CD From: Gary Morrison <71670.2576@compuserve.com> A friend at work just lent me a CD of music by Django Bates, called "Summer Fruits (and Unrest)" (catalog number - best I can tell - 697 124 052-2). Best I can tell, none of it is especially microtonal, but I suspect that a lot of listers would enjoy it nevertheless. What struck me as especially interesting was how Django straddles the line between the chaos of the proverbial "stocastic" or "blips and bleeps" music, and the planned nature of more traditional forms. I guess it would qualify as jazz, although a fair portion of it is only marginally jazzy.
