W m m M A ^ k 2A Thursday, February 21,1985 Daily Nexus Jean-Luc Ponty Departing from Perfection

Jean-Luc Ponty started his recent concert with a bit of dramatic suspense. As the curtains opened last Wednesday night he stood with no violin, but instead playing keyboards. It wasn’t until he picked up his unusually shaped electric violin that I felt completely involved in his music. There was satisfaction in seeing Ponty perform after hearing what I always thought was possibly a violin but was never quite sure in many cases. Being able to see Ponty playing his violin gave a sense of the inventiveness and originality of his music. Armed also with a full backup band, Ponty • was very successful in presenting music that seemed to be 8 much less effective on his latest albums. j: The difference between Ponty’s performance of the title track “Open Mind” the night of the concert as opposed to • the recording was that there were people playing the 2 drums, bass and instead of computers. I’m not sure | that Ponty understands that it is the lack of continuity, the • nature to vary the music each time it is played and the Jean -Lu c Ponty■ ability to make mistakes that make “live” performances so valuable. Ponty did not fully understand this when he did “Computer Incantation for World Peace” off of one of his latest albums and “Individual Choice”, where he un­ fortunately was accompanied by only his computer. The contrast between this and earlier pieces with his band was obvious. This encounter with automation was only temporary that night, unlike his latest album, and soon Ponty was back 3 with all of the real artistry and the “limitations” of the rest I of the band. Bass player Keith Jones was, for me, the most | satisfying of the band.

What? Oh yes, the concert! Just about the whole of the Geffery Morgan L.P. was performed that night. The curtain rose with “Riddle Me” and “As Always You Were Wrong Again,” the same songs which open that album. From the start, something was wrong with the sound mix. The music came through extra loud and clear but the vocals sounded as though they came from an oatmeal bowl — real goopy-like. The audience didn’t mind that much. We were movin’ to the groovin’ as best we could, enjoying the spectacle of UB40’s eight members plus two on horns rockin’ in a roots style.
