You may not know Bill Laswell, but you've almost certainly heard his touch, from Material and No-Wave, to George Clinton and Bootsy, to Herbie Hancock and a zillion more.
Bill needs your help right now. Think about giving a hand.

I'm enjoying the Bill Laswell discography listen. Reading the write up on him on Spotify and now i want to do a discography listen of Adrien Sherwood.

I'm surprised to have seen no Western mass-media obits for the sublime Gambian griot Foday Musa Suso, who took flight on May 25 at age 75. Were it not for an email blast from Bill Laswell, I don't think I'd know he was gone. Here's a Gambian source. standard.gm/a-tribute-to...

#NowPlaying Bill Laswell "Dreams of Freedom: Ambient Translations of Bob Marley in Dub"
Title's a bit pretentious, but this is a favourite album of mine. Some are snotty that there's not enough of Marley's vocals on it, but they presumably don't understand what dub is.
