Peter Evans at Jazz em Agosto

American trumpeter Peter Evans will return to Jazz em Agosto to play with together with Evan Parker's Electro-Acoustic Ensemble. Peter Evans played a memorable solo on the last year edition of the festival, followed by a great show with his own quartet: Peter Evans (trumpet, piccolo trumpet), Ricardo Gallo (piano), Tom Blancarte (double bass), Kevin Shea (drums). Live in Lisbon was released by Clean Feed on the Jazz em Agosto Series, a collection of live recordings made during Gulbenkian’s festival.

Last May, Peter Evans was at Culturgest and at Jazz ao Centro Festival with Moppa Elliott’s Mostly Other People Do the Killing. In Coimbra, this prodigious player did also a solo concert.

Hold your breath and listen to this amazing solo improvisation, recorded at William Paterson University. December 1, 2009.

Iain McKell, "New Gypsies"

"Historically despised the new Gypsies are there by choice, not heritage. Unrelated to the Roma, the movement began in 1986 when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters headed out of London into the English countryside. McKell followed these New Age Travellers to the West Country and over the years he watched them become a hybrid tribe - the new gypsies - present-day rural anarchists, living the subversive lifestyle in elaborately decorated horse-drawn caravans."

New Order - Video 5-8-6 [Extended 22:23 version]

“Video 5 8 6” is a song originally composed as “pap” (as Tony Wilson put it) for the opening night of the Haçienda on May 21, 1982. Parts of this pearl would become the basis for the Power, Corruption & Lies tracks “5 8 6” and “Ultraviolence”, as well as the associated 12-inch single “Blue Monday”.
