  1. Gastr del Sol - Crookt, Crackt, or Fly

    The thing about improvisatory/avant-garde music is that, sometimes, it's write-only...and a few tracks here fall into that category.

    Some are interesting, interlocking, repeating riffs, which suggest a melody.

    Some are "I threw a tray of silverware down some stairs while reciting abstract poetry".

    Either way, probably don't want to put this on during a cocktail party. :-)

  2. Gastr del Sol - We Have Dozens of Titles

    To have the productivity of the restless and dissatisfied … and, of course, the talent.

    (Chicago is clearly a hotbed of experimental and improvised music.)

    This collects all sorts of live and extra tracks from the band in a great little post-mortem package. Nice that David and Jim were able to get together and do it after all these years.
