Great, that's my listening sorted for a while First track - as I type this, straight out of the blocks. Brothers bringing it home. Love it and sets the rest up beautifully. You just have to pay attention to a tune like this Second track - just what I'd hoped from a felser BFT. If it's not on Impulse it should have been Track 6 - very nice until the sax comes in which dissipates the atmosphere for me a touch. Sounded very European at first, could almost be an ECM album. Someone's been listening to Kenny Wheeler and maybe even Stanko Track 8 - peerless vocal Jazz. I know this very well and will listen to this band and vocalist at any invitation. Righteous Time for dinner and football. Back tomorrow

Lots of truly great music in that list. You have a treat in store!

Thanks, I'll have a dig around her back catalogue on the strength of 'Union'

My first of hers. I like the organ trio backing, is that on others?

London Jazz Festival, sorry I was lazy

Waiting for my LP of that and her more recent to arrive. I saw her gig at LJF and was bowled over Now listening to this, off another LJF performance

48 hours after and all side effects have gone apart from some tiredness. Worth 24 hours discomfort for the protection afforded, definitely

This one perhaps? Very good, written by Bennett and two very good actors in Oldman and Molina https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prick_Up_Your_Ears In the 80s I worked in the public library department where he and Halliwell had defaced the book sleeves. Ironically they'd become the prizes of the collection

Moderna booster yesterday. High fever, muscle and joint pain, generally feeling crap today. NHS website says 48 hours of this, ho hum. That'll teach me to have no reaction to the two AZ doses earlier.

lots of tunes to whistle along to? three of my favourite musicians. I could listen to Reed all day
