Description
Artist: John Zorn Title: Pool Label: Parachute Records Date: 1980 Condition (vinyl/cover): vg++ very clean/vg++ super nice
Notes: Mega rare avant-garde jazz record from composer John Zorn. LPs are both in great condition and gatefold cover is completely intact- some shelf-wear but otherwise looks nicely taken care of.
John Zorn is a multitalented composer, arranger, and saxophonist whose music has often been classed as avant-garde. Yet it is difficult to classify his style, since his works are so wildly eclectic, touching on jazz, punk jazz, rock and classical, Middle Eastern-flavored styles including Klezmer, pop underground styles that include so-called trash and speed metal, and various aleatoric styles of composition he has dubbed "game pieces" and "file card pieces," both of which afford much leeway to the performer. Zorn has been indefatigable in the creation of new forms of expression and is unafraid to show the influence of others on him, from the works of Ives, Cage, Anthony Braxton, and Derek Bailey to the film music of Ennio Morricone and cartoon music of Carl Stalling. As a saxophonist, Zorn is a virtuoso and has performed with various groups over the years, including the several he has founded: Naked City, Painkiller, and Moonchild Trio. Zorn's works have appeared on more than 400 recordings and he has recorded for a variety of labels, including Elektra/Nonesuch, Avant, Parachute, and his own enterprise Tzadik.
