After a couple of indifferent releases, this was a return to form with her sixth album.
Back to Wishbone Ash’s Argus, while waiting for MotD on the gogglebox.
Some cracking '70s guitar work there beats the cr@p out of the cr@p I was watching on iPlayer from the Reading Festival!
Benjamin Clementine.
At least for now (2015)
Now playing…
Manu Katché - Third Round
Manu Katché (Drums), Tore Brunborg (Soprano Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone), Jason Rebello (Piano, Fender Rhodes), Pino Palladino (Bass), Jacob Young (Guitars) and Kami Lyle (Vocal, Trumpet).
Streaming on Qobuz (88.2/24)… a mention from @Neilb1906 above had me place this album in the queue which has not had a spin in several months and Manu and this sextet is sounding sublime! The opening track ‘Swing Piece’ is mighty sweet…
Now playing…
Manu Katché - Playground
Manu Katché (Drums), Mathias Eick (Trumpet), Trygve Seim (Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone), Marcin Wasilewski (Piano), Slawomir Kurkiewicz (Double-Bass) and David Torn (Guitar).
Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/24)… continuing on this afternoon with Manu and this fabulous and talented sextet and they are sounding mighty sweet! …one beautiful and fantastic album.
Recorded 30 years ago,
Earlier:
The defective used CD arrived this afternoon causing the 3.5 to skip and produce terrible sounds. On the other hand, the much newer external disc drive of the Mac read it successfully so I burned a new disc which the 3.5 could digest.
Highly recommended.
