[NewMusic] Roscoe

[Jon Raskin]

>From Larry Och's

I just saw Amiri Baraka “read”  at UC Berkeley last night. I put “read” in parenthesis because it was more than reading... And More than inspiring; absolutely “the shit;” something that can’t be described, only experienced first hand. no: not U-Tube either... So: I highly recommend that YOU go to see him and Roscoe in San Francisco next Thursday. If I was in town that night, I’d be there even if I had to cancel my own gig. It’s at the Victoria Theater. I’m not a member of that list of musicians’ discussions, but if you would like to post this on that site so some people who SHOULD be there do go, that is fine by me. The fire still burns inside Mr. Baraka. He’s going to inspire Roscoe too. It will be a special event.
