Kieran Trippier Reese James Ben Chilwell

A yeast extract spread that is traditionally seen to have either lovers or haters, no fence sitting with Marmite

I was being dim, apologies. RLJ has a knack for interesting covers (Bad Company on her new album!). On this album she is assisted by some interesting names. It doesn't necessarily make it any more Jazz than her other albums. I suspect she's a marmite artist. I'm a big fan.

"Folk styles" on her debut album?! Not on my copy

Sorry, being dim, what is what? Agree about Pat Thomas getting more attention. That solo album is special.

Rickie Lee Jones - Pop Pop [Geffen, 1991] featuring Dino Saluzzi, Charlie Haden, Joe Henderson ao. Always loved this album, paid £8.29 back in 1991 according to the till receipt Preceded by Girl At Her Volcano [Warner Bros., 1983]

a stroll down memory lane inspired by a fantastic 'with strings' broadcast by BBC yesterday. He has written some great (and a fair few less great) songs. Always preferred his soul man musical persona over the guitar rock-god one. He certainly deserves his position in the UK pantheon

Pat Thomas - The Elephant Clock Of Al Jazari [Otoroku, 2017]

Matana Roberts & Pat Thomas - The Truth [OtoRoku, 2020]

The cover photo may have been a clue...

Paul Weller - Live at The Barbican. Songs arranged by Jules Buckley for the BBC Symphony Orchestra. This really hits the spot. Buckley's arrangements suit Weller's songs and voice perfectly.

That's great, been listening to his music today and hoping he'll be well again soon

Trigger pulled

Mine had a fault, replacement on the way Two very different but very good albums there

That's a great way to christen a new flat. Hope you're happy there

Billy Harper - Trying To Make Heaven My Home [MPS Spain, 1980 repress] Thanks for the reminder, copy ordered.

Billy Harper - The Believer [Baystate, 1980]

gradually ticking them off. Wholly driven by the enthusiasm on this board for all things BH

Billy Harper - Knowledge Of Self [Denon, 1979]

I bought a box set from them last year, very well packaged in a box with bubble wrap inside. Made it to the UK in perfect condition

Just 22 now

England, yes. Scotland, no. Southgate was clueless with the substitutions, he has five so use them if you're not winning and don't take off your most creative player, Foden Kane is hamstrung by a system that had no England players getting to the byeline to put in crosses, not once! Scotland have some more than decent players and just need a good striker.

Third that duo, terrific album. I'll be interested to sample the Parker albums

Well played Scotland. England were awful, complete lack of imagination.

Yeah, I was dead chuffed when it popped up on my Discogs wants this morning from a UK seller.
