Kicking off my day off with:



Sheriff - s/t (Häpna)
v/a - Good God! A Gospel Funk Hymnal (Numero)

One meditative & minimalistic, the other rapturous & maximalistic, both pretty wonderful.

[Chris D]

Turned down the squawk on Monday Night Football and went to the turntable to "swing" the momentum. It worked!

Jazz at the Philharmonic -- The '40s: Japanese Verve 3 LP box. Jacquet's got it!

Chu Berry: The Calloway Years. Tenorific.

...except it's the Pablo Today with Zoot's mug on the cover. Great Benny Carter arrangements for big band. Sweeeeeeeeet!

Rhino re-released both of them last year as a four disc set. Great set, but I think its OOP now though.

[lazarus]

Anthony Braxton Willisau (Quartet) 1991

All 4 cd´s for the second time in the last few days. I love it!!
I want to see this group live but I guess it´s too late for that.

Five out of seven ain't bad. Your odds are improving.

Funny you'd listen to Hahn. Crouch would hate him. He's so....white and European.

Bye-ya

[Jesse]

Just returned from a lovely Tatsuya Nakatani solo percussion gig, set up with a listen, en route, to Sugimoto's Opposite.

You shouldn't hate on Miles like that

Since he's so ... black and American.

Cheers,

Rob

nice, I played this as people walked into the Saturday night of the Quake, before the Malfatti/Mattin set.

[Jesse]

Have you heard Nakatani around the city, Jon?

That solo percussion gig sounds like something that I might have dug, Jesse.

[Rob Damen]

Damn, Paul B, how could you miss mentioning George Michael from my orginal post ... he's white, European, gay and a pop musician? (And Hahn, he's was so ... Venezuelan) Maybe you should try expanding your hatred of people who aren't like you ... what with all the homophobic references and race baiting you seem so fond of.

Cheers,

Rob

I've seen him a couple times, yep. he's not really my taste, a bit too active and old-school EFI for me. nice guy, though. didn't he move to rural Pennsylvania a year or two ago?

[Jesse]

Fantastic musician, Ron, drawing many sounds and colors from a fairly minimal kit.

Yes, Easton, PA, wherever that is.
This current tour itinerary is exhausting to even read about, indefatigable.
I don't know how anyone maintains that pace and their basic sanity. Nakatani was nothing but friendly vibes, however.

Easton is right over the NJ border, across the Delaware river on route 78. Near Allentown and Bethlehem. Famous for being birthplace of Larry Holmes, where he owns a motel chain. Not what I'd call rural Pennsylvania...more an old former industrial area, now sort of trying to become a non-smokestack business center.

Where I live, now that's rural.
