According to this page, the Cleveland Pops Orchestra will perform Scheherajazz in April of this year. I was searching the web for it to see what people are saying about this truly amazing album (I own two copies) which pairs a studio symphony orchestra with a 1960-vintage steroidal brassy jazz combo for a truly memorable listening experience in which the listener is switched back and forth between them with no warning or logic whatever!

I was contacted by someone from an orchestra in Massachusetts that said they were considering a performance. After I sent a recording to them, I never heard back again. Now Cleveland is going to give it a go? Wow! I'd love to be there for that. Imagine hearing it Live! Want a sample? Here's a RealAudio clip of the last movement, thanks to those enlightened souls at WFMU. (Hmmm, says here they did it in Portland, OR, back in August.)

In other news, today at 11 am (Eastern), the History Channel will present "How William Shatner Changed The World," hosted by William Shatner. I think we'll be watching that.
