Without your assistance, I would have missed my chance; however, yesterday, after a 2 week turnaround time, my disc arrived -- a nice little treasure. So thanks folks, you know who you are.

I'm not in front of my collection at the moment, but I think the name of the Tenko record that impresses me most is _Slope._ She can also be heard on various Frith recordings, often in sampled form (I'd heard once that there was some relationship between the two but I've never had it confirmed). His _Technology of Tears_ definitely has some Tenko samples that work really well.

I wholeheartedly agree with Matt that this album is incredible and Zorn's notes are entertaining and insightful, although John Zorn claims to hate this album and is angry with being involved in it. He said that the person at Warner Bros who put this disc together took the liberty of rearranging the compositions, sewing parts of one piece together with snippets of others - something Zorn would never tolerate if it were done to his own work. Zorn thinks this guy figured that since Stalling was dead that "no one would give a fuck about it." But for those of us who didn't spend our Saturday mornings making audio tapes of Road Runner cartoons, this disc is a gift from god on high. Buy it now!

Dick, I was looking forward to its release. However, I've come across nothing in my searching. Have any of you folks heard anything about such a release? much appreciated. -nick ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- From remi@jessica.ina.fr Wed Jul 12 01:50:48 1995 Subject: "The Carl Stalling Project" Hi, I have never seen this CD anywhere in France. But I've heard a lot about it. Is it commonly available in the US ? Is it under John Zorn's name ? I'm going to spend a few days in NYC and then LA during the summer. Any suggestion for good CD stores to go look (other than Tower Records) ??? Also, as far as I can remember, C. Stalling composed a lot of music for animated films. What did Zorn do with it ? Is it a collection of new interpretations of older musical themes ? Or a jazzier version ? And are there other similar, or related, projects (related to "cartoon music" ) by Zorn or other jazz musicians ???
