Testing the limits of cognitive dissonance…

by writing a paper about Anthony Braxton while listening to the Dresden Dolls.

Strangely (or not so strangely) Sonic Youth seems fine for this experiment, as does King Crimson’s “Red” album.

Not so the Jorma Kaukonnen, or the Bash and Pop.

I left the Braxton at work, or I’d be listening to that, of course.

    Re: Ahhh…the “Red” album

    Being the romantic, I liked almost all King Crimson up to and including the first two albums with the new Krimson. After that it all got a little musically out there for me. I like Adrian Belew’s songwriting balancing Robert fripps esoterica….yo Adrian!

    Yeah. I don’t know how I ended up a fan of this album, don’t even know where I first heard it. It’s not like much of my collection at all. But I listen to it pretty frequently.
