This era of Duke, when he was exploring new ground, playing with younger players, excites me. 10 hours ago, jazzbo said: Jefferson Airplane “Somebody to Love” Culture Factory cd Great record. Read somewhere that this was even Jerry Garcia's favorite record (he may even be on it, playing percussion?) Got to hang with Grace Slick's daughter, decades later, at all places a concert in Sunrise, Florida at a Starship concert back in 1986. Quote
Rabshakeh Posted Monday at 07:34 AM Report Posted Monday at 07:34 AM Anthony Braxton - Solo (NYC) 2002 Not my favourite Braxton record. Revisiting it out of interest. El-P Featuring The Blue Series Continuum – High Water Now returning to another one that I owned back in the day and found disappointing. It is not that amazing, I guess, but I like it more than I did as a 20 year old. It is basically an acid jazz record. One track even has "hey hey hey" club vocals! Maybe at the time I expected more from the producer of Company Flow and Cannibal Ox collaborating with Matthew Shipp, with whom I was then a little fixated. One real issue with pre-Kanye hip hop was that producers were so used to very restrictive bars of rhythm, and you can hear that here. It sounded modern then but very old fashioned now.

Have some of those, the Good and Evil sessions, packed in a box along with the Shipp collaborations. Think even Evan Parker is on some of those sides. Otherwise, I'm in a trance. Every time I see the "hey, hey, hey" commercial, I want a pair of New Balance shoes and revisit playing basketball again (shattered a hip in high school, but hey, hey, hey, that was nearly 40 years ago)😁 Quote

And you don't have this record sleeve in an album cover frame hanging on your man-cave wall!!! Unknown players to me, but when ESP started their major reissue campaign, I scooped this up. Dig the late-60's freak-out vibe, like it for that reason alone. I mean the playlist says it all: Freeken, Happy Pretty, and Sweet. Time warp: Feel like I'm watching, "Dude, where's my car?"

Wish I would've went to one of Brotz' last shows, just didn't like the line up, enjoy this show! Who knows how long he is going to be around. Quote

Yeah I once made the mistake to skip a McCoy Tyner gig, thinking he would come to the Netherlands again but he didn’t and died a year later. I very much regretted that decision. Evan Parker plays in Belgium so that’s a 3 hours a drive for me but I decided to bring me wife and make it a two day trip to the city of Gent Quote
