Notes

Taken from a radio broadcast.

The "Well-Tuned Piano" on here is the original base work for the 6 hour piece, and quite different; "Chimes" is an excerpt from the 1987 released version for comparison purposes, and the Terry Riley pieces, while derivitive and non-committal perhaps, are interesting in comparison to the La Monte roots from which they sprang.

This is a near complete version of this ongoing work as recorded live in 1987. Although a superficial listening of any portion may lead to the assumption of an uneventful piece, hearing the work as a whole reveals anything but. Many consider it the most seminal work by a 20th century composer. Especially climactic are the sound achieved in the 3rd and 4th hour when the harmonics blend to create incredible sonic overtones.

Notes

Taken from a radio broadcast.

"Young Dorian Blues" is La Monte's most recent work. With the slap drumming, the dissonant piano that becomes an increasingly dominant force, the guitar riffs that start off sweet and soon get nasty—this track is not only very VU, but seems to be a purposeful nod in their direction.
