With his shaggy-bowl haircut, thrift store clothing and indie-pop musical interludes, Demetri Martin has become the comic-du-jour for many twentysomething hipsters. Of course, many in the hip underground (or whatever it's called these days) don't know much about stand-up comedy albums. Quite often, those quick to tell you that "Demetri Martin is an absolute genius" usually only possess a knowledge of stand-up comedy that is limited to a few mp3 files of Bill Hicks on one of his usual "I-Hate-Everything!" rants. Those quick to crown Demetri Martin are probably not familiar with Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, Richard Pryor or Sam Kinison. Martin is a smart comic, but he isn't the pioneer of his style.
The talents for which Martin is receiving so many accolades for were first delivered much better more than 20 years ago from Steven Wright. To this day, Wright remains the King of Dead-Pan One-Liners. Strangely enough, Wright has only released one album, I Have A Pony, in 1985. Wright does a good job of showing how the Dead-Pan One-Liners are really done.
As a couple of others have reported on their blogs, someone is on the hunt and deleting tons of links. It seems everything on my blog has been removed. I've been hearing about some guy named "Hanzsun" who apparently goes around deleting everyone else's stuff in hopes of boosting traffic at his own site. That's pathetic. Jeez, I don't even have a lot of stuff here!
Stay tuned. In the meantime, if there is such a "Hanzsun"...
The Complete Africa/Brass Sessions was recorded in the Spring of 1961, and it remains John Coltrane's only flirtation with orchestral jazz (a 17-piece orchestra). Arranged by Coltrane's then-alto saxophonist Eric Dolphy, this is still one of the most overlooked Coltrane releases, and its full of hints as to where Coltrane was about to venture musically. It's both fast and slow, loud and soft, elevating and enervating. But most of all - this is seriously busy and often dark.
Let My Children Hear Music is regarded by Charles Mingus as his own favorite album. By 1972, Mingus was miles away from the fast hard-bop of his early years and was now almost exclusively devoted to orchestral jazz. This is an album ripe with themes of death and things-gone-wrong, and its use of a string section is still rare by today's standards.

Attention all Karate Kid fans! You will just love this music video, even though the actual music is quite bad (I've never heard of this band). How did they get all these actors together again? The cameo at the end of the video is the best part of it. (7:44 min / SFW)
