John Zorn / Tim Berne - Frankfurt 1988

Here's a set by John Zorn and Tim Berne, doing some Ornette tunes with the twin drums of Joey Baron and Michael Vatcher, and Mark Dresser on bass. This is the "Spy vs. Spy" band a few months before recording that album. Not sure why it was dubbed "W.R.U." at the concert, of if I mixed anything up... anyway, the music is great!
