The Eagles, The Long Run, on CD. Follow-up to Hotel California and nowhere near it in quality and songwriting. It seems it was supposed to be a 2LP set, but things had started to unravel by this time.

Pat Metheny Group - Offramp
I have this on vinyl, but I was too lazy to fire up the LP12. Hence, listening to the CD rip. A fine album in any format. Pat playing his Roland G808 synth guitar.

One of the best jazz voices out there and a sleek production by Brian Lynch.

Air | Moon Safari | 1998
I played this to death back in the day and heard it just about everywhere else, tv ads, radio, friends, dinners. It got so I could no longer abide it from over exposure. Back enjoying it again in the past year or so.

John Scofield and Pat Metheny - I Can See Your House From Here
After Offramp, I felt in need of more Pat. Then I spotted this. Two jazz masters, each with very different styles, but it works so well, creating some beautiful music together.

Max Roach’s 1958 album Deeds, Not Words which finds the jazz great blurring the boundaries of hard bop. Produced by Orrin Keepnews , the fine 8-song documents the beginnings of Roach’s association with the great young trumpeter Booker Little and is innovative in its use of Ray Draper’s tuba as a melody instrument. Tenor saxophonist George Coleman and bassist Art Davis round out the excellent quintet. The Riverside date is highlighted by the popular jazz standard “You Stepped Out of a Dream,” the Sammy Cahn/Jule Styne penned “It’s You or No One” and the unaccompanied Roach drum showcase “Conversation.”

Deeper Shades Of Hooj (Vol 1) - 1997
CD rip
This first one of the three volumes probably my favourite as it has a couple of L.S.G (Oliver Lieb) tracks.
Progressive trance, loved it in its 1993-1997 heyday.

Ornette - Lady BC out at the book club coven so I can play stuff normally verboten. Ornette Coleman New York is Now! Not one of the classics perhaps but some cracking playing from a great band who aren’t his usual compadres. Blue Note vinyl.
