Having spent the afternoon listening to Miles Davis (Tribute to Jack Johnson, Tutu and Walkin) and then the Ezra Collectives latest (Dance, no-one’s watching), I have moved on to Sinatra, Songs for young lovers. 24/192 Qobuz stream. Lovely.
Deadmau5/TESTPILOT - Some EP
Post football and pub celebrations with some down and dirty Zappa - Sheikh Yerbouti. Not his finest hour but cracking accessible music and yes his usual lyric subject matter. CBS double vinyl.
The new Lady Gaga album Harlequin (2024)
Some kind of soundtrack to the movie Joker: Folie à Deux. The music is “Vintage Pop” or big band jazz…
Elton John | The Beatles

Miles Davis’s fabulous Tutu. I’ve not played it for years and had forgotten how good it is. A great cover too.
For me BBC R6M is a great place to pick up on new bands coming through. Here is the latest one for me.
Honeyglaze and their second album, Real Deal, released recently.
The programme just finishing based on A Tribe Called Quest has been absolutely top notch
So sorry to hear this, please accept my sympathy, it doesn’t seem right to like the post under the circumstances, but I hope it shows, we are thinking about you
So sorry to hear Steve.
