Ever eat the nut inside a peach pit? It looks and taste very much like an almond.

Indeed. Now playing Volume 2, which drops a notch (but just a notch, just one) in the Geniuses Bounding Unbounded department. It's still quite the sight to aurally behold.

Alabama Peru - LANDED!!!

Live at the Vanguard. These people are crazy, in the totally best way. Warne is literally everywhere at once, and Mosca... kicks out the jams.

Fwiw, the Mapleshade 30% off 3 or more CDs is legit. The site didn't automatically give it, but an email inquiry was promptly addressed and the adjustment made. Also, I ordered on a weekend (Saturday) and the order got here yesterday (Wednesday). Considering that P&H is built into the item price pre-discount. I'd say that's pretty much one helluva good deal.

Moanin' Frankie - Oh, Those Bases On Balls!!!

At the time, I remember thinking that it sounded like ECM without the jazz. Haven't thought about it since then. But obviously he enriched many peoples lives with that. RIP

I still like IG Culture. No reason at all to not have "jazz" improvisation here. No reason at all.

Yep.

United Future Organization, Kyoto Jazz Massive, Mark de Clive-Lowe (earlier on, he seems to be pivoting more to jazz these days). And of course... Featuring Jazz's own Donny McCaslin!!! Quite fond of this too:

Giblet Soccer - Easily Triggered

I think she transcended the notion of "Brazilian singer" even though she was a singer from Brazil and sang a lot of Brazilian song. Apparently there was no love lost between them for a good bit of a while and she never went back home.

Serious!

Tab Smith

"racy" means veering towards the sexual.
