Fieldwork: Thereupon

Sometimes, I wonder what it means that, at least on this board, my interests regarding new releases seem to be closest to someone who is exactly 40 years and a month older than me... I guess it means that great taste skips generations at times.... (my favorite releases this year so far are the Amina Claudine Myers solo album, Shakkei by Alexandra Grimal and Giovanni di Domenico as well as Tilburg Noord by Mete Erker but that's all more lowkey/local stuff compared to Fieldwork)

 

what I bought these days: My first "Tonepoet", heavily discounted, Picture of Heath, and At the Piano by Hampton Hawes

I'll take that as the compliment I believe you meant it to be.

I ended up putting in a fairly large order of random used CDs from Dusty Groove.  The main CD that caught my attention was Charlie Rouse - Soul Mates (Uptown), largely curious about the interplay between Rouse and Sahib Shihab, but I also got Eddie Harris There Was a Time (Echo of Harlem) (Enja), Larry Young's Mothership (possibly have this in some form already, LP??, but it was cheap), a couple of George Wallington CDs, and Lou Donaldson's Play the Right Thing (Milestone). 

I suspect I'll end up paying some import fees, but I'll find that out in a week or so.

I really like that Eddie Harris CD. I bought it when it came out and I play it pretty frequently.

That's the one with 6 guitar players - I believe.

It definitely looks promising.  I also put in an order for a few things on Bandcamp, as it was Bandcamp Friday.
Gary Smulyan Royalty at LeDuc
Eddie Higgins Haunted Heart
Tsapiky! Modern Music From Southwest Madagascar
Mr. Bongo Record Club No 7
Soft Boys Underwater Moonlight (not the recent remastered version but an older version with a ton of bonus tracks)

I knew it sounded weird but it was supposed to be a compliment, yes!
