This cartoon was in a supplement that came with TQ56. It was dedicated to an appreciation of the wonderful Shunyata Improvisation Group and their sublime music. To truly appreciate this band you really have to see them live, because the music evolves and grows as you experience it in the moment. The experience is quite extraordinary.
Characteristically the band begins each improvisation by sitting in silence for a few minutes to somehow calibrate the room's vibrations and to feel the unique ambience of each location.
I was quite pleased with the likenesses of the group members here, but looking back, the hands of the two people flicking cigarette ends in panel 2 are completely wrong. This should have been corrected at quality control, but obviously sneaked through somehow. Blast!
