2006-01-17 The Persian Surgery Dervishes / Terry Riley

when we played "In C" at Terry Riley's 70th birthday concert at UCLA in last year, finally i met Terry Riley. though he played "Rainbow Curved Air" by Korg synthesizer Triton with his son who played laptop and synthesizer, regretfully the sound what was really new-age atmosphere didn't excite me so much... i really love his organ solo works in 70s, especially i love this dbl LP. the front and back covers are so beautiful. and inside of the gatefold, a photo that Terry Riley plays an organ with a tape machine is so cool!
this is the one of the coolest organ jazz for me, more than as a kind of minimal music. also this is the best album of Terry Riley for me. maybe i've already heard this dbl LP more than 200 times since when i was younger... i love the electric organ sound than synthesizer, because the electric organ sound makes me feel much more cosmic atmosphere and sometime see the image like the birth of lives in the sea... i love this album very much as the coolest organ jazz and a kind of primitive trans music. usually i listen all tracks without haste for 90 minutes running with a pot of tea.
