All Activity

Saw Twelve Monkeys in the theatre last night. Still packs a punch. I forgot that it was directed by Gilliam. Am hoping to see the latest Knives Out outing, Wake Up Dead Man before it goes exclusive to Netflix. I might make it out on Sat.

yeah I have heard them. That was a good group. On Steeple Chase I think I have one with a very long version of "Parker´s Mood"....some of the best slow Blues I ever heard. And one that I love is "Ghetto Lullaby". I would not say I have MANY of his records since collecting just is not my thing, I try to get some tastes and see what I can stock in my mind and maybe get some first hand studies.

Well in my religion (politheism) there is no Chrismas, but I like to make people happy and have love and respect for all who believe in something. Tomorrow there is a big familiy meeting at my elder sister´s house with a lotta relatives, brothers and sisters in law and who knows more..... and some kids from my nieces too. I think it´s a how they say..... advent meeting...... Usually the "crazy little brother of his elder sister" is asked to play something on the piano, they had the piano tuned for me they said. So I know it´s time before Chrismas for Christian People, I think I should play some of that stuff. Thought about "Chrismas Song" in Eb. This more in ballad time. Might also give them a taste of "White Chrismas" in medium tempo, in Db that´s a nice key, and play some choruses on it.

Oh I have never heard this. Coltrane sounds great on it !

Thanks! Jan Swerts is a Belgian neoclassical musician with some pop influences. Beautiful music imo but definitely something different than most jazz music.

I've just learned of some family medical issues that will make it impossible for me to do February. Sorry to leave everyone in the lurch. I hope someone else is able to pick it up.

Hipnosis is 38 mins, and High Frequency is 39 mins, so they would fit fine on one CD. That would free up both my McLean Mosaic and my Moncur Select, helping my shelf space and wallet immensely! Probably the same for others here also.

Hipnosis was released on the Grachan Moncur Mosaic Select.

🤘 Speaking of Miles, now: 👍 Never heard of Jan Swerts, but you really do have a pretty sweet listening area set up there. I like the LP displays. Nice!

IMO, one of the hippist Christmas tracks:

Good news, price has come down to $199.98 since 2020. 😎

Only one I have, but it's been a long while since I've listened to it, and now buried in a box I currently don't have access to.

Lester Young & Teddy Wilson - Pres & Teddy (Verve)

Yep, indeed a double LP set, and yes, fantastic music!

👍

I have not heard it, but have been aware of it. Same with Antiquity. With all of the fine remarks, I will check both of these titles out. That would rule if BN released Hipnosis and High Frequency; maybe as a 2cd set (I don't know the recording lengths of either, maybe a single cd? Those 60's Steeplchase live cd's have been on my radar for awhile....

Had I already said how much I love Voyage to Jericho and how happy I am with the reissue ? I see it’s up for pre order in Europe as well

Feeling nostalgic about my friend Mars.

Hadn't listened to any Nimbus West recordings in a long while...enjoying these:

There's the good record right there, that one there is.
