There is an enormous lack of this type of sound and performance going on in Chicago, which is so unfortunate.<br /><br />Thanks again for your blog !<br /><br />Evan of Notice RecordingsNotice Recordingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15733821736587010150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-24630179403240758732010-01-08T19:15:52.762-05:002010-01-08T19:15:52.762-05:00Yuko's pics are here:

I've seen him a lot more than her, but I might agree, at the very least up there with the Kelley/Daniell trio at the first Quake and the Toshi duo at ABC No Rio. <br /><br />I thought the key was Sean's initial entry, maybe 8-10 minutes in. Jason was working at very low volume, but Sean's decision to come in over him, becoming the primary voice for a stretch, really fuelled the rest of the set. <br /><br />anyway, a very exciting and inspiring set, the best I've seen in NYC since Jason's last visit here, the night with Lambkin and nmperign in May 2008. Yuko should have some pix up in the next day or so.Jon Abbeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16554860803665562805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-68031260958043422642010-01-07T18:55:37.872-05:002010-01-07T18:55:37.872-05:00Thanks, Michael.

Lescalleet reall...In general I agree w/ yr review. Lescalleet really brings it out in his musical collaborators - recalling his duo w/Bhob Rainey @ IPR back in 08, I really got the sense that Sean was given a great space to let loose (in the manner that he does), producing louder, more aggressive sound than I've heardfrom him in the past. As usual w/him, intense timing and great tone. Lescalleet demonstrated an amazing ability to move his sound from transparency to an enveloping density w/ease.<br /><br />I felt the duo w/Pauline Monin was very interesting...musically it was as arresting as the first set, but about 1/2way through I found Monin's movement lost it's connection w/Lescalleet, and that once she began to rise from the tape, her movement vocabulary was limited and lacked in matching the expressive development of Jason's music. I thought the opening was brilliant, where she really used the unspooled tape as a part of her body, and less of a prop.<br /><br />and yeah I'm guilty of stuffing my fingers in ear...but what a sound! so intense and alive. another great night of music from Lescalleet.<br /><br />and good to see everyone there as well!billygomberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06083588692389783984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-26978868516799691702010-01-07T13:24:18.652-05:002010-01-07T13:24:18.652-05:00This is a brilliant review.This is a brilliant review.Michael Wallernoreply@blogger.com
