La Saboteuse - Yazz Ahmed
Grave Flowers Bongo Band - Strength of Spring
Heavy Psychedelia with pedals blazing, Gabe Flores cranks his guitar up to ten and goes off in search of the perfect riff, perfect Manna for guitar freaks. There’s a bit of Bolan in there with Animal Lord sounding like Black Sabbath with Bolan on vocals!! Play Loud.
Listening to the Fergus McCreadie Trio based on a recommendation in the paper a few weeks ago. This is their second album and it’s great, contemporary piano driven jazz. I reckon @seakayaker you may like based on some of your recommendations in the past.
