From Documentary (Part 2) : BBC Radio 3 : London, England

So, as promised here’s the second part of part 2 of the Documentary concerning John Zorn (whoo! that’s a really awkward sentence). Glad y’all are liking this so much. Mr. Zorn is a totally engrossing musical figure and it’s great that someone decided to produce this documentary. If people are even more interested, there’s a video documentary entitled A Bookshelf On Top Of The Sky: 12 Stories About John Zorn that’s available on the Tzadik site. I’ve heard many mixed things about it (apparently the director interjects herself into the documentary in really annoying ways), but it could potentially be very interesting. At any rate, enjoy this part and look for the rest in due time.

And again, here’s archived version (look here) for those with the knowhow and for those annoyed by downloading so many files.

And, after some thought, I decided to repost both sections of part 1 of the documentary. I’m not normally in the habit of doing this as the transitory nature of the mp3blog is kind of the point. But I guess I must be going soft in my old age. So, for section 1 of part 1 (look here) and for section 2 of part 1 (look here).
