Now spinning:

John Scofield - Bar Talk (Arista Novus, 1980)
with Steve Swallow and Adam Nussbaum

Strong early Sco.  He's one of those guys who seemed to have his own, distinct voice right from the git-go.

Michael Garrick Septet - Black Marigolds [Argo, UK Stereo 1966]

I have the Vocalion CD reissue of Black Marigolds.  I need to get that out & give it a spin.  It's been a while.

I think it's a really interesting album that covers so many of Garrick's many bases -straight ahead, modal, classical, poetry, religious music. Some reviews suggest it doesn't hang together as an album and whilst I can see why that's said it does do so for me as a snapshot of a time in his career. 

The very received English pronunciation of the poet is a time capsule in itself.

Worth that revisit I'd say.

This copy was a ridiculous treat to self funded by selling off most of my remaining Rock LPs. It will get played a lot more than the Pixies did!

[clifford_thornton]

yeah, not a bargain bin album at all! But certainly fascinating and probably one of a few Garricks I'd really like to own on vinyl (have most on CD).

That sorta trade makes perfect sense to me!

Pulling it from the shelf right now.

But first I'm going to finish up this LP, which is now spinning on my turntable:

Oliver Lake - Impala (Gramavision, 1987)

Another Lake LP that features the wonderful Geri Allen.

I don't know 'Impala', will see if I can stream it

I was surprised how sought after some of the early pressings of the Pixies are these days. Great fun in their time but Garrick's a lot more my energy levels these days...

Pod is the best Pixies album and the only one you need

[mjazzg]

Had them all, sold them all.  Saved a Throwing Muses though

You take good care of yourself!

Randy Weston - Uhuru Afrika (Roulette, stereo. Half of a 70s twofer reissue.)

There is a tropical storm coming, so I'm spinning exotica, squeezing limes, and drinking coconut water/fizzy water mocktails!

Nearly bought an original copy of this recently - usually like pretty well everything Teddy ever did so that is interesting to hear.

Thanks for the positive thoughts!  Latest models show it further out in the gulf.  If it continues on that way, it means we'll get a lot of rain, mostly.
