What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XII)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2016
2016 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.
Last year's thread (and links to previous years) can be found here;
Late Friday night chillout jazz from a fine group of master session players
Joe Henry - "Kindness Of The World" (1999)
Scrap that last one.
After listening to this , you friends will not know you any more ".
Michael Stanley - "American Road" (2005)
On his third date for Blue Note within a year, Wayne Shorter changed the bands that played on both Night Dreamer and Juju and came up with not only another winner, but also managed to give critics and jazz fans a different look at him as a saxophonist as well as a composer.Released fifty years ago.
Really good late 70s prog-rock/fusion...
John Mellencamp. Trouble No More. On CD from 2003. I posted this one recently as a first listen. It's struck quite a chord with me and has been getting lots of listens in my room. Highly recommended whether a big Mellencamp fan or a newcomer. Despite being an all covers album, provides a nice insight into the essence of Mellencamp's artistry.
Missed out on this one, having a listen and most probably will buy it...

I had totally forgotten that this was co-produced with Dave Stewart (Eurythmics).
Classic 1970s comedy on a Saturday morning before the football. What could be more appropriate? Vinyl:
First play of the new Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds album
Just before exploring some new musical fields...
The new one sounds pretty good, now in the middle of it...
A bit of bombast for a nice Saturday morning.

Had also a short dip into this one. A totally ignored artist for me, and most probably something I should revise....
