Just got the latest Wire in the post today. Theo Parrish is, as you can see, the cover man. Odd in a way, given the review his new record, Sketches, was given last month. In it, Peter Shapiro says: "Inevitably, Sketches is comprised of just that - sketches, Parrish doodling in the margins of his notebook during Professor Carl Craig's jazz history lectures. These are unfinished songs that were lying around Parrish's hard drive and touched up to justify the sticker price."
Ouch. Luckily Derek Walmsley was the one assigned for the interview. Surprisingly, he makes no mention of the album's lack of merit.
