What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.VIII)
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:

1980s Vinyl.
This is a great Ry Cooder album. Featuring some great musicians including Jim Keltner on drums, Tim Drummond on bass. John Hiatt also contributes. All numbers are short rocky numbers with catchy tunes. From the breakneck old soul classic, "6345789", and ‘Down in the boon docks’ right through to the slow sexy burn of the final "Never make your move too soon" and my favourite track "Every woman I know, Crazy 'bout an automobile, and here I am standing with nothin' but rubber heels. This album is brilliant.

An 'oldie', but came out on top of a recent blind cd comparison and I do like it ....
First spin - Lugansky's new recording of the Rach sonatas.
Cheers,

Unfortunately it isn't grabbing me by the short and curlies. An OK album. Great funky lead off track.
Voice is gone
Produced by Justin Townes Earle and he has done a marvellous job.
Austin indie band produced by Spoon's drummer.
Due out on MP3 on the 12th
Truly awful.
Doug,
Thanks for posting this one a while ago. I knew the impromptus as played by Rubinstein and Ashkenazy, but Perahia's quicksilver interpretation is quite something else.
Cheers,

Great voice but to me the album is over produced.
Produced by Justin Townes Earle and he has done a marvellous job.
Thanks ewemon, good to hear. This album has been on my wish list for sometime.

Obviously she has lost a bit of sparkle in her voice due to her age but I think it is a good disc.

A very early Folia ostinato; M.F.'s voice is miraculous.
Naims love to deliver it; volume up as possible.

this is getting a lot of needle time in the lutyens household at the moment. Well worth checking out.
