David Ayers Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 New Rava title due in August from ECM - On The Dance Floor. Dust off those boogie shoes! It's a Michael Jackson tribute, I believe. Still not curious? Still no takers? Well he's touring it and it's coming out whether you want it or not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Berger Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 New Rava title due in August from ECM - On The Dance Floor. Dust off those boogie shoes! It's a Michael Jackson tribute, I believe. Still not curious? Still no takers? Well he's touring it and it's coming out whether you want it or not! At first I thought you were kidding, but now I'm intrigued. I wonder what the look on Manfred Eicher's face was when Rava brought it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
six string Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Am I alone in thinking that is a bizarre idea? Not so much a tribute to MJ or even a jazz tribute to MJ but a jazz tribute to MJ by ER? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete C Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 If Bollani is part of the project he may have had something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete C Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Joel Forrester does a great version of "My Guy," but he got mad at me when I suggested he do a Motown songbook album. Joel also does a version if the Fleetwoods' "Come Softly to Me." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ayers Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Jackson was pretty much a genius - juust about, though if you put him against Astaire... Interesting Rava is going for mainly later songs. If this is a record with some real beats then I am in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIyjTvpUh6Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valeria Victrix Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 To answer the thread title - Yes, me for one! I very much enjoyed The Pilgrim and the Stars, The Plot, and Tati. I think his early stuff had more edge, whilst his more recent stuff is smooth, suave and makes for a lovely listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
