Baldi/Gerycz Duo After Commodore Perry Service Plaza

We tend to do the free jazz sessions right at the end of long tours, Baldi says, or after making other records, so it's a nice break from the more regimented song forms that the other bands have, or from playing the same songs every night on tour. For Baldi & Gerycz, free jazz is a release - something to break apart stretches of familiar songwriting - and because of that, theres a lot of joy in these recordings - see the raucous album closer The Holy Retrievers (In Transit). Admittedly After Commodore Perry Service Plaza is a bittersweet collection, though - compiled from the final session Baldi & Gerycz recorded in person. As such, its a cherished memory - its also kindling for creation - those original feelings inspire the duo to find novel ways to collaborate, even perform.
