Pipeline, Giancarlo Nino Locatelli, Tom Raworth

Tip! *100 copies limited edition* "A Decent Run is the result of a journey that began in 2000 and was recorded in 2024, seven years after the death of Tom Raworth, whose poems I used as the basis for ten tracks—ten songs—to which I added two pieces by Steve Lacy. It is a journey through many different kinds of music, lyrics, images, and sounds, yet one shaped by a single principle: the idea of music and improvisation as a collective, choral process, in which space and prominence are given to individual voices, instruments, guests, and words. The choral dimension that characterised Ahead of July (We Insist! 035), a fully improvised concert, reappears here in our engagement with written material, in close dialogue with the spoken and sung voice." - Giancarlo Nino Locatelli
