An integral fixture
on New York's downtown "no wave" scene in
the late 70s and early 80s, Laswell has since
spawned a cult following among punks, ravers,
avant garde jazz fans and funk and hip-hop
heads for his legendary stage shows as a member
of progressive groups like Material, Third
Rail (with James Blood Ulmer and Bernie Worrell),
Painkiller (with John Zorn and Mick Harris),
Praxis (with Buckethead, Brain and DJ Disk)
and for impromptu live collaborations with

and many more. |
