Same here, I LOVE it, and .....no influence at all, but a coincidence.....that dramatic effect of the voice, spoken and sung on the title track ....such a thing will be on our upcoming album. And yeah. Though this music might have been recorded almost 60 years ago, people still tend to not understand it. But it´s such a natural thing.....it only needs listening.....it´s beautiful !!!! You really got it, both McLean and Pharoah, exactly hand in gloves with my musical tastes.....😀 Yeah, it´s astonishing....so many people scream over the collaborations with Gil Evans, and here we are some people with big ears, but obviously not prepared for that kind of music...... I love the melody of Concierto de Aranjuez, but not in that setting....Miles is more than okay.....but it would have been great with a small group with guitar. I love "Aranjuez" as a melody really much and even quote from it in my composition "Miss RA´s Choice" since the girl I dedicated it to, was born in Spain, so it´s just a musical "nod" towards the place of her arrival (....hey she claims to be Sun Ra´s spiritual daughter and that´s why she doesn not say "birth country"...but "place of arrival (on earth) 😍)

I will be traveling from Texas to attend the [Ahmed] Residency next month🤗 Would be cool to meet you Steve! 🥁SÄJ was/is one of my heroes❤️

Amazing ... I wasn't even aware that the ubiquitous BILLY bookcases by IKEA had such a CD insert spinoff too. The way my record collection has expanded in more recent years and is now occupying two Billy bookcases in an adjacent room as well (in addition to a wall of sturdier and modular shelves in my original music room) I'd be able to make good use of some of these inserts. But as they have been discontinued 10+ years ago as you say ...

I found the My Kind of Music LP in a cut out bin many years ago--after listening, musically it proved to be one of my favorite such finds ever.

Yes! Also Steve Potts (b. 1943) and Kevin Norton (b. 1956).

Now I was thinking of another cup of coffee, so I put on Bob Dylan’s “Desire” Mobile Fidelity Lab SACD.

CDs. The Billy bookcase holds 6 CD inserts. Each insert was $30 CAD but was discontinued 10+ years ago. Each insert holds 136 standard jewel case CDs and a fully loaded bookcase with 6 inserts holds 816. It was a great product and looks like custom shelving.

👍- I also have this CD, signed by Buster Williams!

16 degrees this morning. That’s a better start than yesterday. Still cold–was out re-arranging cars so that the water softener tech can fit his truck in the driveway, he’s due soon.
