Holy Ghost

The Magic of JuJu is one of my favorite Impulse! Shepps. Contrasts, I am waiting for a copy to graze my presence.

This is one wicked record.

@ Gheorghe: I get it, what you say here resonates with me: "Nowadays I rarely listen to "straight ahead jazz" because my moods and spirits go more into other stuff in "so called jazz", mostly in awareness of geniusses like Albert Ayler, Pharoah Sanders, and my beloved Sun Ra. Almost all music I have in my head, all the sounds I hear, all the feelings come from that directions, period." Awesome.

Meaning the Coltrane set. Everything looks great about it, how is it? For my wife (and me🙂) She loves Chet 😍 Yeah, this and

And this is my opinion, the first real deal heavy metal record:

How Black Sabbath clicked; it happened here:

RIP. Chuck was one of my greatest inspirations to go into music in the 70's (I was under 10 years old, to put that into perspective). Weird twist, this tune is one of me and my wife's favorite songs for years 😊

Headlines in the Wall Street Journal again. Huge turnout.

Both RIP: Ozzy and Dio both brought to Black Sabbath their own genius ways. Saw Dio twice, this dude was the real deal.

HUGE Rush fan. Glad to see somebody else besides me who listens to Rush after Power Windows🤘Saw Rush on the Presto tour '86 and wow, the second half of the concert was the first half of 2112. YESS!!! @EKE BBB, For Ozzy, RIP!:

Wow. Those inside gatefold photos.

Before I get bogged down with all of the awesome music I've seen played above, I'm trippin' on these two CD's I picked up in Chicago two weeks ago: Favorite Jimmy Smith I've heard up to this point, wow! 👍🤘😊 Mingus!!! Album photo is AWESOME!

Brilliant record, right along with this one: Happy birthday! Edit, to ask Chuck in particular, do you know where Roscoe came up with the word, "Congliptious"? Never heard this word in use anywhere else; is it a made up word or something?

Great man, great stuff. Sonny was in my opinion always an educator too, making massive donations to music programs, Oberlin College of recent, comes to mind.

Missing David S. Ware

This is for Geezer, a brilliant writer:

So is this:

That's hysterical! My mom had that 45, and I was playing it and singing the same thing. It was her single, so she couldn't make me return it, ha!

Thank you for this review 👍 I really like the Warner Bros. material (that band he had then, wow). Glad to hear he's mixing it up instead of hyper-focusing on BN. No intermission, eh? Not a chance to have a drink in the rotunda? 🧐

Guess I'm glad I didn't have to work with him, but what did Chet do that was so bad to mess up your friend from ever talking about it, like forever?

🤯 Wha??? and they didn't play together?!? What a treat that would've been!!!

We Sold Our Soul...was released during the dull period following A blah record, but Warner Bro's wanted their investment back. Basically a repackaging of the first three records, leaving off key tracks, like "Into the Void" on Master of Reality. Still charted and did well, and afforded them another okay record. By 1977, Ozzy and Bill became reliabilities. These dudes were horning and drinking so hard, they wind up in hotels for days that they didn't even book.

Indeed! The contrast, the switch, it was makes Sabotage stand out!

Glad to have this! Cover's cool, has this feel:

Woah.
