And even if you do get dementia, it'll swing.

Thanks for the heads up. My very first jazz concert (in 1971) was Freddie Hubbard w/Junior Cook, George Cables, Mike Moore, Lenny White.

GREAT to know! Although I hate to admit that I'm that OLD! I don't feel it. 😎

Show biz churns up a lot of strange stuff!

KISS - really??? Not my thing.

THIS is what Jackie Wilson said ..

The intro to “Teeter Totter” is some of my favorite Andrew Hill record. Setting aside Point of Departure, this is IMHO the best Joe/Kenny album

My Bloody Valentine's 2013 comeback album of a sort, dropping quite mysteriously and suddenly iirc--I didn't get around to hearing it for a few months after its release, despite retaining my love for their late 1980s-early 90s shoegaze glory years. I know kids here on the music scene in Bloomington and beyond who absolutely revere this band... I'm old enough now to note with interest the music from my own youth that finds any traction with teens and 20somethings, and they've got big ears. Certainly having the kind of vast, unparalleled access to past music that pre-digital kids didn't have is partly to account (for better or worse--I think it's for the better, generally speaking), but I'm always curious about why certain indie bands in particular resonate with Gen Z. They're certainly big on My Bloody Valentine. That's great news! I still have the reissue of Cypress with the Afoot EP appended that came out a few years ago, and I still love that album. It might be the peak of 1980s college jangle-rock.

So do I.

Simply adore this album!

By the 80s, I think Blakey couldn't hide his decline as a drummer, but the repertoire had grown to include more modern tunes that I found enjoyable. On this album, for example, tracks like “Little Man” or “Fuller Love” (aka “In Case You Missed It”).

I used to have quite a few Roney CDs, but eventually let go of all them save one. The one I kept I really like. It's:

This is a very enjoyable CD. It's been ages since I've played it. Williams left us far too soon at 53. Cancer sucks.

I saw him live around that time, with his brother Antoine in the band. It was great, only that he overused the microphone, which he wouldn't really have needed in a club of that size.
