The second set of 'All Star Jams' for the week of Different Skies 2007 was
captured in the late evening of Thursday, October 19, 2007. The twenty
musicians of Different Skies were euphoric after an extremely successful
set of rehearsals that day, and a powerful set of jams the previous night.
More to the point, as is often seen in the latter half of the week at
Different Skies, the musicians had begun to listen more and play less, to
fine-tune their collaborative skills, and to think and move and play as
one unit.
As a result, the Thursday night jam was shorter but far more productive than
the previous night. The musicians played for about 45 minutes for a small audience of Arcosanti residents and
for an Internet audience around the world on StillStream.com and on
Second Life (thanks to Bibi Book for the SL rebroadcast); in doing so, they created
a collage of five distinct movements which are presented here almost in
their entirety.
The quality of these performances is entirely due to the fine musicians who see fit to
drag their gear into the Arizona high desert for seven days of grueling
tech work, hard rehearsals, and nerve-wracking performances ... all melded inseparably with a level of camaraderie and
friendship that cannot be described to anyone who has not come and taken
part.
This release - along with its companion release for Wednesday
night's jam - offers a brief and piquant taste of the atmosphere of our
evening jams, a momentary immersion into the musical wonderland that is
Different Skies. We all hope you enjoy it.
