I find it hard to keep track of 10” EPs, especially multi-artist ones. Never know where to file them.

Just found this next to some Hawkwind albums(!).

What a collection of live recordings - The Fall, JCClarke, Warsaw/Joy Division, The Drones, Steel Pulse.

Bought during an early iteration of my mild addiction to all things The Fall.

Starting off a very hot Sunday morning with a local Fanny Lumsden’s Fallow. Fanny just won 5 Golden Guitars (Aus country awards) which is quite extraordinary.

Definitely worth a listen.

I played this lots during the summer. Like the exquisite modern production, and a brief Denzel Curry appearance on one track!

I’ve only just stumbled on it. It was named best album of 2020 on JJJ. I’ll be playing it again.

Now playing…

Trygve Seim - Rumi Songs

Trygve Seim (Soprano Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone), Tora Augestad (Vocal), Frode Haltli (Accordion) and Svante Henryson (Violoncello).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… Just returning from a very long walk on a lovely Saturday afternoon and going with a little mix of poetry and music. I have not given this a spin for awhile and it does need to get out for a spin more often, Trygve sets the music based on the poetry of Jalaluddin Rumi using the English-language versions from Coleman Barks and Kabir Helminski. An album that would not be everyone’s cup of tea but I completely enjoy!

Trygve Seim - Helsinki Songs

Trygve Seim (Tenor and Soprano Saxophone), Kristjan Randalu (Piano), Mats Eilertsen (Double Bass), and Markku Ounaskari (Drums).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… continuing on this evening with another of Trygve’s albums, this time ‘Helsinki Songs’ and it also has been a while since I have taken it out for a spin. This is one fantastic quartet and they are sounding might fine! One very sweet album…
