Wally Shoup, Chris Corsano, Paul Flaherty: 'Bounced Check' (Records) Play alto sax, drums and tenor & alto sax respectively on the first of two live recordings made a couple of years ago in Seattle. The office talk is dismissive waffle about how grating the saxophone can be. Free music lovers and musicians who know about 'edges' may beg to differ in opinion. Roaring, raging, flaming music.. the other lp is titled: 'Blank Check', go figure

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Wally Shoup, Chris Corsano, and Paul Flaherty make up this Screamin' free punk-jazz-liquid-solid-noize trio captured LIVE "in your face"-style in Seattle, WA.  Totally improvised double sax and drum explopsions that break down into duos and solos and re-ignite as trio howlin' paint splattered maddness gone butt-naked wilder. Recorded at an art gallery with Artwork melting off the walls and frightened fans nervously mopping their furrowed blood-stained brows ( they were especially afraid one or both of the sax players would expire...... it did feel like attempted sax suicide), this limited LP, which will be the final volume in the RECORDS label plan, represents one half of the concert that emerged on that unsuspecting evening. The other half is being released at the same time (relatively) on the Tyfus label in Finland as BLANK CHECK.  Thus creating another  pair of sister releases much like the LAST EYES (RECORDS #8) & STEEL SLEET (TYFUS) LP pair released in 2005. The 'CHECK' pair will serve as the document of the only event this trio has played to date, and it presents another blistering historical document of an underground movement that continues to go un-recognized and even un-noticed in most of the so-called civilized baby starvin'  world. Free music . . . . . hard to believe it can still piss people off just by rearing it's ugly head..........but someone's gotta stand up and throw the metaphysical psycho love bombs....thankfully we still have volunteers like these notorious three to kick around the turntable. Sure to sell out within 10 years or my name isn't Bon Jovi.
