king ubu Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Yep, but if it's half as good as I hope, it does easily deserve its own thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John L Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Looks promising! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnhrtg Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Already out here in France (and perhaps elsewhere in Europe too. I have not heard it yet, but mentioning this in case some might want to order & receive it well in advance of the stated US release date).

king ubu Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 It's good! Got to spin it again very soon, but the first couple of spins were most enjoyable! There's a remark I caught in the notes (which I've not yet read in full) about the "low end theory" that Weston and Harper share - makes lots of sense to me ... there's a constant low rumble to this, even when it's quiet on the surface, there's much force and power hidden beneath, kept in reserve, it seems. I like that! And as one not too well-versed in Harper's discography, it's great to have some recent stuff of his, his tone is gorgeous here! Somehow this album reminds me of old singers and how they (take Sheila Jordan for a prime example) can do almost whatever they want, how they can losen up and pull stuff that would just sould weird or even wrong with a younger voice ...

gnhrtg Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Already out here in France Are you now living in France? Your location still says Singapore. Just curious Thank you for asking. No, still living in Singapore but in Paris for a month-long stay, mostly holiday. We only have another week to go now, though. We scheduled the dates for convenience but have been very lucky regarding exhibitions and also some decent concerts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
