Now playing.......

Snetberger Ferenc - Titok 

Ferenc Snétberger  (guitar), Anders Jormin  (double bass) and Joey Baron  (drums).

Streaming on NAS..........  continuing this Friday morning with the some relaxing music from Ferenc, Anders & Joey, a tremendous sounding trio creating some sweet music!

2005. Debut album from Norfolks finest.

Kenny 'Dope' Gonzales - Kenny Dope In the House Part 1&2 - UK vinyl Defected Records

Putting the 82/HC/250 through it's paces with this compilation of house music from 2003.

Tito Puente - Ran Kan Kan is a particular good listen.

David Bowie - Tonight.

I haven't given this LP a spin in a quite a while.  I still remember the day I bought it - the day of release in the US, I cycled into town and bought one of the first copies to be delivered to Pitchfork Records.  There was so much anticipation for this LP after the huge  success of Let's Dance.  I played a few tracks on my college radio show that evening.  Neighbourhood Threat, Don't Look Down, and Loving the Alien quickly became favourites, although I rather like Tumble and Twirl as well.  It's a great sounding LP - a Masterdisk cut. Put on side 2 and Neighbourhood Threat whacks you in the chest like bullets from a gun.  Looks like I was playing with LAST liquid around this time.  Doesn't seem to have done any of the LPs I treated any harm (I still have the box, applicator brushes and even some of the liquid left).  But then how would I know...?  Really enjoyed revisiting this album this evening.

Fine new album, less is sometimes more...

I particularly like the long edition of Wonderful Tonight on that album. Very emotional.

I haven't played any frapp for a while. This was and is one-hell-of an album.

For me it's 'Edge of Darkness' a great track and great old TV series.

About a week ago I said that Trailer Park was my favourite. I'm sorry about that. I mis-spoke.

Yes, Steve.  That's great one too.  Much see if I can find that TV series to watch again.

This album is just soooooo atmospheric.

Amy Wadge - Amy Wadge

The more I listen to this, the more I am liking it. Not one filler track on here. Lovely voice and good songs.

Just snapped up the CD from the river at a rather reasonable price but a bit of a wait for delivery.

Now playing.......

Ron Miles - I Am A Man

Ron Miles  (cornet), Brian Blade  (drums), Bill Frisell  (guitar),  Jason Moran  (piano) and Thomas Morgan  (bass).

Streaming on NAS........ I enjoy Ron Miles quite a bit and this group of musicians on this album are fantastic. I had this on my list as one of the my favorite top three jazz albums released in 2017.
