Wow! What an amazing coincidence. I just received Eivind's "Sonic Codex" CD in the mail yesterday and have been enjoying it tremendously. I highly recommend all of his solo discs as well as his efforts with Nils Petter Molvaer and with Jacek Kochan. He's a refreshing new voice in my CD/iTunes collection that gets lots of play. Rick, what a coup if you could persuade him to come to Santa Cruz in '09!!! I'd come down from Oregon just to be in the audience. I'd be willing to help (modestly) sponsor financially (if need be).
