Frank Zappa and The Mothers Of Invention, December 1971, Musikhalle Hamburg CC 2.0 Heinrich Klaffs.

In this episode of New Horizons William Dart explores the idea of 'clever' and brings up three artists as examples: Frank Zappa, Punch Brothers and Andrew Bird.

Punch Brothers have a new release, The Phosphorescent Blues.

Andrew Bird has recently released some tracks of him playing his violin in Coyote Gulch in Utah, under the title Echolocations: Canyon. There's a nice video about the project on that web page.
