Stefan,

I finally got that disc and no regrets. I enjoy it a lot. Thanks for the recommendation.

Haim

Agreed - it's a good un. Speaking of solo piano recordings...



New purchase, and sounding good so far.

Regards
Nigel

Haim: Great ! It's not always "easy digesting", but has somethign for you, also after 10th listen...

Nigel: Solo ? Must have it. Saw Marilyn (trio) in NYC, last Feb, and was very pleased. Thanks for pointing me to it.

cheers
Stefan

Well this seasons over and it's cricket for a while, ....

Football (soccer type) I presume. Does that mean we are in the three days between the championship ending, Euro2008, and then the three days before exhibition matches, then two days later the next football season?

I can remember when football was the winter game, and cricket the summer game.

Now if it would only stop raining for a little while I could go down to Headingley and watch some civilized sport.

Me too - those were the days my friend, I thought they've never end.

I thought Euro 2008 had been cancelled - no idea who is in it.

Till next season, I'll concentrate on Gloucestershire's assault on division 2 of the county championship, not the best of starts.

Have listened to a very fine recording of Led Zep this weekend (Thanks)

Wonderful when it is instrumental, but some truly awful vocals and lyrics. Still plenty of notes when the vocalists shut up.

As a Yorkshireman I am only too pleased to sing the praises of 'Gods own county', cricketers, artists, sculptors, poets, playwrights, but I do find it slightly strange that probably two of the greatest jazz-rock/fusion guitarists should have been born with twenty miles of where I sit.

I will post my favourite 'old Yorkshireman' joke in the padded cell to make up for it.

Apparently, Jean-Michel suffered an imaginative block when coming to name the eight tracks in this album!
The music is very good however : )

I love Brad's Radiohead covers. "Exit Music for a Film" is just classic.

I grabbed this at a record sale recently. After looking at the liner notes and discovering that it was not some lost treasure from the 60's but an anthology, and one mastered in the digitally dismal late 80's... I didn't have high hopes. What, at this late date, could I learn from and old hippie warhorse like JA, a group I probably haven't listened to seriously since my late twenties. For those who remember, and no I am not one of those who is nostalgic for a time I never experienced, however, surprisingly, this nearly did the trick. Not known as a singles band.... this encompasses as good a compilation as your likely to find.

Surprised that I was engaged for nearly all the four sides. Listening, through predictably muddy and murky digital mastering, sometimes fascinated and sometimes moved. Maybe they were one of the seminal bands of their times. " Hippies, when being a hippie required beatnik courage, daring and imagination. "
