Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011
With 2012 almost upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

From the Mercury Living Presence Collector's Edition. It is nice to have this collaboration of Sir John Gielgud ready the english translations of the poems of Aloysius Bertrand (which form the basis of Ravels ideas around Gaspard de la Nuit. Excellent performance by Gina Bachauer and of course, a wonderful recorded sound (recorded June 1964, Stravinsky February 1963).

kk, I don't know if you saw our posts, but me and reubs were on about that cat in this thread only a week or so back.
If they like his album, I expect your ears will enjoy this half hour FlyLo mix of Thundercat from the Brainfeeder site: Shenanigans pt.1 that I downloaded (I think you still can?) around when his album dropped. I still havent heard ...Apocalypse though.
Julia Stone "Lets Forget All The Things That We Say" ep

Julia Stone "The Memory Machine"
some black & purple vinyl...
The Field Music songs sound better 'live'. I'd like to see Interpol and compare as well (their YouTube footage is great, like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HslRPpOeIAM&feature=related).

Thanks Adrian,
Just ordered Vol 1&2 from DGM. Taking a chance here, but as the source material is known, the jazz feel should be interesting. I also wanted some of Ian Wallace's last work, a wonderful drummer sadly missed.
Santana "Beyond Appearances"
