The initial tendency is to dismiss this recording as one of those failed experiments from the progressive-rock era, and the opening band on Disc One definitely invites that treatment with what appears to be an almost deliberately provocative aimlessness. parts of Disc Two, which seem buried in noise and masses of sound that don't go anywhere over many minutes, have similar problems. In between, however, are sublimely beautiful virtuoso passages for various soloists and small units within the orchestra. Alan Skidmore, Elton Dean et. al. get some great moments on the core of the first disc, which evolves out of the annoying big-band noodling of the opening into a swinging, big-band progressive-rock sound with elements of bop as well. There are vocal passages on this record, mostly built around Julie Tippett's gloomy, doom-laden Crimson-like words, and they're pretty but they're not a major part of "Septober Energy." Unfortunately, there is also more meandering, and just as it looks like the finale has pulled it together, with a very pretty and understated acoustic piano section featuring Keith Tippett solo, the piece loses it in an extended and very repetitive part for the full orchestra that goes nowhere and takes forever to fade. In fairness, the sound on the CD is excellent, and the second half of Disc One in particular is worth hearing, but there's too much here that isn't -- and too much that also sounds like those crashing sax-based sound explosions that puntuate King Crimson albums like Islands -- for anyone except hardcore fans of Soft Machine et al. ~ Bruce Eder

Why they kept these 19 recordings locked up in some vault for 40 years is beyond comprehension. A chunk of the Live at Sugar Hill material -- recorded at a club in the Bay Area -- was issued by Fantasy as Boogie Chillun on LP in 1972. It is available on CD minus one track under the ...

This 4-CD box set contains the rest of those two famous European tours in 2003 with the same line-up: Kevin O'Neil on guitar, Kevin Norton on percussion, Andy Eulau on bass, and Anthony Braxton on saxophone. What you have here is 20 different standards (
Released a year after 23 Standards (Quartet) 2003, this second four-disc set doubles the amount of material released from Braxton's tours of Europe in early and late 2003, with the same lineup (Braxton on saxes, Kevin O'Neil on guitar, bassist Andy Eulau, and drummer Kevin Norton), same focus on jazz standards, and even the same dates in some cases. Together, the two four-CD sets released by Leo Records present recordings from ten different European dates (two in February 2003 and eight in November of that year). This second set continues with the editorial approach used in the first one: each disc consists of tracks from different concerts, ...

Selections from an Interview:No Need for Antacid… SourBelly is the Remedy! By Angie Luebke Perhaps you’ve heard of them, perhaps you’re still in the dark, bumping around lost and aimless. Let me flip the switch and shed a little light on things. According to Rex, Lead Guitar/vox, the band SourBelly formed “a few years ago, during a guys’ weekend in 2001. Jay and I had been struggling to come up with a band name. After a hard night of binge drinking and beer olympics on our annual boys camping weekend, one of the guys woke up in the morning and indicated that he had a “sour belly”… I looked at Jay and we both knew that had to be the name.” Disregarding BassPlayer’s suggestion, “I always thought a good name for a band would be Crab Juice Band-Aid.” But who is SourBelly, you ask? The group consists of Chad Hopfensperger (Rex) – Lead guitar/vox; Jay Uhlenbrauck – Rhythm guitar/vox; BassPlayer (simply known as BassPlayer) – Bass/vox; and Jason Hodkiewicz – Drums/vox. Their style of music is described best by BassPlayer, “I call it "Good Rock." Not too heavy, not too light, it’s just right...like Goldilocks and that porridge.” Or as Rex says, “Tough to categorize, some people call us “roots rock.” Some call us “funked up” roots rock. There’s a little bit of everything in our music. We’ve got some funk, some blues, some straight up rock, a couple heavier ones as well as some mellower tunes.” One of my favorite questions to ask musicians is what their first cassette/CD was. Or in some cases, vinyl. Jason’s response was “The first 45 I ever had was the Hustle. I was very disappointed when my little brother broke it. Just to clarify, I was four at the time. The first album I bought was probably a Kiss album.” BassPlayer’s first cassette was a blank Memorex tape and first CD was Michael Jackson "Bad." We won’t hold that against him. Rex’s first cassette was Billy Squier’s Emotions in Motion, with his first CD being U2’s Rattle and Hum. Jay bought some used AC/DC tapes at a rummage sale when he was in grade school. Reminiscing to first concerts, Jason’s first concert was when he saw Kiss in Green Bay; BassPlayer’s first was with his grandma to see the Statler Brothers, but the first concert of choice was Ace of Base opening for C&C Music Factory; Jay’s first was Ratt, Great White and Warrant. “Woo hoo! Rock and roll!” while Rex’s first was Great White/Whitesnake in 1987 or ‘88. The next question I asked made it pretty obvious that a lot of the guys had the same taste in music. When I asked what 5 CD’s could they not live without (after some grumbling about only getting to pick 5), Jason decided Pink Floyd-Wish You Were Here, Ray Charles-Greatest Hits, Eagles-Greatest Hits 2, Dave Mathews-Crash, Miles Davis-Kind of Blue; Jay listed Blind Melon - Soup, Jeff Buckley - Grace, Cold Play - Parachutes, Wilco - Being There, Beatles - The White Album; Rex said Blind Melon – Blind Melon, Blind Melon – Soup, Wilco – Being There, Phish – Farmhouse, and Led Zeppelin – Physical Graffiti; and BassPlayer listed William ...
