I write, last night at Cross-Continental Spirit, with Ray Blues on his sax:

"Like the ebb and flow of a river, free, pure music finds cycles and streams, runs up against obstacles and around them, too, and swirls along its course. An endless cartography of terrain to cover. As each drop of water contributes to the whole of the river, so do the notes of a session get caught up in progression. A quick view of the tumultuousness created in a moment, in every moment of living. Sounds and liquids mix up the colors of your reflection and sHape you as something infinitely greater than that which you know you are."

I'm reading a book on the biography of "the New Music" of the 60s and 70s, influences of John Coltrane and Ornette Coleman and the like. As serious as your life, by Valerie Wilmer.
