| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Thanks for that rundown on Phoenix, @artemus_5 . I hear what you are saying about the progression of a band's sound and music even though I, personally, did not care for their change in style. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Hey, @artemus_5 I will have to look into Phoenix. Don't know it at all. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Grand Funk Railroad - Closer to HomeDon’t think I ever played it through beginning to end. Really enjoyed the whole thing.Love Mel Schacher’s bass.(Thanks to artemus 5 for planting the seed to re-visit GFR) | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report A haphazard bit of catching up and some belated greetings...@tuzarupa - welcome. Saw your post (posts?) mentioning Tommy Flanagan. I love his economical and elegant style. Truly a "less is more" player. Underrated compared to his more "flash" cont... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Persuant to recent mention of Blue Jeans Cables, this might be of interest:https://www.bluejeanscable.com/articles/iconoclastintro.htmThanks to Doug Schroeder for the tip. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thanks for the suggestion @spiritofradio I will see if I can find Sanfona on Tidal to get a "trial" listen. I have a few other LPs by him on , but not that one.@petg60 - Magico is worth tracking down. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @petg60 If you haven’t yet, check out Magico by the same Gismonti et al ECM lineup. Equally as wonderful as Folk Songs. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Dylan - The Bootleg Series Vol. 14More Blood, More TracksLate to the party, of course, but very impressed with how strong the NYC sessions were/are. As good as and maybe even better in some ways than the MN-sessions based recording that got rele... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @frogman Yes, yes, and YES!Sorry the YouTube link didn't work. Was supposed to take one to the full Gershwin's World album which is relevant to subjects of recent discussion: Joni Mitchell and George Gershwin. Great review of the album on the A... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @keegiam Thanks for your follow up comments re HH’s The River: The Joni Letters as well as that "making of" link. Tastes definitely differ. Me personally, never heard of Corrine Bailey and honestly wasn’t taken with her voice on that recording. No... | |

| Now they're planning the crime of the century Hello to you, @slaw. Hope you and yours are healthy and safe as this pandemic grinds on.I don't buy too much new vinyl but in fact bought a good condition used Eye of the Storm LP a while back. Rick Davies had his moments but generally like be... | |
| Now they're planning the crime of the century A preference for "Even in The Quietest Moments" myself, and Fool's Overture, in particular. Love Hodgson. "We shall never surrender." | |
| Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563No time now for a longer response to your several recent posts but thank you very much for the Duane Allman/jazz connections link. That is a great article and warrants re-reading; not to mention checking out RR Kirk's music. THANK YOU f... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563I enjoyed reading your Hendrix "appreciation". Don’t know that I hold him in the exact same high esteem you do, but I’m not prepared to argue against it. An innovator, good lyricist (at his best, a poet) and gifted with an ear for beautif... |
