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

@Neil0001 i think it was @TheKevster that introduced me to Jazz Sabbath which I love and bought on first listen.

Now playing…

Jakob Bro - Uma Elmo

Jakob Bro (Guitar), Arve Henriksen (Trumpet, Piccolo Trumpet) and Jorge Rossy (Drums).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… continuing on through the noon hour with Jakob’s latest release and the trio is sounding fabulous!

Bruce Springsteen - Letter To You.

Second listen for me and it’s sounding much better this time. Could be something to do with joint (beef) I smoked (Hickory) in the garden this evening. Also the wine Mrs. G. made me drink. :wink:

Tonight’s listening experience, Santana, Africa Speaks. Nice clean record. I picked this up in HMV for £15, money well spent.

Tell me about it ChifChaf. I think I’ve mentioned here before, Van’s not so famous gig here in Sydney in the mid 1980’s (only time he ventured down under) where it took him 30 minutes to come onstage whilst his poor band members strummed away, when he did he turned his back on the audience for the entire gig.

He appears to be a happier soul these days


Great remixes.

I’ve seen Van many times, when he’s good he’s brilliant, have seen him when he was drinking heavily…pint glasses of red wine on stage continously topped up by roadie…then he was really bad. First time was Knebworth 1974, he was fantastic. When he’s on form he holds the audience in the palm of his hand.

Bob Dylan - Rough and Rowdy Ways - release vinyl
His Bobness’s lockdown 2020 release, and I think it’s one of his finest, up there lyrically with his best work.

Every album Van has put out has a couple or so sensational tracks that are just sublime. Have most of his recordings
