[NewMusic] slusser's article

[Jacob Lindsay]

Hey Dave,

Thanks for the review.  I saw that book at the store a
couple weeks back.  It looked interesting but
ultimately I didn't buy it b/c it looked like most of
the musical references made were to pop music.  I
wasn't sure if I would be able to translate this into
information that would be useful for me.

Also, I'm not sure I buy your equation of textural
innovation in pop music to textural innovation in
improvised music, since per your example in the first
instance, it seems to be an attempt to fill in a gap
left by the dumbing-down of popular music, were in the
case of later seems to be dues to a conscious move
away from idiomatic references.

P.s. Thanks to Suki for another nice looking edition
of the calendar.
