Nice, especially toward the end. It reminds me of the Seu Jorge covers of Bowie tunes on the Steve Zissou soundtrack, which are amazing interpretations.

I actually got to introduce the band back in 05 (or was it 06?) They are a hep bunch of cats.

Reminds me of the typewriter rhythm used by Dolly Parton and Stewart Copeland in the early eighties.

Thank you much for this post! I am an ardent fan of Ghosty's and have played Dumbo Wins Again far too often. Such harmonies on this song! Your blog and this interview are a happy find. - Sarah

True dat. And it's not like there isn't enough nervous-making news for KC jazzheads, such as the Peachtree-sized hole near 18th & Vine and the Phoenix collapsing back into its ashes.

I did note (and appreciate) the Gatschet mention in P-sax but thought I should mention it here since my mom doesn't read that blog. She finds it crass.

Fortunately, it's not a zero-sum game.

I'd like to believe that the healthy status of the scenes in Denver and St. Louis are a good thing for KC.

Incidentally, www.plasticsax.com mentioned your Gatschet piece in October 24, 2007, post.

Hey Lee, I just shot this vid with Sara Gazarek that is pretty funny (a little long though)...didn't know if you were on her mailing list, but thought you and your readers might enjoy as I know you've covered her progress a bit.

Thanks
