Bob Dylan - Tempest, worth the price for "Duquesne Whistle alone.
Brilliant track. The original, by Belmont Tench, who wrote the song, is also great.
I believe it was co-written by Bob Dylan and Robert Hunter.
Dylan's version is the original. Tench's version is from 2014 I believe.
Vinyl released 2014 - Sticking with Adrian Crowley, brilliant album.????

Chris Potter - Follow the red line.
This is a live recording of Chris Potter in a quartet setting (tenor sax, fender rhodes, guitar and drums). The quartet plays a mixture of jazz, funk and jazz-rock music. Most of the songs are over 10 minutes long. So, there is lots of room for long solos by the band members.
- Drums – Nate Smith
- Guitar – Adam Rogers
- Keyboards [Fender Rhodes] – Craig Taborn
- Tenor Saxophone – Chris Potter
