So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[Ken Dryden]

This live music was restored from a soundboard cassette requested by a member of the band and issued by Amoeba Records as a  2 LP set for Record Store Day. The sound is pretty good, though the announcements are at low levels due to Gram Parsons' soft speaking voice.

I agree. My system is geared more for cd and SACD and the price for these is better.

Jimi Hendrix and Band of Gypsies, Songs for Groovy Children

On disc four of this. For me, this is the best Hendrix set ever released. His best band (Band of Gypsies) in four concerts on two consecutive days, awesome guitar, and great sonics.

Heard it at the music store (Candid CD reissue) and had to get it. Didn't know of this Giuffre record!

Jackie McLean “Demon’s Dance” Blue Note RVG Edition Japan

Woody Shaw! And LaMonte Johnson channeling McCoy Tyner.

It´s one of my favourite albums from that period. They are so great. I think, Woody Shaw´s composition "Sweet Love of Mine" is on that.

My wife’s niece and her husband and her darling boy and girl are in town for a week plus from Austin and we spent the day with them. . . we may spend almost every day with them as the kids love my wife so and they are real corkers.

But this morning is colder and raining and Brazilian music seemed a good start to the day–and joea Bosca’s happy and warm music seemed just the right fit.

Miles Davis “Sorcerer” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 2023

Wow. This is the Wilder remix and it never sounded better.

Haha, you're right, this is lucky. The selection at Gibert Joseph in the latin quarter in Paris remains really good, and the employees of the jazz section very enthusiastic, despite the move downstairs and loss of space. The shop was a mainstay during my student years, one could find really good second hand CDs on a tight budget.

That is very cool!!  I will have to keep that in mind when I make it back to Paris!

On another board there was discussion of jazz vocalist favorites, and I was going to play a Helen Merrill disc next, but couldn’t find it easily, so opted for this because I wanted to hear some Joel Ross, and there’s some of his vibes here.

Greg Spero (piano)
Makaya McCraven (drums)
Marquis Hill (trumpet)
Joel Ross (vibraphone)
Jeff Parker (guitar)
Darryl Jones (bass)
Irvin Pierce (tenor sax)

This Motohiko Hino album has a weird selection of tunes, but some outstanding piano by Masahiko Satoh:
