And that is definitely on my 'to buy' list

It was on my 'to buy list' but I did some sampling online (from one of the unmentionable sites) and decided to relegate it to the 'one day, maybe' list. I'll be interested to hear if you, the dogs or even Mrs C eventually come to love it I'm now hearing Akira Sakata playing on 'Young Americans', interesting isn't the word...

Heiner Stadler - Brains On Fire, Volume1 [Labor]

Which sums up rather a lot of Poliakoff's recent work. I was looking forward to this one breaking that run...

There was a previous thread, somewhere. I remember posting to it when I saw it the cinema a couple of months ago

Joe Chambers - Double Exposure [Muse]

I'm enjoying 'Years and Years'. I think it's an interesting attempt to address some important ideas but within an accessible family drama. It fails when it does mostly because the issues are too foregrounded. The Thompson character is very disconcertingly reflective of today's reality of Farage, Robinson and co. I think the character is less Trump and more identifiable as in an English nationalist\fascist tradition of Mosley et al

Thanks for posting. A good read and overview. This was the phrase that really made me wonder "the family traveled in a VW bus...which Cherry redesigned so that he could sit in the lotus position behind the wheel, using his hands to work the brakes" Great improvisation

The vocal tracks are great, Twible at his best and the choir is superb. The Fela tribute is a highlight. Loving this

Mine's arrived. Straight in the player, sounding great. Nicely packaged, obviously a lot of thought and care has gone it producing thi

Has anyone got a copy of this they want to offload? Would like it to be as clean as possible. And yes, I do realise it's available on CD.

That's it indeed. There are some advantages of living here...

Root canal and extraction £62. Glad I'm not a performer and happy with roguishly inscrutable smile

Yeah, Hamer really stood out on the first listen, more so than Harriott himself. "Reg, give the bloke his trumpet back in one piece, will ya"

Indeed. I'm going for the gappy smile option...too old to care now

Yes, I was going to note something about the power of the music overcoming the 'limited' sound quality... I blame GP for the purchase of this, wine in hand watching Jazz 625 thinking "why haven't I got that Harriott LP?". The joy of internet shopping, with wine

I'm in the midst of the self same dental treatment so I feel your pain. I am also very very grateful for our National Health Service looking at your costs

Joe Harriott Quintet - Swings High [Cadillac]

I'm a big fan of those Family albums and a few of the others on that list. This makes me think I should head over to Spotify to check out the names I don't know. Always an education, John

Which makes it even weirder as the album I'd been listening to previously was her 'Transfiguration'...

I have no idea but I'm very keen to find out. Any Brown from that time will have me investigating. Another live release like the Giuffre perhaps

Thank you for posting this. I was wondering what to listen to, saw this and thought "why not?". Thoroughly enjoying it, Leon T, Flora P, I had no idea! Last time I listened to Santana was probably "Moonflower' or 'Abraxas' in 1976 or thereabouts....I had no idea they were this Jazzy. A revelation!

Thanks for posting, Ubu. Ordered immediately

I didn't know about Elixir. Now I do I may have to chase down a copy
