DESCRIPTION:TALKING TAIKO: A&nbsp\;celebration of&nbsp\;Yuri Kageyama's "Th
 e New and Selected Yuri: Writing From Peeling Till Now" (Ishmael Reed Publ
 ishing Co.\, 2011)Poetry&nbsp\;with Music by Eric Kamau Gravatt (jazz drum
 mer for McCoy Tyner\, Weather Report\, Wayne Shorter)\, Isaku Kageyama (ta
 iko drummer for Amanojaku\, Hybrid Soul\, Toshinori Kondo)\, Makoto Horiuc
 hi (musical director\, guitar)\,&nbsp\;Hiroyuki Shido (bass) and Greg Pear
 son (keyboards).&nbsp\;Special guests Ishmael Reed\, Tennessee Reed and Ca
 rla Blank. &ldquo\;They&rsquo\;ve called Yuri &lsquo\;cute&rsquo\; often d
 uring her life. She&rsquo\;s cute all right. Like a tornado is cute. Like 
 a hurricane is cute. This Yuricane\,&rdquo\; Reed says. &ldquo\;Her poems 
 critique Japanese as well as American society. The Chikan. The arrogance o
 f the Gaijin\, who\, even when guests in a country\, insist that everybody
  be like them. Some are erotic. You might find allusions to Richard Wright
 \, Michelangelo\, John Coltrane. Music is not only entertainment but like 
 something that one injects\, something that invades the nervous system.&rd
