  1. I saw an Instagram post saying exactly the same yesterday, you perhaps or there's two copies on the way to resale. I haven't played mine in years, possibly a third
  2. Best to get it over and done with early
  3. That presupposes that Reading's free fall doesn't continue to League 2 next season...transfer embargoes, points deductions and Andy Carroll Dulwich trip sounds great (even with necessity to cross the river). I know someone who really enjoys taking young son to see Hastings Town. That level is where the real football is, perhaps
  4. The mighty Reading FC. Hometown club, watched them as a kid, now distant supporter
  5. Which is why I'm not too sad to be following my team in League One this season, first time for a while in tier 3...
  6. Nice cover design. Bet the music's pretty special too. I have so many recordings by both of them individually and a couple together that I'm not sure I need another but...
  7. I have copies of both of those down to your recommendations at some point over the last few years. Both work for me
  8. Peter Appleyard & Orchestra - Per-cus-sive Jazz [Audio Fidelity, 1960]
  9. Very much enjoying episode 22, my first episode. I don't visit Mixcloud often, is it possible to get a full track rundown somewhere on the app? Scratch that, seen how to do so now
  10. Sorry, not paying sufficient attention
  11. Coppola's 'One From The Heart' perhaps Although the Waits/Gayle album is hardly household famous except in my household Marvin's 'Troubleman'? Quadrophenia Tommy?
  12. Well it was definitely a precursor and crossover into Acid Jazz. Started around the great Jazz Revival that brought Courtney Pine, Steve Williamson et al. I suspect may even have been bubbling under in the club scene prior Here you go, not Blakey but Tommy Chase perhaps, but definitely IDJ I didn't dance...
  13. Harish Raghavan - In Tense [Whirlwind Recordings, 2022]
  14. My memory, a bit hazy, of the Jazz Dance movement in London is that there was a very good dose of Jazz involved. Groups like I Dance Jazz danced to Blakey's Messengers and similar hard bop, some Pharaoh tunes were big too alongside some more Latin influenced Jazz tunes. This was the first time I saw dancing to Jazz as a fairly common occurrence in the Jazz Cafe, Dingwalls etc
  15. I saw Chance live and would agree with that assessment
  16. Yes, I agree. Lots of pretty disastrous housing developments in the style here too but also some that are now enjoying a re-evaluation. A style that certainly divides opinion, still.
  17. Saw him a couple of times with ICP, great musician His first name is misspelt in the thread title, 'Tristan'
  18. Certainly some of its optimism Brutalism undergoing a major re-evaluation in UK. I'd say it was a style that followed but is distinct from Modernism as a style
  19. I remember that too. The Blood Ulmer album of the time was often found amongst post-punk collections
  20. That's probably my favourite of them all. 'Christmas from a hooker in Minneapolis' is genius, pure Waits. I think I began to lose interest because the rock element began to predominate a bit more.
  21. I know them all up to the end of that trilogy, then I stopped being so attentive
  22. I know, they've been pushing it on Instagram, I've stayed away...so far. I agree, the selection has been top notch
  23. Dead ones...
  24. I usually don't mind the 45rpm reissues, I have a few of the Blue Note Music Matters that sound great, but I'm not sure I want to break up the continuity of the music on this album anymore than just the once on a 33rpm LPs I have (two different pressings). Or not at all, as on my CD. That said, I'd love to hear what this sounds like
