      So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

      By Pim · Posted

      Ben Webster

      It's probably been mentioned before, but Soulville is a great album.

      The Visitors - Motherland

      By mhatta · Posted

      I didn’t know The Visitors had a third album. I’ve heard "In My Youth" because it was released on CD, and I think "Rebirth" hasn’t been released on CD, but I’ve heard it too, and it’s one of my favorites. I’d really like to give it a listen.  I think they were very talented composers.

      Now reading...

      Lately I have been reading The Complete Robot, a compilation of Isaac Asimov's robot series short stories. His Foundation series is engaging and popular but in many ways I think Asimov's Robot series and his 3 laws of robotics are more significant. I am particularly struck by the way Asimov's musings about autonomous control of society by large artificial intelligences become extremely relevant now in light of the advent of artificial intelligence capabilities way beyond what was possible when Asimov wrote his stories. Asimov wrote about the consequences of allowing an autonomous, artificial intelligence to control vehicles, machines, space ships, cities, governments, etc. and now we are seeing a lot of news about autonomous AI weapons systems, etc. "The Evitable Conflict" (1950) is a particularly good story in this regard. You can read it here: http://cdn.michaelgeist.ca/.../04/The-Evitable-Conflict.pdf

      I recently heard Ben play “Confirmation” in 1964 and was surprised by how good he was. The theme was great, and the solo was in top form. I know there are many who disagree, but personally, I feel that Byas never quite managed to fully embrace the modern style (especially in his rhythmic groove), whereas Webster seemed more flexible with new rhythmic concepts. https://storyvillerecords.bandcamp.com/album/at-ronnie-scott-1964
