Which was the last great Tindersticks album in your opinion .... ?
I stopped listening to them very early, at 'Curtains', and I'm not sure why now at this distance. So my favourite remains the first one.
My interest is piqued again so I think I'll stream some of the later ones. Obviously you rate 'Simple Pleasure' highly as you post it often so I'll start there. Which other later one would you suggest I try?

I loved their first couple of albums then cooled on them. They're playing in London this year, I'm tempted

I think that's a fabulous release, admittedly after only one listen. The drumming on 'Africa' is almost worth the entry cost alone

They'd obviously bought a job lot of old jazz from somewhere. The swing comps and west coast stuff (some quite significant records in the latter category) were stuck into the sale box, but the Dixieland went on the racks.
Rough Trade and Dixieland, not a pairing I'd ever imagined. Good use of fire drill time though, well done!

That explains why nothing cultural happened in the 60s or 70s.
All downhill since the Enlightenment really. Good job we had the Renaissance...

Yes. I haven't been this excited about a Lloyd release in a while.
Me too, I found the Trios a bit underwhelming and the other BNs have been listenable but this definitely has an edge to it
This band really seems to have something, Blade sounds good with Lloyd

It's good stuff! After making With Flute to Boot with Machito, Mann formed his own Afro-Latin band.
Along with African Suite, I'm especially partial to Flute, Brass, Vibes and Percussion.
Yes, I have the latter and really enjoy it. Not too sure why I missed the 'African Suite' album before now, although it's quite easy to get lost in Mann's discography I find.

Whilst over at the Dusty Groove site I bought three of the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra sets on Nimbus.
I haven't been following these releases closely after the first one but decided it was time to carpe diem on what was available now.

Very nice. Sometimes it's the little things that make a big difference, no?
Hearing Philly Joe with those three percussionists is something special.
This has piqued my interest, off to find a stream.
I can see what TTK mean about the alternative covers, although the Argentine pressing has a good one

I didn't realise that was due either. It's a great album. Extra track too, will I have to have that to complement the LP? Hmm...

Weirdly closed mid afternoon on a Saturday.
Good experience in The Wax Factor. Small but well chosen jazz selection.
Weird indeed, I'll make a note of Wax Factor
15-20 years ago there must have been getting on for 10 decent shops in Brighton, the majority in North Laines where most of the 2nd hand could be found. Did you see many others?

Any recommendations for record shopping in Brighton? I'll be there tomorrow.
Haven't been for too long but Mr Bongo comes to mind.

Charles Lloyd - The Sky Will Still Be There tomorrow [Blue Note, 2024]
Lovely. It's not going to convert any non-believers but if you like Charles this is a strong one, more so than the Trio albums I think
What rock music are you listening to? Non-Jazz, Non-Classical.
