Jon Anderson forming new band with Jean-Luc Ponty

The Owner of a Lonely Heart singer announced the new band news during a recent solo show, revealing the odd couple is planning to start work on new material this summer (14).
Anderson told fans, "I'm going to work with one of the great violin players. We start work in June, I think. Then we're going to tour next year. I love the violin."
Ponty is best known for his collaborations with rock legend Frank Zappa and he also contributed to Elton John's Honky Chateau album. But he is first and foremost a jazz great, who has worked solo and with Stephane Grappelli and the Mahavishnu Orchestra.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
