What are you listening to in 2023 and why might anyone be interested?

Anyone listened to these guys? Seen them a few times in Greenwich Village. Always impressed live with the tuba addition. Sounds great to me on disc too.

Rocks Off, socks on.

The (non-hires) Qobuz file is the best I’ve heard this mastered. It’s better than my Bob Ludwig Virgin cd release.

Listening to a selection of their stuff now, thanks for the tip. Interesting mix of styles and instrumentation - love that tuba. Bet they’re great live.

Bob Dylan - Street Legal. Listened to this earlier on vinyl. I think this was the first Bob Dylan album I ever bought in my teens. It must be decades since I since I last heard it, but I wanted to hear Changing of the Guards as I love that song.

Little bit of Al on this sunny afternoon. Al Stewart - Past, Present and Future. My second favourite of his. Saw him in Bristol a couple of years back, great gig, even though he does look like a geography teacher trying to be down with the kids these days.

Jonah Tolchin - Fires For The Cold. I don’t know much about Jonah, but it seems he has released a few albums since 2012. In a folky singer-songwriter vein, with some interesting guests, such as Rickie Lee Jones, Jackson Browne, Sara Watkins and Fred Tackett. Also, contains a cover of Little Feat’s Roll Um Easy.

Remix the Universe, New Age Doom / Lee “Scratch” Perry

Different direction for Lee, mostly away from the standard reggae/dub constructs and some great dynamics to give your system a good workout…

Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady

I saw this mentioned on Twitter in a ‘top five jazz’ thread and thought I hadn’t played it for a very long time. During that time my stereo has changed beyond all recognition. Last time I played it was on a CDS2, NAC52, 2xNAP135 and NBLs. It sounded good, but I realise now how much I was missing. This is an astonishing work.

Led Zeppelin. Coda. 1982. Compilation of odds and ends. Sadly not the expanded version, which I thought I was ordering when I bought it 2 or 3 years ago.

Gorgeous day, glad I took it off.

Done with the chores and now some K&D and end of day workout, cold ones in the fridge being eye’d.
