John Zorn - Filmworks XVII (Original Soundtrack)

Featuring two members of the exciting trio Rashanim with drum master Kenny Wollesen and Zorn himself on sax, this is a poignant and varied score for a new documentary about elusive film maverick Marie Menken who was a close friend of Andy Warhol and Kenneth album and an important member of the first generation of American Experimental Filmmakers. Also included are five unique pieces of polyphony for percussion and African thumb pianos, painting a picture of legendary West Coast skull collector Ray Bandar.
