ALL: Originality (was: B'Boom)

[Bolts of Ungodly Vision]

>(I was floored in class in college when I saw a video of the ceremony and
>immediately recognised the music) and Ba-Boom is by the Kodo drummers
>(introduced by Koko as being unusual for being in 7/8 time).  I noticed that

I remember an interview w/ Bruford and Pat M. during the double trio era
where they talked about the drumming and from whence they got their ideas
from as a dual percussion batterie. Something similar to Kodo drummers was
mentioned... as well as something abou ritual drumming contests.
I dont remember what the middle part of Moonchild was... I do know in the
bookelt that comes with the Epitaph box that The end thing was just them in
the studio playing off each other and they had to fight to include that on
the album.

Either way, diggin' the "Be happy with what you have to be happy with" EP.
And waiting for the Ladies of the Road 2disc set.
