    Harvey This link will take you to Harvey's Original Juke Box. Harvey Smith is a Boston-based singer/songwriter who is one of the first performers to give the creator of this site an opportunity to back him up on guitar as part of a duo unknown as The Obvious Alternative.

    Segue

    The Gas Tank Orchestra


    The Gas Tank Orchestra is a local New Orleans phenomenon. Building woodwind, string, and percussion instruments from automobile gas tanks this ensemble creates a truly peculiar and haunting sound. The site serves as an introduction to the band, where some of their music may be sampled and gigging information obtained. Approach with a broad ear.

    Tzadik Records


    TzadikTzadik Records is a label founded by jazz luminary John Zorn. The Tzadik label produces twentieth century music and other unearthly variaties of very strange music, and their web site is a cool information source and e-store. Be sure to check out their Radical Jewish Culture section...

    Oblique Strategies


    eno.jpg This is not Brian Eno's web page, but rather the web site of programmer David Ray who has created a fun little page featuring Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt's 'Oblique Strategies' cards. The cards are meant to act like little fortune telling devices that give you random advice when you're in a jam.

    The Art Guys

    shake.gif The Art Guys are two artists from Houston, Texas. They show their art throughout the country and share their very unique brand of conceptual art making and thought/action stimulation. I had the good fortune to hear them speak at Tulane University where they diplayed their talent for comedy and absurdist surrealism while showing off their Suits.
