Previously unreleased recordings by various line-ups drawn from Derek Bailey, Tristan Honsinger, Christine Jeffrey, Toshinori Kondo, Charlie Morrow, David Toop, Maarten Altena, Georgie Born, Lindsay Cooper, Steve Lacy, Radu Malfatti, and Jamie Muir. Journalists often make the brief history of free improvisation conform to the idea that the history of music is a nice straight line from past to present: Beethoven... Brahms... Boulez. Thus Derek Bailey, Evan Parker, and John Stevens - together with Brötzmann and co across the Channel - were the trailblazing "first generation", forging a wholly new language alongside contemporary avant-garde and free jazz. Figures like Toshinori Kondo and David Toop, willing as they were to incorporate snippets of all kinds of music, were the pesky "second generation", happily cocking a snook at the "ideological purity" of Bailey's non-idiomatic improvisation. Company 1981 shows up the foolishness - the wrongness - of such storylines. Check the eclectic collection of guests Bailey invited to Company Weeks over the years. He had clear ideas about the music, but he was no ideological purist. One of the founders of Fluxus, Charlie Morrow, injects blasts of Cageian fun into half the recordings here, whether blurting military fanfares from his trumpet, or intoning far-flung scraps of speech. Cellist Tristan Honsinger and vocalist Christine Jeffrey join in the joyful glossolalia, while Bailey, Toop, and Kondo contribute delicious, delicate, hooligan Arabesques, by turns. The remainder are performed by a different ensemble: Bailey, bassist Maarten Altena, former Henry Cow members Georgie Born and Lindsay Cooper on cello and bassoon, the insanely inventive Jamie Muir on percussion, and trombonist Radu Malfatti, showing his mastery of extended technique. Were that not enough, there's the inimitable purity of Steve Lacy's soprano ringing high and clear above the melee. Glorious! There's always been this idea that free improvisation is somehow difficult listening, but when the doors of perception are thrown open and prejudice cast aside, you realize that it's not difficult at all. "Is it that easy?" chirps Morrow, at one point. Indeed it is. Enjoy yourself.

Honest Company making things right!
Color: 02 - Antique White, Size: California King, Color: 02 - Antique White, Size: California King
Love how this Californai sheet set feels and they fit very nicely on my bed. They are beautiful although I am unhappy with the 2 small holes I found in the fitted sheet after pulling them out of the packaging. I am past the return as I was not able to use them on my bed because I was moving and my bed was in storage. This is very disappointing for such a beautiful sheet set. UPDATE- I have reached out to the company and they were very kind and helpful. I stated the situation along with pictures and the order # and the company quickly responded with a new fitted sheet. Such a delight to find an honest company wanting to do the right thing. I Will order from this company again.

Very thin. You get what you pay for.
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen
You get what you pay for. I first noticed the softness which was great. The quality is very thin. They are cool which is great. I have not washed them yet. I would suggest washing them on cool and gentle by themselves. And because they are so thin I would fluff dry for an hour if you have that setting. The two things that damages clothes and sheets, etc. are if you have an agitator in your washer, those ruin clothes and the heat you choose for the fabric you’re drying I always wash my clothes on cold. I do not have an agitator anymore and on delicate and thin fabrics, I use fluff dry. It is cool, but it will dry, especially if it is thin and I’ve had to dry my fine delicates a little bit longer on fluff that way they don’t shrink because the shrinking comes in from the heat from the dryer so keep that in mind another good thing to remember if you got white sheets like I did is that when you use your detergent add a little bit of borax or laundry booster and they will help get them clean and sparkly white. I am on the fence about whether I would recommend this or not if you’re tight on money and you take good care of them I would recommend that you get them. I’m a linen freak and I buy mostly expensive sheets and I thought I would try this out so that’s where I’m at.

Shower curtain liner clear
Color: Clear, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
The packaged item arrived within a reasonable timeframe, quite promptly in fact, and was free of wrinkles. I am currently unable to assess the long-term durability of this product, as it appears somewhat thin. I will provide an updated review following more extensive use.

Great quality and perfect length
Color: Clear, Size: 72"W x 78"L (Pack of 1)
This shower curtain liner works great and fits perfectly in my bathroom. The material feels durable, water stays inside the shower, and it dries quickly without a strong plastic smell. I also like the clear design because it keeps the bathroom looking clean and bright. The extra length is perfect for taller showers. Definitely a great value for the price.

Great quality liner for a good price
Color: Clear, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
Not all shower liners are equal! I don’t want to spend a fortune on one, but I do want decent quality. This liner is it! Clear so it lets light through, not too heavy or too light weight. The magnets actually work so the liner adheres to the tub and doesn’t get wrapped around you. Very pleased with the purchase.
