Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

DJ Peter:
“Sigbjørn Krieger? Mr. BFD? You talked to him?”
“The famous Danish control freak himself. And it wasn’t a bad meeting.”
“I like the way his records sound. What does he mean anyone?”
“He suggested Jack DeJohnette on drums.”
“Uh-oh,” said the Bear, recoiling. “I’m afraid of that guy. You ever notice how he always sounds better than anyone he plays with? I can’t afford that at my stage of my,” he gave a plosive little laugh, “career.”
The Bear Comes Home (A Novel) by Rafi Zabor, p. 152
