No bat yesterday or today, I think he let himself out a window. Whew! I couldn’t take the panic Lucinda felt.

No rain overnight for the first night in a week, that’s welcome. I’m re-listening to this disc as it sounds so good. Two guitars but not “Django-like” to my ears.

I have a handful of different versions of this release by Miles. . . Blu-ray Audio, the two cd “Complete” version in the 24 Bit by RVG series, the two UHQCD, the two disc set last put out by Blue Note US. . . they all sound pretty darned good. This one too.

I bought this for the ODJB drummer Tony Spargo. How that guy can drum so well while whistling or playing the kazoo is beyond me.

Bryan Ferry - As Time Goes By

As_Time_Goes_By_(Bryan_Ferry_album).jpg.2a2268e5a6a04ec2b022425830d88868.jpg

Of all the dreaded 'pop star goes Great American Songbook' records of the 1990s maybe I like this one the most. It's one of the only ones where you can hear a feeling for the tunes. And there's some actual jazz in there too at times, albeit a sort of Beatles-esque British variety Trad. Shame that Ferry's voice isn't that great. 

Horrible cover.
