2 artists both new to me who I heard on Elizabeth Alker’s R3 programme this morning. Jane Antonia Cornish is a modern composer and we heard Seascape iii which is beautiful. Hiroshi Yoshimura is a Japanese electronic composer. This album released in 80’s and then unavailable until now
David Crosby. If I could only remember my name. Ive said it before Tony but I will say it again, the cover photography is stunning.
First of the day
Count Basie Orchestra and Duke Ellington Orchestra - First Time! The Count Meets The Duke, two great big bands playing in unison.Fantastic.
John Coltrane - The Complete 1961 Village Vanguard Recordings
Playing disc one from this glorious set, with Eric Dolphy.
The Rolling Stones - It’s Only Rock’n’Roll, it may be Mick Taylor’s swansong, but doesn’t he play beautifully on “Time Waits For No One” ?.
The Beatles - Let It Be… Naked
The only thing I dislike about this is the cover design - it could have been so much better!
Van the man this morning. Only started listening to this again recently.
Forgotten how good this album is.
It’s a lovely warm day, brother and family coming over shortly for a garden party. Some classic bossa from a brilliant box set seems just the thing to ease into what should be a fun afternoon and evening…
Wings - London Town.
From experience banish any pets from assembly room as vital bits tend to disappear
