I saw him play with Yagi Michiyo in a basement at some university in or near Tokyo. I was actually mostly there to see Yagi, and I had no idea what PB sounded like. The stuff they recorded together is also great but it doesn't compare to the sheer power of that show (as I remember it).
Beautiful summary of career that's bigger than life. He could confound the listener, myself included, but when he connected ... WOW. You take the risk, go for the ride, and hope you survive. Avant garde to the end.
