13 GAUGE / DIETER HENKEL / KLATZKER-CORSANO DUO

3... 2... 1... Zero

(Hot Cars Warp Records) Used LP $7.00

13 Gauge (Chris Corsano, Aaron Mullan, and George Moore) dedicate one side to alto legend Marion Brown and render a post-core, Chick Corea-less “Afternoon of a Georgia Faun.” Their third piece, “Montana Fix,” loosely pays tribute to mushroom legend John Cage. The Klatzker-Corsano duo (cello and drums, respectively) follows with a slightly more melodic but no less frazzled approach. Dieter Henkel abandons his main instrument (drums) and jams guitar, trumpet, and twiddled knobs into the works, bringing this 1997 release to a screeching halt. Hand-painted paste-on cover affixed to old Chopin jacket. Edition of 500

Diadal

(Hot Cars Warp Records) Used 2xLP $25.00

Sounding to Mark Allen Cam like haunting lost demos from Nico’s Marble Index, “alternated with hippie sunrise improv insanity, the first few cuts on each side are weird, skeletal, lo-fi ballads alternately sung by Rita Ackermann and Jutta Koether, sometimes in German, rounding off with a live improv jam with members of No-Neck Blues Band.” From 1998. Printed jackets with hand-made sticker collage added. First record is playable, second record is etched.
