Tom Cora - Recollection Bruise
In 1987 Ralph Records released Potatoes: A Collection of Folk Songs. Three years later, they were at it again, this time with a similarly tangential compilation called Beets: A Collection of Jazz Songs. Here's a lighthearted little experiment from that album, Recollection Bruise by Tom Cora.
Cora eschews his usual cello for this piece, and instead contributes with loops and turntables. Bobby Previte and George Lewis keep things rolling, but this is all about the collision of strange and unusual noises. In this way it harkens back to the earliest days of jazz, where if you could make your trumpet sound like a dog barking, you could be guaranteed regular work. Fun.
