Sophie Zelmani - Sing and Dance, on CD from 2002 (originally) The sensual voice and tones of SZ. If female vocal is your thing and you don’t like too much raucous power and simpler arrangements, this is one to look out IMV. Great repro too. ![image](https://d2ikyu8xyuibjx.cloudfront.net/original/3X/0/2/025cd8dc654400d3f04fc0a1c731fa2224a9584c.jpeg) ---

He explored every avenue of jazz (and defined others). Here he’s in post-bop venturing into the avant-garde. This is one amazing live jazz album. Larry’s solo version of George Harrison’s Something is truly sublime. ---

Starting out with nostalgia and probably the tracks that got me in to serious listening and the kit to go with that. ![image](https://d2ikyu8xyuibjx.cloudfront.net/original/3X/d/f/dfb0cd354de2180002102f4260da4a4c8b3b8d21.jpeg) Also reminds me of all that hope and opimism that I had and perhaps need right now. ---

I’m a big fan of Joe’s, but this album just isn’t doing it at all for me. Tired, formulaic songs, and, overall, … just boring. 👎 Think he’s running out of steam, somewhat. Thoughts, anyone? ---

I might be wrong, but I’m not sure that listening to Leonard Cohen will necessarily help with the hope and optimism. ---

I listened to the whole album a few times last year, and wasn’t inspired to come back to it until this afternoon … and like yourself, lasted until halfway through the second track. Now playing this, to restore the smiles, Chez Dave. ![](https://d2ikyu8xyuibjx.cloudfront.net/original/3X/e/0/e06db41b9367d64fe3097f8046afd0edb49078e1.jpeg) Dread Zeppelin - Un-Led-Ed.
