The
following are MP3 Audio File excerpts from the 1999 HIGH ZERO Festival.
Many, many thanks to Doug Wolf for graciously making these pristine
digital recordings, to Andy Hayleck for post-production assistance,
and to all the fantastic musicians who participated in the festival.
We
have included an except from every set, but this small collection
does not even begin to touch the breadth of the music as actually
performed.
