So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[jazzbo]

A compilation of CTI items (most previously unreleased) by Benson. Nice disc.

George Benson “Space” CTI King Jazz Japan cd

Edited yesterday at 04:29 PM by jazzbo

[T.D.]

Japanese reissues:

 

The latter is film music from a weird Japanese movie Ke No Haeta Kenju. There are nice jazz tracks with Seiichi Nakamura (reeds) and Takeo Moriyama (d), strangely mixed in with Bach harpsichord numbers from some unknown recording (I can't tell which because all the documentation is in Japanese).

If you have the Google translate app you could use Google Lens to translate. I do that now with all my Japanese cd’s and it’s great to be finally able to read those liners

I never got into those later albums. The one on Impulse! I do enjoy a lot is the Village Vanguard concerts.

Now spinning:

Starting off a deliciously cool morning with some cool and sophisticated music . . . sounding so so good.

Tom Harrell “Prana Dance” High Note cd

 

 

Wayne Escoffrey and Johnathan Blake are so good here, as always.

[jazzbo]

One for All “Too Soon to Tell” Sharp Nine cd

I believe this is their first as an outfit, sounding quite appropriate after the Harrell disc.

I happen to be watching that DVD myself. 

Now listening:

 

 

[kh1958]

Stanley Cowell, Musa, Ancestral Streams (Strata East/Mack Avenue)

[Peter Friedman]

Irene Kral - Angel Eyes ; Live in Tokyo

[jazzbo]

Bob Dylan “Time Out of Mind” Sony Blu-Spec CD2

This is such an amazing, powerful album. The new remix is good, but I find that I prefer the original mix–maybe because I have had it so long, but maybe because the swampy density of the sound just seems appropriate for the material. I’ll never tire of this work–the songs, the sequencing, the mood.
