Mendigo 02.16.09	cool stuff as far as I know these (which are most of them except 3, 8, 13, 15 &16) seriously needs some Charles Mingus (The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady is my favorite jazz album), Ornette Coleman, more John Zorn Bands (Bar Kokhba, Masada, PainKiller,...) and Thelonious Monk. btw, I'm just listening to Bohren's Midnight Radio, which is even more sparse and gloomy than their later works. and I've recently been digging John Zorn's 50th Birthday Celebration series, especially the Bar Kokhba concerts are wonderful.
username345 02.16.09	I really need to get Midnight Radio, and I should have added a Bar Kokhba album. Haven't got any Charles Mingus or Coleman, appalingly. You'd probably like 3 a lot as a Bohren fan. I think they were strongly influenced by Angelo Badalamenti who composed 3. Not really that album in particular, but it's the best one.
username345 02.16.09	From the Twin Peaks soundtrack http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbomWWRnnDA Very Bohren & Der Club Of Gore-esque.
Mendigo 02.16.09	I've just added it to my wishlist ;)
Mendigo 02.16.09	didn't know that song was by Julee Cruise. btw, do you know the Fantomas version of the song (from the album The Director's Cut)? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-SM25JWAeU ;)
username345 02.16.09	Nah, it's by Angelo Badalamenti. He composed all the music on 3 too, Julee Cruise just sings. I never knew Fantomas played it, that version is incredible.. I need to listen to them more.
Douchebag 02.16.09	His in a trance! A Jazz Trance! It's a very difficult procedue getting him out of it...
username345 02.16.09	Howard Moon: I'm driving, it's my music we're having. Vince Noir: Not Jazz! Howard Moon: [lifts cassette] No. This my friend is Jazz Funk. Vince Noir: Oh. The double? That's even worse! Howard Moon: The mixture. The cerebral musicality of Jazz mixed with the visceral groove of funk. Vince Noir: Funk? Howard Moon: Imagine that. Vince Noir: Funk? Howard Moon: What a combo. Vince Noir: Jazz' deformed cousin! Damn, I remind myself of Howard Moon far too much =(
Douchebag 02.16.09	and THIS, Is the best of Gary Numan!
AliW1993 02.16.09	Howard : always thought I'd fade away to some slap bass... but I dont suppose that's a style of music you're familiar with. Hitcher : I beg your pardon, I'm one of the leading exponents of the jazz funk movement, I'm the slap bass president for gods sake. It used to be Mark King, but we had a thumb duel, and I smashed him to the ground like a blond tent peg. You love it you slaaaggggsss!!! Can you feel the funk?
thebhoy 02.16.09	I need to listen to John Zorn, I think? Listen to Mendigo, all solid recs. ALSO, I need Kind of Blue, but if you like that, probably check out In A Silent Way, by Davis, it's the bridge between his older stuff and the more experimental fusion stuff. I'm also real interested in listening to some Bohren & Der Club of Gore, they seem interesting.
Douchebag 02.16.09	He did want Jazz Train played at his funeral...I couldn't actually find it, but I DID find a song about a train. *plays Thomas the Tank Engine theme.
