Holy Ghost

Umm, not my taste, but others may dig it.

Played it last night, and still affordable. Rounding the corner, my wife thought I was playing Bach. It is a gorgeous record, but get why Columbia didn't distribute it here in America, as 1977 meant Kiss's Love Gun was blaring on the radio, or fixate on radio-friendly tunes (frankly, like those radio-friendly tunes). A great record that can be had for under a Jackson.

Woah, this is cool. Wow! Playing now:

Really appreciating what a genius this man is. From the Blue Notes' right up to the modern day collaborations, Herbie is one of those artists that should be in the same talk as Miles and Trane. Incredible life, incredible human being.

Never seen this recording before, wow. But "Eric" got me in the mood for this Found this used at a record exchange when I was in PA a year ago. Awesome.

Lost, does not necessarily mean gone. I gotta think somebody on earth someplace, has a copy somewhere. Even if the drumming is shitty, I still want to hear it.

You got a point with the Western Conference. Yep, dum, dum trade according to me to this day, lt makes no sense to me, but can say the numbers are exactly right in the East.

Pretty obscure. Never seen it, yet listen to it. Love who's on it. Wish more Joe Pass and Jim Hall Pacific Jazz's, leader or sideman dates, were made available in the US. Only have one of each:

Not to fixate on labels, like I have an obsession with Blue Notes or something, but I have to say in my opinion, Sir Richard Branson's quality department details at Virgin Classics match Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff's detail for the highest quality of music in the most appealing of packaging. Like Lion and Wolff in the mid 60's, Branson even gets edgy with his side project, Virgin Venture, which released a Last Exit record. I place Branson right up there with the top producers in music, and this is the same dude that has bungee jumped off a Vegas hotel and flown in outer space. Wow. Cheers.

🤘Ha, Ha, Patrick, you nailed it, love your post, you singing my song. Heat was turned stoned cold on their turf. LOVE what Atkinson has brought to the Cavs. Love to see the transition from last season under J.B. who couldn't get any farther than the Celtics last postseason; Detroit can keep J.B., who led the Cavs from advancing to 3rd round last year. This year, thinking we are going to beat the Pacers, Celtics, which will be a series rematch, but far different from last season, we are going to steal Oklahoma's Thunder. I can feel it.

Yeah, weird oversight. Didn't even notice. But BN quality is not the cornerstone of the BN CD era, especially when it comes to the Connoisseurs and RVG's. The Kicker (among many others) is the flagship of who the hell is not looking in the quality control dept before it goes to the pressing plant. Now that's funny 😆
