Joe Zawinul - The Rise And Fall Of The Third Stream [Vortex] A recent purchase that keeps finding its way to the turntable. This will become a real favourite.

We had a two minute silence at 11.00 today. Obviously all VE day celebrations have been seriously curtailed. My 94yo neighbour tells of how as an 18yo she downed tools at the factory she worked in and walked the 8 miles into Trafalgar Square to join the celebrations. It must have been such a day of relief. However it also makes me think of my great uncle who remained a Japanese POW after May 8th and for some time still to come. For his and other families in the same position it must have been a bittersweet day

Damn. Genius.

Works for me

If not and you want to do a Tubby, just let me know

Nicely recorded. From Russell's own tapes of three different live radio broadcasts. Two different bass and piano players across the sessions. Music swings the roof off. Any Russell fan is going to like it

I rather suspect that many people with disabilities and chronic health conditions feel that class exists already, as will those that have experienced age discrimination. As with many things, this pandemic is shedding light on these existing disparities and exacerbating them.

Fuddle whilst Rome burns. But what's it matter to stay everyone's best mate.

What's so wrong with being a vegetarian or a vegan anyway? Plenty of people manage, very happily and healthily. If meat is unsafe or unavailable people will survive and may even begin to question the farming and production methods that make meat, especially the processed kind, so cheap and readily available. Wouldn't do any harm if folk thought more about the environmental sustainability of meat consumption or the impact on livestock either.

It's good but not nearly as good as the one classic he's already been partially responsible for (apart from the Talk Talk later albums). This one

always good to have a new Ellman

This too, on Blue Note France and the Blakey tribute that Bresna references. A 10"

perhaps, I'm an Android

I can and have done all of those. Point for me is easy access to lots of releases.

Damn, this one hurts. What a legacy. Thank you Mr. Allen Great photo Soulpope, it says so much "Such was the hole that Allen left in his band, Kuti needed four drummers to replace him." Guardian

Iro Haarla.

I'm so reassured that it's "medical doctors" that are going to be used. You all should be nice and safe. "The highest form of intelligence" after all

A little more info here, including confirmation of the line up. Nice to seesome Brit representation https://www.backseatmafia.com/news-charles-tolliver-announces-gearbox-records-deal-and-new-album/

I'm doing my utmost to forget that I missed that...

They do, often as not, release on CD as well as LP especially if it's a release of new music rather than their historical releases so you might be lucky John. Fingers crossed.

New Braxton release. Duet with harpist. https://idischidiangelica.bandcamp.com/album/duo-bologna-2018 Sounding good on the first run

Gearbox Records tweeted today that they will be releasing a new Tolliver recording this summer entitled 'Connect'. No further details as yet. They usually do a good job so I'm looking forward to knowing more Watch this space, I guess
