The singing/ scatting/ rapping style is called conical, though I never seem to be able to find the correct spelling. Anyone?
I'm tempted to say Steve T's proposed spelling is a bit "comical", but that would be cheeky :)
It's most often written "konnakol" but as it's a Tamil word by origin there is no "official" version, and you'll see it as konokol and other variants as well.
However it's written, the konnakol was one of the highlights. I also enjoyed Singh's trademark bird calls towards the end, followed by some "bear growling" (?). Never heard those at a jazz gig before!
I'd liked to have heard a bit more from Yazz overall, but as Steve H says, this was an exciting session, with a welcome whiff of the unpredictable and risky. There was some great playing and it mostly worked for me.
