    1 The bird, a pigeon was it? or a dove (she'd found there were doves here) flew through the air, its colour lost in what light remained. It might have been the wad of rag she'd taken it for at first glance, flung at the smallest of the boys out there wiping mud from his cheek where it hit him, catching it up by a wing to fling it back where one of them now with a broken branch for a bat hit it high over a bough caught and flung back and hit again into a swirl of leaves, into a puddle from rain the night before, a kind of battered shuttlecock moulting in a flurry at each blow, hit into the yellow dead end sign on the corner opposite the house where they'd end up that time of day. When the telephone rang she'd already turned away, catching breath, and going for it in the kitchen she looked up to the clock: not yet five. Had it stopped? The day was gone with the sun dropped behind the mountain, or what passed for one here rising up from the river. —Hello? she said, —who...? Oh yes no, no he's not here he's... No I'm not, no. No, I'm... Well I'm not his wife no, I just told you. My name is Booth, I don't even know him. We've just... Well if you'll just let me finish! We've just rented his house here, I don't know where Mister McCandless is I've never even met him.

The concept was developed in the PST X series, which provides a suitable basis for the type of fast and dry sounds that perfectly fit the world of Hip-hop & Electronica percussion. It is executed with the DJs 45 set consisting of a 12" Crash, 12" Ride and 12" Hats.

  • BLOGCRITICS.ORG Music DVD Review: John Scofield
    BLOGCRITICS.ORG Music DVD Review: John Scofield - New Morning: The Paris Concert John Scofield has been one of the most important and influential jazz guitarists and composers in the world since he first arrived on the scene back in the mid '70s. He has played and collaborated with such jazz legends as George Duke, Charles Mingus, Jaco Pastorius, and Miles Davis, and has gone on to release over 30 albums under his own name since releasing his self-titled debut in 1977. Admittedly, the type of traditional jazz that Scofield plays has never really been my thing. Whenever I need the occasional jazz guitar fix, I will usually turn to jazz fusion guys like Al DiMeola, Robben Ford, Larry Carlton, Frank Gambale, or Mike Stern, who tend to fuse more rock and blues into the mix. Listening to instrumental jazz guitar can be about as easy as listening to speed metal. It's typically not something you're going to play in the background as you are cooking the evening meal, like you might do with a smooth jazz album from Lee Ritenour. This style really requires your focus and attention to truly reap the full benefits. I nearly broke out in a sweat halfway through the first track on this DVD. New Morning: The Paris Concert was filmed in high definition at the New Morning club in Paris, France on April 23rd, 2010. The DVD immediately dives into the performance just as Scofield is plucking the first few notes of the opening track, "Ten Taken." Being more accustomed to rock and blues, I often found myself thinking that Scofield was hitting a lot of wrong notes, which is obviously not the case, but since jazz guitarists rarely stay within the bounds of the common pentatonic and blues scales that our ears are more accustomed to hearing, it can take your brain some time to wrap around these strange notes it is hearing.

She took a chance on a rookie and treated me like a veteran. I owe thanks to Kimberli Bindschatel for opening my eyes to the possibilities of independent publishing. Her success with her own writing motivated me to keep chasing my writing goals. Dr. Jim Sheard, an author and avid golfer, provided me with wise counsel, encouragement, and friendship early on in my writing efforts, often while we commiserated about our golfing woes and maladies.

    All translations by Michele Steele. Newsletter 4: And they’re off Paris, France October 30 2002 Hi everyone, and to all the new recipients of this newsletter – which will become livelier and livelier as we go. First thanks to everyone who was present at our departure from Vitry Le Francois, even those who hadn’t slept much, and those who couldn’t partake in the good red wine and “saucission” today. Those who saw us take off from La Marne must have seen the several difficulties we encountered – certainly the fatigue from the party the night before took its toll, but the 120 km/hour wind was one of our biggest obstacles. Yes – we have met our first enemy, swift and terrible moving direct from Brittany, picking up speed as it crosses the Parisian plains. This new adversary has considerably decreased our progress, we ride along at about 8 kilometers an hour on average. That’s how we end up camping at Somessous, barely 30 kilometers away from Vitry. We stay for 13 hours thanks to daylight savings time, not too much to allow us to recover enough to meet our invisible combatant, the wind. Nonetheless, this first day allows us some surprises, with the meeting of an unexpected person – Rene Flinois, the owner of a bar in Fere Champenoise, a man who walked to Tokyo from Paris before becoming a reporter in Afghanistan for 6 years. He gives us pointers on our map, a quick photo lesson and some advice on taking care of our feet and backsides. The two following days finally see the wind diminish to 0 km/hr, and it’s on a cushion of air, let’s say, a cloud that carries us the 120 km to Paris.
