Re: DAVID TORN'S NEW CD "PREZENS"

["Dave Trenkel" <improv@peak.org>]

I picked it up on Tuesday the minute it arrived at the store. Awesome 
disc, 
I've probably listened to ot 20 times since. Very dense material, each 
tune 
seems to flow through many states, yet it all hangs together. Great band 
as 
well, I've been a fan of Tim Berne for about 20 years now. Taborn and 
Rainey 
form the core of several of Berne's bands. It's cool to see Torn in a more 
band setting with this CD, it seems like most of his output has come more 
from Torn solo in the studio, with the exception of Polytown and Cloud 
About 
Mercury. I'd argue that this band eclipses both of those for serious 
avant-jazz chops.

It's also cool to see Torn on ECM again, maybe this disc will have a 
chance 
of staying in print, unlike, unfortunately, the majority of Torn's back 
catalog.

Anyway, it's an amazing, mind-rearranging album, I can't begin to 
recommend 
it highly enough.

Ooops I shoulda changed the subject line on that last one . . .

Here it is again:

Hi all,

Just thought I'd pipe in here and say how much I like David Torn's new CD 
"Prezens."

It arrived yesterday and I've been playing it in iTunes at work (much to 
my 
co-worker's dismay).

It's pretty darn terrific . . . grab it if you can.

And, David, wherever you are, great work!

Your music just keeps getting better, weirder, and more creative with 
every 
release.
