In 1986, I witnessed the spectacle of Urban Sax LIVE at Midnight during the World EXPO in Vancouver, BC. It began with barges floating across the river amidst a shroud of fog while colored flood lights panned the water. The group was accompanied by a Native American drum circle and climbers rappelling overhead amidst the domed metal webbing constructed over top the open pavilion, as well as up and down the building walls. Urban Sax, attired in silver mesh and plastic tubing serenaded the packed outdoor arena for over an hour. Earlier in the day I interviewed Gilbert Artman, aided by his kind manager Gilles Yepremian serving as translator. We had a nice 25-minute conversation with Gilbert talking about his musical history and Urban Sax philosophy. The quality is quite good, so it makes for a very interesting listen with most of the information not dated at all. Again adjust your volume as needed & Enjoy!
