The CD has a constant hiss, periodic scratches, pops and fuzz as if it truly was an ancient recording from an unearthed album. The music itself consists of minimal melody (what else if new) with Eye creating soft nonsense noises rather than his usual onslaught of pain.

I don't think Zorn had anything to do with it other than getting it released on his label. _Giant Robot_, which was released on Sony Japan, is much better musically and in terms of production/recording and has some of the same music but no drum machines. (There is also a cassette that appears to be called _Giant Robot_ but is very different. It can sometimes be purchased at Buckethead shows.) _Day of the Robot_ is quite different from the earlier CDs, for one thing most tracks have jungle beats. For another, there are no voice samples. Great guitar and very well recorded.

All the nerves are connected to the brain, right? But brain surgeons have not been able yet to explain what makes the difference between somebody who has some creative skills and the others. For that reason, the physiological point of view does not bring a lot of water to our mill. At least, that's the way I think. Hence I will stick to a theory of perception point of view. I believe (and I am not the only one), that our appreciation of things is a subtle mix between sensual and intellectual perceptions. There are things that I mainly appreciate from a sensual point of view, like eating; and things that are so complex that my senses are of no recourse to appreciate it.

Spruance is involved with some of the San Fran avant garde jazz scene by way of his association with Ben Goldberg (they play in a quartet with Trevor Dunn and Dougie Bowne), and I'm not sure what else (but there is probably more). Aside from the Frisell disc, Kang also appears on the new quintet recording by Joe McPhee, which I recall also features Stuart Dempster (and is released through the Deep Listening label). Anything by McPhee is pretty much guaranteed to be superb (I have yet to be disappointed with any of his works), and once Kang is thrown in to the mix, the possibilities seem limitless. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 7 May 1996 13:15:04 -0500 (CDT) From: "James A.
