Ostertag: sampler; David Slusser: electronics; Trey Spruance: guitar;

1992 - Rastascan Records (USA), BRD009 (CD)
Note: "The favorite actress of legendary director King Hu, Xu Feng was one
of the biggest stars in the Chinese film industry and more recently has
become a powerful producer. Game pieces after COBRA tended to be more
tangible than abstract, more dramatic, and this piece, written directly
after COBRA, focuses in on strategic elements resulting in a fast paced
competitive game not unlike the kung fu films Xu Feng starred in. The intro-
duction of sound MODIFIERS and the special instrumentation (although it has
been done with six drummers) helps give the piece a distinctive identity."

PUT THE BLOOD IN THE MUSIC: video by Charles Atlas (1989 - 57 min.)
Zorn also appears with the Spy vs. Spy group in the documentary "Put the
Blood in the Music", on the NY downtown scene. The clip is superior to any
of the cuts on the record, sigh.
From: William Hsu (hsu@walnut.sfsu.edu)
Made by for an arts programme in the UK called "The South Bank Show." The
South Bank Show has been running for many years but I don't think that any
of them have ever been released on video. It's a fairly poor attempt to
say something about the influence that environment or location has on
music (in this case NYC.) The title is supplied by Glenn Branca during
the film. The film has pieces on: John Zorn (includes a live performance
by Spy Vs Spy); Ambitious Lovers (in the studio); Hugo Largo; Sonic Youth.
The last medley is of real interest; it suggests that the entire perfor-
mance was recorded and then edited down. If they ever plan to release
this on video, let's hope they restore it to its full length. The video
airs on PBS occasionally so keep a blank video tape around.
From: Sonic Youth discography by Rob Vaughn

Oh! MORO - Video Magazine 1 (Japanese tape - VHS 60min.)
Zorn appears with Bill Frisell and Yamatsuka Eye. The set is very short
(less than a minute) and you can hardly recognize Zorn ... Not really
worth buying just to see Zorn.
