...the music, and the ass kicking

ooooooohhh...me wants!

It was interesting to see you tied into Huun-Huur-Tu before Tom Waits - usually the progression is the other way around.

Guess the time is ripe for me to give John Zorn another shot.

In the early 80's I'd heard about him while visiting friends attending UNC at Chapel Hill, and bought his "The Art of Zen" album along with CB&TMB's "Strictly Personal", and some old blues 78's at a progressive record store just off the campus, and never gave him another chance. Maybe it was just me, or maybe it is a clinker, but I found it totally unintelligible.

For what it's worth, Tzadik means righteous one in Hebrew.
