Now playing…

Charles Tolliver - Connect

Charles Tolliver (Trumpet), Keith Brown (Piano), Jesse Davis (Alto Saxophone), Binker Golding (Tenor Saxophone), Lenny White (Drums) and Buster Williams (Bass).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… a mention of Charles Tolliver above from @TheKevster had me place this four track album released this past July into the queue since the album mention was not available on Qobuz. Opening track ‘Blue Soul’ is sounding mighty fine and look forward to the rest of the album!

Superb 1960s Brit-jazz compilation, on vinyl:

Guru - Jazzmatazz.

As it says on the cover, ‘an experimental fusion of hip-hop and jazz’. It works very nicely.

ECM at its inventive best here. Such a good album and the piano sound is so good.

Susanne Abbuehl - The Gift

Susanne Abbuehl (Voice), Matthieu Michel (Flugelhorn), Wolfert Brederode (Piano, Indian Harmonium) and Olavi Louhivuori (Drums, Percussion)

Streaming on Qobuz (88.2/24)… continuing on this morning with ‘The Gift’ with the sweet voice of Susanne and the music from this superb quartet in this 2013 release. Sounding mighty sweet …one very fine album.

Having trouble with Asset again - lost all artists in the “S” section.
To keep me calm listening to Wendy playing Sonic Seasonings - soothing!

Graeme · February 5, 2021, 8:57pm

That’s right, just slip a R2R tape in there while no-ones looking! ;0)
