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

It must be because it’s one of the best sounding standard reissues I own and one of the records I use as a reference when testing new kit.

Jon Batiste can regularly be seen as the in-show performer on Late Night With Stephen Colbert on CBS. In 2020 Batiste, along with Nine Inch Nails band members Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, he composed the score for the Disney / Pixar animated film Soul. That won The Academy Award for Best Original Score. He’s a very talented guy and has released some good music too!

New Order. Movement. I was forced to watch “The pursuit of love” against my will but it did contain some decent contemporary music including a bit of this.

Robert Randolph & The Family Band - Got Soul
Tough, funky, blues, soul and rock with a huge sound. Blinding pedal steel playing. Loving this album.

Watched this a while back. He really is an effervescent character and talented musician. Not a bad voice either. Tiny desk concerts are a fabulous source of quality music. Thanks for the reminder.

Have to give this one a spin. I am actually a bit confused about all the Blue Note editions and whether i enjoy RVG’s take on recording and mic placement :slight_smile:

Nils Petter Molvær - Khmer

Really growing to love this. I think it true to say it’s a bit of a favourite of what I will call the ‘ECM posse’ here :slight_smile:
