So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

A nice morning, and I slept well, which was welcome. Starting off with another Andrew Hill, “Compulsion” on Blue Note, a Japanese SHM-CD version, UCCQ-5118.

 

 

Very percussive, and some interesting playing by John Gilmore.

Alice Coltrane “Journey In Satchidananda” Impulse Japan UCGU-9086 SHM-SACD, 2025 gatefold LP facsimile.

I haven’t listened to this music in many years. All I have on hand to compare it to is a 20 bit digipak US version, this certainly sounds improved.

Now the first disc of this newly released Jethro Tull box set with Steven Wilson remixes.

Miles Davis “Bitches Brew” Sony Blu-Spec CD2 disc 1

Been some time since I listened to the remix. Great music in any form–I think I have ten different versions of this release, three on LP, two on SACD, five on cd. I rotate them in listening.

I'm reading Philip Clark's biography of Dave Brubeck, so lots of DBQ listening for me.

The most recent album from Flora Purim. Reminds me of her album of Nascimento tunes, and also Monday Michiru work.

Flora Purim "If You Will" Strut cd

Almost every time I see this on the shelf I have to pull it out and play it. (Now for example).

Just a perfect disc is so many important ways. Players, song choices, engineering. . . wow.

This is one of Hawes' finest recordings, IMO.  Five stars!

The best Andrew Hill record of all time in my opinion. Period.
