All Activity

I have dozens of various Northern Soul anthologies, which are dirt cheap and filled with great 60's music.

The weekend, and Valentine's Day so here is Easy Living, featuring Bob Neloms, from the Flamingo Cafe, March 23, 1986 and Leonard Gaskin's ever-present tape recorder. (Roy Francis is seen on bass but it's Leonard on the tape.)

Love it !

Good stuff! Kenny Clarke really drives the band here.

We did!

Charles Lloyd & the Marvels - I long to see you (Blue Note)

"Way Back Machine" this morning.

Legion of Mary “Absolutely Mary” (bonus disc to “Legion of Mary–The Jerry Garcia Collection Vol.1”) I love this disc.

Virgin Islands: Quelbe & Calypso 1956-1960 This is a great comp for people who find the calypso comedy thing a bit much and want a more intimate version of the genre, here in its Virgin Islands equivalent.

Black Stalin – Roots Rock Soca

Some great Teagarden music. This was originally a Jazz Tone LP, an expansion of a Jazz Tone 10" and then also ten of the twelve tunes appeared on Bethlehem as “Jazz Great” . . . . Some great Mr. T with Jimmy McPartland, Jack’s sister Norma, Edmond Hall, Ray Bauduc et al. Jack Teagarden “Jazz Original” Affinity cd

Mr Fox - The Gypsy Found this one last summer, on a ghastly trip to Margate. The only nice bit was chatting to the young kid in the record store. Despite being about but a child, and not being a jazz guy, he had good stories about meeting Barry Harris, who he claimed lived in Kent towards the end of his life and frequently taught in Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate (is that true?, no sign on Wikipedia).

I'm on the spin of the last disc in my comparison of the new remaster and remix of Yes "Tales of Topographic Oceans" that I am spinning for a report for my best friend of my impressions. I really like both the new remaster, and Steven Wilson's new remix. Two very good presentations of music I love. After this I can move on to the other cds in the box set, and the LPs! This listen is to disc 1 of the set, the first two LP sides, newly remastered.
