  1. That's a terrific pairing. RLJ is desert island territory for me, possibly 'Pirates' over that one, depends on the day
  2. No solo tracks on 'Ondas' so it's not the one @Erick seeks. But what a superb album it is, my LP sounds absolutely gorgeous. Christensen (one of my favourite drummers) and Gomez are so on it throughout
  3. Admirable reasoning there @Pim 1. I tend to agree but do buy LPs of new releases of artists that I really like or that the music sounds like it should be on LP (please don't ask me to explain this one, I can't!) 2. This has never bothered me perhaps because I'm old enough to have grown up with LPs so getting up is natural. I can get fidgety with a 70+minute CD these days 3. Completely agree about this. I have CD artists and LP artists for much the same reason. Interestingly I have Brahem's complete catalogue on CD so he's a CD artist in my head. So why did I buy the LP this time, see reason 1 above... 4. that was silly And as for them not touring here, I still blame f@@##£g Brexit, definite drop in European acts visiting (and who can blame them really)
  4. That's a great album whether it's the one being sought or not
  5. This made me wonder what she is doing now, according to wiki and discogs her last recording was 1994
  6. Nice, they're not playing the UK. I think the album is really strong, I'm surprised you didn't buy the LP.
  7. OK, cut the playing then
  8. If only they'd cut the chat Oh yes, and yes again!
  9. And when your sauna deflates...?
  10. Various - Music Is A Message From Space [Corbett vs Dempsey, USA 2025] Kimiko Kasai with Kosuke Mine Quartet - Yellow Carcass In Blue [Three Blind Mice, Japan 1974 RE]
  11. That's a great story
  12. There's only one Patti...
  13. Quietus reporting his death. https://bsky.app/profile/thequietus.com/post/3lnk2fkwi762y The last time I saw him live about 10 years ago he wasn't in great shape but gave a stunning performance. Pere Ubu were one of the best, although I only saw a later iteration live, and his subsequent solo albums with The Wooden Birds, The Pedestrians and Two Pale Boys made a big impact on me on their release.
  14. That makes sense, they did some previous CD reissues didn't they? I would love to know the story behind the recently discovered tapes
  15. London tickets went crazily quickly and we missed them despite being on full alert It's going to be great, I'm sure, enjoy!
  16. That's the one with the track of them playing in the street, right. Love it No it's not that one but the other BYG, as you were everybody. I still like B-XO though. Interestingly appears to be a UK focussed production as it's priced in £ and Le Gendre is possibly our best Jazz journo From "original tapes" with exec producer being one of the original producers, interesting given the history of BYG that I've learnt on here over the years.
  17. A couple of LPs by French vibist Michel Hausser, 'Vibes+ Flute' with Bobby Jaspar 'Holiday for Vibes and Cembalet' which featuring Michel Portal All in all hitting sweet spots of vibes, flute and clarinet. A new player to me, apart from some judicious online sampling.
  18. The trio is whispy if not Nordic, you have been warned!
  19. I find that that's a recurring issue when reviewing for a cull. Perhaps I should just listen more often to those I have...
  20. 'City Of Broken Dreams' is the one for me although I like the other recordings by the trio. This gives a different perspective and is definitely worth a spin https://www.discogs.com/master/1300627-Giovanni-Guidi-Gianluca-Petrella-Louis-Sclavis-Gerald-Cleaver-Ida-Lupino
  21. I think that trio works better without JBL
