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:
I think the solo albums of the Pink Floyd gang are a bit mixed but this is good'un.
Trent Dabbs
(2013)
A Feast of Consequences
I've not played this for a couple of years, without a doubt it's Fish's finest solo album conjuring up the best of the Marillion vibe but with his own on it take and a few bagpipes sprinkled in here and there, a super album.
Shaving mirror version originally released 1961 - One to have. ????
Tommy Turrentine – Trumpet
Paul Chambers – Bass
Lex Humphries – Drums
Wynton Kelly – Piano
Yusef Lateef – Sax (Tenor), Flute
Curtis Fuller - Trombone
Chet Baker Trio featuring Philip Catherine - Chets Choice - Criss cross Jazz 1016
Another fine release from 1985 on this Dutch label this Trio of Chet's with Belgian guitarist Philip Catherine and bassist Jean-Louis Rassinfosse had previously played more than 40 gigs together as a trio for over four years and so where pretty tight by the time they recorded this LP in 1985.
Just listsening to side 2 track 2 a fantastic reworking of Cole Porter's Love For Sale something a bit Talking Heads about that bass line brilliant.
every now and then, I feel like hearing this -- so, playing now -- and enjoying the kick-arse percussion !!
enjoy/ken
better play this as well before it gets too late to play at the volume that I like -- you can tell where the kettle drums are being struck -- and also the echo that follows -- sounds frighteningly 'real' !!

I haven't played this lovely album in a while and since I'm quickly noting new things in it I don't think I can have played the albums since the CD555 arrived.

Paul Carrack - Soul Shadows.
Why, well after listening to the White album’s early version of Brother Malcolm I thought I’d give this a spin on Tidal, had it on cassette in the day.
Very 80’s production (pejoratively speaking), enjoying the memories but don’t think I’ll be rushing out to buy a physical copy.

I don’t need no 552, this is sounding lovely with my manky old 272.

A typical Roon journey, Julian Lennon appears on U2’s songs of experience-> so U2 -> Bono’s production credits -> Andrea Corr”s first solo album, Andrea Corr’s cover of John Lennon’s No 9 dream on this album.
It’s surprisingly good actually.
