A meeting between two expatriate Chicago musicians Aram Shelton (reeds) and Weasel Walter (drums). Although much of Shelton's documented work reveals a careful deployment of minimalism and an introverted approach to arrangement and melody, his frenetic alto sax playing on Walter's 2006 "Revolt Music" CD alludes to some of the further possibilities of this unexpected union. Utilizing knotty composed statements as a springboard for improvisation, this performance promises maximum interaction. Sudden Oak is the San Francisco duo of John Ward (electric guitar) and Matt Erickson (saxophone) - "the resultant pile-up is a fucking blast, with John drawing huge vectors of feedback and klang from his guitar with a weight of ideas that crosses the post-Hendrix adrenaline mainline of Munehiro Narita with the avant brut ality of Masayuki Takayanagi and when Matt's high, metallic saxophone parts crown the whole deal with blups of severed single-note ferocity it'll have you reaching for your Takayanagi/Abe discs for a back-to-back blast." Paper Legs is the nom de plume for the music of Trevor Healy and Brian Osborne birthed in Brooklyn a few years back. Healy relocated to the San Francisco area in 2006, yet the two maintain the name for their solo and collaborative works. From the KZSU review "Low fi experimental, noise jams with loops and drums and guitar. Moments feel like toy instrument sources, others are clanging cacophonies."
