  1. My sincere condolences, Kevin.
  2. German jazz drummer Ralf Hübner was a painter. Guitarist Volker Kriegel, also cartoons and children's books, IIRC. What about Daniel Humair and Hans Koller?
  3. I found the documentary on th two DVDs in this box set to be very enlightening. https://www.discogs.com/release/14700313-Nat-King-Cole-His-Musical-Autobiography/image/SW1hZ2U6NDUwNTI2NTM=
  4. These are the reasons why I will probably rather not buy this set. I still have so much unplayed discs lying around here and filling the shelves. Plus, I'm afraid it won't fascinate me musically as much as I would hope for. I missed Mingus playing in a local club around the time he record the "Moves" album, we were caught in a traffic jam and arived late when it was already sold out. What sounded up from the basement to the ticket counter was George Adams wailing who never thrilled me so much.
  5. That's the only album of her I have, bought after being mentioned here. Her renditions of old standards sound more sincere and authentic to me than Björk's.
  6. R.I.P. I hope hios collection is preserved. The many reissues I have from this music are so important!
  7. The weekend bottle: "RAMARRO" CATARRATTO 2021
  8. In his liner notes he said he "wanted to make jest of the whole thing" - the black/white thing. He posed as a boxer on the cover.
  9. No other baroque composer wrote as beautiful stuff for oboes and bassoons as Fasch!
  10. This evening, just because it is so tasty, this Alsacian Crémant: JEAN GEILER Crémant brut Bio
  11. Note about the lo-fi on the albums (found on discogs):
  12. Yeah - I mean, those many albums with bass players and Scott obviously holding back on request by her producers do not prepare for the sheer power and swinging force she projects on these live recordings.
