@@DTTaTa According to John Zorn, Naked City was intended as a "composition workshop" to test the limits of composition and improvisation in a traditional rock band lineup. And there is a lot of improvisation here, though under strict rules set by the composer. Notice the way he directs the band.
I’ve been obsessing over John Zorns music for the past 5 years. Been collecting as much of his works as I can. Pure genius. Zorn and Zappa forever. His label Tzadik is one of the best labels ever.
@@allotrope2978 From his project Naked City, highly recommend self titled and Radio. Other projects, highly highly recommend Masada Electric Masada Bar Kohkba Sextet The Dreamers Gnosis Insurrection Book of Angels Magick Simulacrum Hope this helps!
@@allotrope2978 one more thing, he doesn’t have a lot of his albums or projects on streaming services. He believes in buying physical copies. I recommend going on Discogs or his label website to purchase his music! I have been buying his CDs and just burning them into iTunes and then transferring them into my phone.
Each of these guys is completely amazing. I was in my late teens/early 20's back in the 90s, going to shows in NYC at least once a week. So many great ones. Joey Baron was always so fun to watch live. Bill Frissell was mesmerizing. I remember seeing Masada at Town Hall, Paul Motian Trio at the Village Vanguard, and Fred Frith solo at the Knit (one of the best shows I've ever been to). Grateful to have been a part of that scene at such an exciting time.
Another reminder about Bill Frisell's amazing virtuosity and eclectic approach. At one time I found Zorn hard to take but I must admit that now, at 70 years of age, I feel that I am growing to like some of his music. Thanks for an interesting upload!
+Leslie Nelson You might also enjoy some of his more modern stuff like 'Mount Analogue'. It has a lot of improvisation and block structure like this but is much more 'mature' sounding for lack of a better word.
seeing as this is from the year Grand Guignol came out, I really hoped to see them do the Debussy cover, as I absolutely love that one. could anyone here point me at a concert vid where they're doing 'La Cathédrale Engloutie' (if they ever did that live, that is)?
If only they had Mike Patton, what a show it could have been... EDIT: Not saying it isn't an already impressive performance! EDEDIT: Silly me, it seems Zorn and Patton have been collaborating on a regular basis since 1991. :-D
Patton always did a fine job with them, but Eye was just THE perfect vocalist for Naked City. Besides, even though Patton sounded good on these songs, he mostly just stood still on stage compared to Eye. But to each his own.
Does anyone know where I find piano sheets for songs like Asylum? I would love to play something like this and most songs of Schönberg for example are too calm for me :D
yep :) I believe it was one of the first public performances of Metal Tov, they're all reading from charts. The later performances were much more coherent.
i can't believe they have this written down as sheet music.
Вот я сейчас о том же подумал. Как вот это всё можно записать нотами,и главно-как потом эти ноты сыграть?!!
"the existance of smooth jazz implies that there is rough jazz"
this is it.
You could say it is roughly jazz
Which is great but I could do without the insane shrieking.
I wouldn't call this jazz, there is very little improvisation but definitely amazing music

I'm a Zappa fanatic and I want to get into Zorn. I know of Grand Guignol but where should I look after that?

Frank Zappa
@@allotrope2978 Spillane and Big Gundown are very accessible albums
I’ve been a John zone fan since 1958 :)
how was his playing at 5 years old?
Speed Freaks is such an insane song, a whole bunch of different style jazz jingles and licks thrown together as if from a sampler.
must've been amazing seeing naked city live

I cant overstate the full effect John Zorn had on me in 1990 and the 3 decades of ripples through my own creative output. This is amazing to watch...

Thanks Ryan, I will look into "Mount Analogue", sounds interesting.
Check out his NPR Tiny Desk Concert where he does a bunch of Beatles songs unaccompanied. It's incredible stuff.
interstellish Thanks, I will do that.
@@docnelson2008 Dude - Interzone is better - les "maturity" more childish fun!!! Interzone, Dictee/Liber Novus and Spillaine ... best ones....
i love the headbanger in the audience! :))
guguigugu I like that he's head banging to a hard bop groove.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Listening to John Zorn for the first time is like going to take a sip of water only to find out it’s spicy v8
I don't feel so lost if Bill is listening and searching too. Music is a journey ❤
I like when Zorn screams. Would like to see more of it. He seems to be good at it!
He seems to enjoy doing it more with his sax
i haven't watched this concert in awhile...but what a joy. Watching joey baron is just pure joy!
John zorn has changed the way I look at music and changed who I am.
are you saying john zorn turned you gay?
@@jonathanjones7058Let's not get our hopes up, john
In the full recording of this show, they play Leng T'che, and Kevin Sharp (of Brutal Truth) doubles on the vocals with Eye.
zubizuva I've seen the video of Leng T'che. Seeing Keving Sharp and Eye was pretty awesome.
🤘🤘🤘
THIS CONCERT IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fred Frith is my Hero
21:04 Zorn's just vibing🤣
Those cats are on fire
one of the most sublime experiences in musick, deserves to be archived and preserved 4 many generations
It's a shame that Naked City is not on Spotify, except for one live album. 😢
I've been a john Zorn fan since the 80s this is simply amazing.

me encantaría la experiencia de asistir a disfrutar y verlos en vivo estos tipos me molan amo su música...... ideal para mii
Fantastic!! music for the chosen!!
one of my favorites from years and years ago
It doesn't get any better than this - thanks for posting.
Nice to hear Zorn play 'straight' sometimes too, like that opening melody.
Thanks a trillion for the upload. It really means a lot for the few :) A true relic. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
un régal musical, d'énergie et d'originalité!!!
Insane. Always liked this band but never got to see them live, thank you so much for this bit of madness.
Eye is the greatest.
Probably the future of music as we know it!
here we go
This is incredible! Thank you for posting
5:02 That one guy wearing a Morbid Angel t-shirt headbanging on his own while everyone else is just chilling 🤣🤣🤣
It's good that music and performance like this exist...
This is what you get when you mix deathmetal, hardcore and jazz together I think.
You left out about 4 other genres/forms, but yeah
Mr. Bungle owes much to Naked City.
Raphaël Bovey really?
Zorn produced their self titled, so Mike probably learned alot from him.
joder esto existia cuando apenas habia nacido y ahora yo quisiera presenciarlo carajo me encantaaaaa
I've been searching for this entire thing for AGES!! Thank you SO MUCH for uploading this!!!
Damn. Thanks for the upload!
handsome grooves - yes indeed!
Joey Baron is a goddamn nation treasure. He is our Judi Dench. And we got the better deal.
At last!!!!!!!
Thankyou forever!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some of the best music ever!
this is so metal
This is definitely not what i expected the band to look like
holy fuck this is almost 30 years ago
Still one of the best albums of the era.
I missed out on these guys man.
1992 was quite a time for experimental noise extreme music
Благодаря этой группе я понял всё! правда не сразу
Бро)))
This Truly is the Evolution of.
John Chang would have been amazing on vocals.
Esto es pura genialidad.
Peter and Paul sent me... (I wonder if anyone else was sent by them and gets the reference)
17:47 bonehead
amzing live!,yeah!!
the catacombs is too great xD
Awesome show
any tab somewhere ?
seeing as this is from the year Grand Guignol came out, I really hoped to see them do the Debussy cover, as I absolutely love that one.
could anyone here point me at a concert vid where they're doing 'La Cathédrale Engloutie' (if they ever did that live, that is)?
29:05 oops...
29:36 oopsie daisy (joey baron)... and thus metaltov goes into shit :-(
Yup... even those guys are humans - surprise!
50+ minutes of great stuff aside from one single flawed tune, anyway
thank you! never heard these guys!
30:13 personal reference
If only they had Mike Patton, what a show it could have been...
EDIT: Not saying it isn't an already impressive performance!

Yeah, Eye does give a full bodied performance, doesn't he? :-)
Mike is my top three fab vocalist besides roger waters & ozzy
Mike is my top four best vocalist besides roger waters & ozzy & Freddie Mercury
With this concert we can clearly see where did Patton "borrow" his vocal and stage craziness from.
Joey Baron is a replicant of himself,is always the same after 30 years.
would love to hear a duet with Eye and Yoko
19:16 the Catacumbs
grosses kino Weltsound und mein Respekt #Artantifrost
I'm gonna be a sunset surfer for Hallowe'en
superb!
still love it!!
I am in that corner of TH-cam again, I guess..............
this is really spellbinding jtfc
It would work brilliantly in cartoons.
snagglepuss goes sooo fucking hard fuck 30:12
For real!!!
loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Bill frisell espectacular
vamo lo wachoh!
I can't find this on Spotify
your pfp gave me big nostalgia
it's not but painkiller is
Yeah, John Zorn doesn’t believe in streaming platforms. He wants his fans to buy his physicals :)
I'm still not getting Eye. Sometimes I do, getting there, but I really don't.
That's good
Israel Janeiro he’s better on the album. His voice always sounds shaky live.
Does anyone know where I find piano sheets for songs like Asylum? I would love to play something like this and most songs of Schönberg for example are too calm for me :D
Robert DeNiro on Bass Gahtar.
Gany Mede No, he's Dennis Hopper
nope. he's fucking jesus !!!!!
does anyone know what bass guitar is fred using?
Modulus
🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Frisell is mixed kinda high at this gig.
Свобода!
Mark Ruffalo on guitar
Shock Corridor make me think to the Samuel Fuller movie : a real optical music (like Asylum)
Lol, Eye.
BW brought me here👍
THEY GOT FUCKING HANATARASH?!
Yup, he’s on a lot of John Zorns records.
bagunça organizada
Did Frisell come in too early at 29:05?
yep :)
I believe it was one of the first public performances of Metal Tov, they're all reading from charts.
The later performances were much more coherent.
One phone !!???
Bill Frisell reminds me of Woody Allen or Rick Moranis playing guitar lol - hell of a player tho.
