The BBC talks to James Marriott about the post-literate age or the death of reading... https://www.bbc.com/audio/play/w3ct71cy

I will consult my Stabilität dictionary when back home.

Another gem from Resonance Records...

Looks great. I also see an appealing-looking 1977 Tony Coe performance. Being out of space by a mile, I may go digital for these, but will listen one way or another.

yes, the whole operation is in different hands now. Maybe that was a poor choice of words, but you get my drift.

Long since. Completely different operation for all intents & purposes.

Yes, I was going to ask - is the Cadence Building (if there really is such a building) now a pedophile-free zone?

I've got quite a number of Cadence LPs and CDs (as well as CIMP discs). Pretty interesting and important label and distribution pathway (Cadence/North Country Distribution = Cadnor), not to mention the magazine. Too bad the founder turned out to be such a sicko. Live in Europe is great, and Melvin Smith, the guitarist, is cool. He has a solo guitar LP that is pretty neat (albeit perhaps for completists only). https://www.discogs.com/release/4853227-Abdul-Malik-Muhammad-Songs-For-Our-Children?srsltid=AfmBOopaEVHsk64bQx5ZKoi1zhnfWjHCmOodca_Y1C7LBLEcF227BG6h

Forgot about YouTube - duh. I like the instrumental tracks. The vocal tracks are weird. The first sounds like a nod to Dylan, but the second is more a nod to Jim Pepper. The whole YouTube thing makes me wonder - do I still need to collect CDs? I have definitely been winding down as I approach retirement. Doing a lot more downloads. So I will skip this one but still looking at Live in Europe. Anything else on the Cadnor site worth picking up? You know my tastes

Bandcamp Friday coming up. I'll pre-order this then and a few other things off my wishlist.

👍

Such a perfect record.

Amazing news.

Yes it looks similar but the Contemporary label also changed a bit during the times. As far as I know Pell didnt record for Contemporary under his name.

Revisiting disc 3 of this excellent new reissue of two Bill Evans albums and many alternates/outtakes. Bill Evans “Haunted Heart” Riverside/Craft 3 cd set, disc 3

Remember I was catching up on work email after a long break (plus a gusher of requests from those emerging from their extended coma). Distraction always help lighten the burden. Like when I am dealing with work but have my tunes on in the background. I might have figured out "Little Sunflower" eventually ... I associate with Cedar because I think he played it quite a bit. A tad ashamed not to recognize or have any inkling of Houston Person on there.

A little snow last night. Looks like it may be one of THOSE winters. I’ll layer up and put the shovel to use later. Starting a session with Wes Montgomery “The Complete Full House Recordings” Riverside/Craft 2 cd set, disc 2 I’ve always loved these recordings, and this was a welcome re-issue offering alternate material in great sound. 300×263 11.8 KB
