Leader of Nottingham-based harmolodic-influenced band Pinski Zoo, purveyors of strident, anthemic electric jazz. Recordings just miss capturing band's visceral live impact: Rare Breeds '89 and East Rail East '90, both on Jazz Cafe Records; even the live De-Icer '93 on Slam slightly short-changes the band's unique energy. |
