about this concert - from Squat Theatre website:
Fred Frith, Henry Kaiser, Toshinoki Kondo, Bill Laswell, Fred Maher: "Mad World Music" 28-May-80 Although not billed as such, this is basically Material with special guests. Material consisted of Bill Laswell on 6-string Fender bass, Michael Beinhorn on keyboards, and Fred Maher on drums. They had previously been the house band at our sister space, Giorgio Gomelski's Zu Club, and most of us still thought of them as "the Zu Band." Laswell would soon blow up when he produced Herbie Hancock's "Rockit"
