Product Information
Steve Lacy: Conversations is a collection of thirty-four interviews with the innovative saxophonist and jazz composer. Lacy (1934-2004), a pioneer in making the soprano saxophone a contemporary jazz instrument, was a prolific performer and composer, with hundreds of recordings to his name. This volume brings together interviews that appeared in a variety of magazines between 1959 and 2004. Conducted by writers, critics, musicians, visual artists, a philosopher, and an architect, the interviews indicate the evolution of Lacy's extraordinary career and thought. Lacy began playing the soprano saxophone at sixteen, and was soon performing with Dixieland musicians much older than he. By nineteen he was playing with the pianist Cecil Taylor, who ignited his interest in the avant-garde. He eventually became the foremost proponent of Thelonious Monk's music. Lacy played with a broad range of musicians, including Monk and Gil Evans, and led his own bands. A voracious reader and the recipient of a MacArthur "genius" grant, Lacy was particularly known for setting to music literary texts--such as the Tao Te Ching , and the work of poets including Samuel Beckett, Robert Creeley, and Taslima Nasrin--as well as for collaborating with painters and dancers in multimedia projects. Lacy lived in Paris from 1970 until 2002, and his music and ideas reflect a decades-long cross-pollination of cultures. Half of the interviews in this collection originally appeared in French sources and were translated specifically for this book. Jason Weiss provides a general introduction, as well as short introductions to each of the interviews and to the selection of Lacy's own brief writings that appears at the end of the book. The volume also includes three song scores, a selected discography of Lacy's recordings, and many photos from the personal collection of his wife and longtime collaborator, Irene Aebi. Interviews by: Derek Bailey, Franck Bergerot, Yves Bouliane, Etienne Brunet, Philippe Carles, Brian Case, Garth W. Caylor Jr., John Corbett, Christoph Cox, Alex Dutilh, Lee Friedlander, Maria Friedlander, Isabelle Galloni d'Istria, Christian Gauffre, Raymond Gervais, Paul Gros-Claude, Alain-Ren Hardy, Ed Hazell, Alain Kirili, Mel Martin, Franck M dioni, Xavier Pr vost, Philippe Quinsac, Ben Ratliff, G rard Rouy, Kirk Silsbee, Roberto Terlizzi, Jason Weiss

Reviews
"A phenomenal interviewee. . . . Whether [Steve Lacy] was making bold predictions on the future directions of the music, describing his fascinating projects, laying forth broad challenges to himself and other artists, or making succinct observations of the musical world he inhabited, Lacy's words proved to be almost as interesting as his music." Down Beat, on inducting Lacy into the Down Beat Hall of Fame, "A phenomenal interviewee. . . . Whether [Steve Lacy] was making bold predictions on the future directions of the music, describing his fascinating projects, laying forth broad challenges to himself and other artists, or making succinct observations of the musical world he inhabited, Lacy's words proved to be almost as interesting as his music." Down Beat, on inducting Lacy into the Down Beat Hall of Fame "I have always admired Steve's perseverance and commitment to perfecting his art . . . He is the prime example of someone who has fought for artistic integrity."--Sonny Rollins, Jazz Magazine (Paris) "[An] excellent collection . . . This well-illustrated and attractively produced book collects interviews with Lacy and presents them chronologically. . . This book is a fitting tribute to one of the supreme masters of that moment."--The Wire, OCtober 2006, "This is an exemplary project, carefully planned, lovingly assembled and handsomely produced. Conversations is a fitting tribute to a giant of modern jazz." --Stuart Kremsky, "International Association of Jazz Record Collectors Journal", "Steve Lacy's soul-rending sounds emerge out of the chaos of our times like the announcement of the beautiful nonviolent anarchist revolution. In the passionate intelligence of his compositions, every note is the sound of freedom."--Judith Malina, actress, writer, and co-founder of the Living Theatre, ""Steve Lacy: Conversations "is a notable work that deepens our understanding of a jazz legend whose reputation in the United States derived from fragmentary bulletins published infrequently in American jazz magazines. Aside from being a must-read for people who follow Lacy's music, "Steve Lacy: Conversations "will also help illuminate Lacy's place in the jazz canon." --Vernon Frazer, "American Book Review", "This well-illustrated and attractively produced book collects interviews with Lacy and presents them chronologically. . . . [A] fitting tribute to one of the supreme masters of [the pure improvised] movement." --Andy Hamilton, "The Wire", "Editor Jason Weiss has changed the academic landscape of jazz with "Steve Lacy: Conversations," the book I always wanted but never had. Weiss's text includes a huge amount of interviews never published in English, in addition to the usual suspects (Corbett, Ratliff, Derek Bailey, and the Wire). Conversations also contains rare photographs, scores, liner notes and free-association jottings to flesh out the complete package." --Clifford Allen, "All About Jazz", “A phenomenal interviewee. . . . Whether [Steve Lacy] was making bold predictions on future directions of the music, describing his fascinating projects, laying forth broad challenges to himself and other artists, or making succinct observations of the musical world he inhabited, Lacy’s words proved to be almost as interesting as his music.�- Down Beat , on inducting Lacy into the Down Beat Hall of Fame, "Steve Lacy's soul-rending sounds emerge out of the chaos of our times like the announcement of the beautiful nonviolent anarchist revolution.

It is a knock-out, an omelette aux fines herbes, an impeccable Lacy line of weird angles and implied major seconds. A bag full of Dixie, borscht-belt air, Cecil Taylor, Thelonious Monk, Gil Evans, Musica Elettronica Viva, the road, Rome, Paris, New York, Asia, Boston, backstage philosophy, painters, poets and corduroy. A life of roaming music lessons on stage and in the streets, in museums and at home -- compositions all, that most professors have long excluded from their curriculae. No sour grapes nor sentimental journey in this book, just the pure straight dope." --Alvin Curran," The New York Times Online", "A phenomenal interviewee. . . . Whether [Steve Lacy] was making bold predictions on future directions of the music, describing his fascinating projects, laying forth broad challenges to himself and other artists, or making succinct observations of the musical world he inhabited, Lacy's words proved to be almost as interesting as his music."- Down Beat , on inducting Lacy into the Down Beat Hall of Fame
