What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XIV)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 31 December 2017
On the eve of a new year, it's time for a new thread.
Last year's thread can be found here:
George Harrison - Gone Troppo, a much maligned effort from George but as with most releases from ex -Fabs there is always something to be enjoyed.Typically there is some beautiful guitar playing throughout.
Listening to Everton v West Ham on BBC Radio 5 Live.
Gulp...
Now Playing..........
Ketil Bjornstad - The Light
Ketil Bjørnstad (piano), Randi Stene (mezzo-soprano) and Lars Anders Tomter (viola).
Streaming on NAS....... this is simply beautiful music and works perfectly as the album to open up this Sunday morning with! I enjoy the music and the concept that Kentil has written "Four Nordic Songs based on the poetry John Donne. Music and poetry, two things i enjoy........
Joseph Haydn (1732-1809): Cuarteto Casals
Die sieben letzten Worte unseres Erlösers am Kreuze, Hob.XX:02
Mark Lanegan and Duke Garwood latest offering.
Eddie Lockjaw Davis Quartet - All of me
Nice straight ahead jazz. If you like Bennie Wallace, you might also like this one.
- Bass – Jesper Lundgaard
- Drums – Svend-Erik Nørregaard
- Piano – Kenny Drew
- Tenor Saxophone – Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis
Eagles - Hell Freezes Over (1994). CD rip, $2 charity shop purchase. I haven't heard this in a long time, its a good sounding recording. First couple of songs are studio, the remainder live. Worth a listen.

Me too, but going into the final 5 mins I imagine you're a happy bunny, Kevin.

Nice album and in my view the live version of Hotel California is the best version I've heard.
Having just finished listening to the BBC radio commentary of the Everton v WHU game, I thought I'd play this on behalf of West Ham fans.
Horace Andy - Living In The Flood.
Re-discovering my music, via the new streamer, with the chilled out Horace Andy, sometime voice of Massive Attack........ superb.
Nice Latin American feel to it...
Returning again to this fine album...

Indeed - sounds like everyone played well!
Like me, you'll be feeling good about football this weekend, Kevin 
Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen Quartet - Dancing on the tables
- Bass – Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen
- Drums – Billy Hart
- Guitar – John Scofield
- Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Alto Flute – Dave Liebman*
Playing on Vinyl on London Records 1966 - Always good hearing this album.
Chris Stapleton - From A Room: Vol 1
Because it is one of my favourite albums and it is simply stunning.
Nuff said.
Vinyl released 1998 - Lovely album. ????
1983 Japanese Denon-Nippon Columbia vinyl. An absolute monster of an album:
It's Power, Corruption & Lies by New Order, BTW...
