Can't believe I missed no.7, I've listened to the album at least twice whilst the BFT has been up. It's one of my favourites of the last couple of years 

no.11 makes complete sense too now. I only have one of his or the Pyramids' albums so maybe I have some excuse.

But I have little excuse not getting the Bley and the Burton, both in my collection.

I was a great selection 

[randyhersom]

Agreed.  I've checked out Ackamoor and Sinephro on Amazon since finding out who they were.  And the Galper had me clueless until the very end.

[T.D.]

Thanks, some good music on the selections. I was pretty much clueless on everything and never posted, sorry.

It was a busy month at work...Spent a lot of time on early piano tracks and wound up stopping at #10. So never got to #12, the only one in my collection.

Glad you enjoyed it. I honestly thought you'd get 7 quickly. But I've been there too with these BFTs. It's crazy how something you know can still get by you.

Both Ackamoor and Sinephro are new discoveries for me too. I think Ackamoor's been around longer but he's under-recorded if anything. This Galper track proved to be unpopular here but I still dig it.

Glad you enjoyed it. I definitely rec the Pyramids album. Some really nice variation and exploration there.

Just dug out my 'Passengers' LP for the first time in ages because of this BFT. Sounding lovely.
