So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

Vijay Iyer / Wadada Leo Smith – Defiant Life

Certainly better than anticipated from the conjunction of Iyer, Smith and ECM. There are sections that I enjoy a lot and it helps that there is some 00s EAI DNA in there (and that it is Iyer taking his hands off the piano in order to supply it for so much of the record).

Do you have to enter a prompt for these or something? This one seems to be quite tightly connected.

I'm not sure I understand the question.
Sometimes, I'll do special shows for the community.
This weekend is the Silver City Blues Fest,
so this show is in celebration of that.

Oh okay. That explains it. I knew that you did a show but I didn't realise that was what these were.  I assumed because of the name and the fact that you posted it here that it was some sort of algorithmically generated playlist to which you were listening, designed to showcase great eclectic music. This one wasn't as eclectic as they normally and had quite a strong core theme, hence why I asked. I hadn't realised you had put them together.

Oh, OK. Well, after putting them together in bits and pieces,
I like listening to the full thing to hear how it flows. In this case,
I'm just re-living Wednesday's show because the Festival just started
about 40 minutes ago. At the beginning of this year, I started posting
them - with audio - over on Substack (below) starting with show #444.
