Saxophonist Tom Hall is a restless explorer of music internet platforms and recently settled on Bliptv as a viable alternative to the increasing commercialization of You Tube and the limitations of Vimeo.
The result was an outstanding video shoot of the concert marked by the eyes and ears of an actual musician behind the camera, (rather than some provincial film wanna-be), with a bonus supplement of two candid interviews from Bryant and Nix describing their friendship and times shared with Ornette Coleman's Prime Time.
It is just one of a growing number of episodes and Tom would love to hear from others in the Boston area who would like to participate.

I'm always looking for interesting ideas for IL365 interviews and features, so if you know of something happening coming up in town, let me know..."
