John Zorn / George Lewis / Bill Frisell: More News For Lulu
by Glenn Astarita
More News For Lulu was this trio's second album and, despite being recorded in 1989 and originally released on hatOLOGY Records (the father label to HatHut Records) in 1992, its crisp attack and buoyant execution holds up rather immaculately with this overdue reissue.
