Bob Dylan and the Grateful Dead “Come Down to that old Jail Cell” Rehearsals for their tour, 6 cd set, disc 2 As a former band member I like listening to rehearsals. Not sure why. . . .

I've recently added Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp and sometimes if others were not avaible YouTube links which should make it easier to listen to the music, add to playlists while exploring. From the beginning my Blog is almost invisible for Google. I've spent hours and hours trying to fix the problem, now also with help from AI but I still haven't found out. It frustrates me big time my Blog never shows up in Google search results. Thinking of transferring to another medium but that's gonna be a lot of work again.... https://snake-out.blogspot.com/

Nilson Matta “Green Heart” A nice album by this Brazilian bassist that suits this quiet, finally cool morning.

R.I.P. Sheila... 😔

Rest in peace, Sheila. 😔

Same thoughts here! Next on my listening pile:

RIP. A good long life. Thanks the music.

R.I.P. ...

August 12 Pat Metheny - 1954

Which basically means that commercially produced and released music records are out of the game. None of these are "unique" (and even limited pressing runs usually are way more numerous than "limited" runs of authorized/official prints of works of art). Royalties were/are paid (hopefully) on the pressings of NEW records (discs) and secondhand (re)sales are outside any royalty arrangements. For good reason IMO.

👍 - also on my shelf ...

Ah, that's too bad. I had read that she was in hospice care. Was glad to see her at the show Cliff Peterson mentioned. A true original!

RIP

RIP to an artist and survivor!

The Hindemith Quartets are a gas! Especially listened to in order. The basic premises don't change so much, but the fleshing out of them REALLY does. These are not really a "celebrated" body of work, and I kinda get it. There was enough going on at the time (and after) that these can maybe have gotten lost in the shuffle. But enough time has passed, a lot of dust has settled, and here these things still are, none the worse for wear, still looking us dead in the eye and not blinking. Maybe the really "heavy" stop doesn't become fully engaged until #4, but, really, with the possible exception of #1, they all areat the very least, engaging, and eventually engrossing. Check them out, by the JSQ or by anybody. School starts for my granddaughter tomorrow, so that means it's the end of summer, and also the end of Summer With The Juilliard String Quartet. It has been a total blast. Once I got started, this was pretty much all I listened to, and to be honest, I'm not in any big hurry to stop. Onward!

RIP. She lived the life.

Next up: Gust William Tsilis - Sequestered Days (Enja, 1991) Excellent.
