Well, the AI tools being used to create artists and music whole cloth will be the next thing. There's essentially a radio monopoly with IHeartMusic owning a lot of radio stations. I don't have any doubts they'll start AI'ing their own shit and well you can figure out how much money that will make them. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-the-woman-behind-chart-topping-ai-artist-xania-monet-i-look-at-her-as-a-real-person/?intcid=CNR-01-0623 if you haven't seen the accompanying video to this article, it's embedded on the page and worth the 9 minutes to watch. The word "enshitifcation" is apropos. This is kind of like if I went to a professional kitchen and gave a chef some vague ideas of what I wanted them to cook and how I'd want it presented. Then, instead of giving credit to that chef for the resulting dishes, I'd just take the credit. And I wouldn't have to pay that chef anything.

I don't really hear chord structures (at least consciously) nor do I think about them when I'm listening to jazz from any era. But I like jazz and it makes up the majority of stuff I listen to. I can't be enough of an outlier on that for Dankworth's opinion to be correct. I have a friend who plays guitar and produces house music. He definitely listens for chords, etc. When he talks to me about most music theory stuff I just kind of glaze over. I get some of it but overall I just don't care about it.

I've never heard of this before but listening now and loving it. Thanks for the link.

Representative of popular music on the radio these days. I'm not sure if any instruments are actually being played, but the synths and bass aren't terrible for the genre. The vapid lyrics are just so bad though, and combined with autotuned vocals it's kind of a miserable experience. I'm sure there's fans out there though.

Great points. And what about those people that read several books at the same time, rarely finishing one before picking up another? Asking for a friend ...

His stats and play lately aren't worth 2 firsts for sure. But he's never played on a team with a good offense either, and a better offense can help defenders by putting pressure on the other team to make mistakes if they're trying to catch up. They overspent though, and anything short of a super bowl after that is going to be a disappointment. Jets were also trying to trade Breece Hall and received an offer from the Chiefs for a 4th Rd pick. Jets wanted a 3rd and held out. Kind of weird they'd do that after getting those 2 firsts. Not a Jets fan btw but have friends that are. I give them my condolences just about every season.

Second that notion. Best of luck!

Lockjaw & Shirley Scott's Prestige Cookbook collection. Track Smoke This is Shirley at her finest. What an intro.

Kynard's Your Mama Don't Dance Kynard's Woga. Breakbeats and then some

Nice. Ever been to Ghana before?

Charles Kynard's Afro-disiac Probably not the last Kynard I play tonight.

Colts going for broke this year with the trade for Sauce. Seattle's going for it too. Going to be interesting down the stretch to see who can wrap up these playoff spots. And massive respect for Joe Flacco. Probably the right move for the Browns ultimately, but giving him over to a division rival and then seeing him do this has to be tough.

Secret Sauce by Eric Ghost with Lincoln Goines and James McGilveray. Per the Bandcamp write up, Eric Ghost was the alias of Richard Barth Sanders, who apparently invented the paper blotter delivery mechanism for LSD. So a real pioneer I guess.

Danny Ward & Reality 70s Funky jazz from Seattle

What type of jazz did they play? I'm not familiar with the band name. Do you know when the album was released?

This is a great tune

Khan Jamal's Infinity on Bandcamp.

Nice intro. A real tone setter 2. I have no guesses. Never heard this before. Symphonic af with layers. I dig it 3 has some really good playing. transfixing at times. yet again no idea who this is. 4 is a mood. Guessing that's an oboe? with a flute and harp? seems like this could accompany a modern dance performance. 5 - this singer is confident and that works. She sounds a little like if Sheryl Crow sang jazz. 6 - love what's going on here. Guitarist has a great solo. Chatter intro and outro are cool too. 7 the rhythm section is killer. strong bass line lays down a great groove. the whole band really has it together too. I really like this one. 8 I really love great percussion in jazz and this song is a perfect example of how it elevates everything going on. perfect. no idea what's being played near that 9:30 mark. is a mic distorting the drum? Sounds cool regardless. 9 This reminds me of a Chico Hamilton track. Not 100% it's him but it's a great track either way. 10 strong playing again and another enjoyable song. can't make any guesses unfortunately. Really enjoyed this BFT. Thanks!

Incredible goal.

Too late

There was an article recently about the positive effects of music in prevention/treatment of dementia as well. Music- it's good for you in more ways than one!

That was really good. I don't know who the drum and bass players are but damn. Listening to this set now via the BN Connoisseur CDs, specifically the tracks with Edwin Swanston right now. Looks like he recorded a whole lot more on the piano. His organ playing is good and heavily blues based, at least on these tracks. His write up on discogs makes it sound like he was a good dude.

That's some of the best Wild Bill I've heard.

That would make sense. Thanks! I felt a little tension between him and Eardley for a minute and that sparked my interest.

Do you know who's on piano here? I went to discogs to find out but the CD doesn't list any pianist, even on the back cover photo which has all the other personnel.
