What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (VOL V)

Going through a difficult time with my partner suffering a terminal illness and this has just let some light in.

Very sorry to hear that Flyme but I'm glad that music and light have come to you.

That was quick. Has always been an album I have "Travelled" to all over the world. Tonight I joined you for a few tracks on the train home.

Metheny left ECM after the First Circle album and moved to Geffen. My favourite album of his is Still Life Talking on the Geffen label (has just been reissued on Nonesuch). World meets rock meets jazz.

Great choice - the first Jarrett Trio album I bought and IMHO one of his best.

Another brilliant needle drop...awesome.

I love "THe Rover"...

I had bought the album on vinyl a couple of days before and hadn't got round to listening; your post promoted me to play it...Gordon.

Ooooooh...Really, really, really, really good. IMO. They're called 'Sometymes Why'. It's on Spotify.

I get 95+ percent of my music from my main dealer but the local hifi shop next to where I work had this plus Arbour Zena plus the Edward Vesala I posted earlier in the week on cd for £4.00 each.

Well those are deals not to pass by. Arbour Zena is a very nice album as well. The Vesala is a bit more challenging but still a good album. You are building a good ECM collection!

I got the new Evan Parker Electro Acoustic Ensemble recording today. I canNOT recommend it.


Bit of a U2 feel to the cover.

Bruce is now in Europe touring. Not long now till he hits the UK.

Me too Stu. Just arrived today and only had a brief listen. Needs a good, full concentration listen which I might do soon.

Lovely , she could do well I think .

Listened to this twice today

1997 Re-mix re-mastered and none the worse for it - some times you just need a blast of some honest no nonsense rock and roll from better days

On a new Miyabi/47.

Incredibly well produced album:
