What are you listening to in 2021 and why might anyone be interested

Excellent melodic jazz from the Shinya Fukumori Trio. Fukumori is a drummer and is joined by Matthieu Bordenave on tenor and Walter Lang on piano. It’s just a great listen and one of my favourite recent ECM releases. I’m finding a lot of their recent stuff a bit dull but this is brilliant.

This thread is too fast moving by far to see everything, appreciate your kind courtesy though.
No worries, it was an open reply for anyone interested anyway. Glad you like your “Scratch”…

Lovely slab of Afrobeat with a heavy political message from Femi & Made Kuti (Fela’s son & grandson). Streaming via Tidal altho I have a hunch the vinyl will be winging its way to Chateau BC ere long.
