Glad to hear you say so Joe. I was expecting it today but was out of luck. Tomorrow should see it arrive. Even more looking forward to it now. Cheers, Paul.

Funny I get exactly the same feeling with Leonard Cohen plus I also want to down a bottle of paracetamel as well as anything else I can get my hands on and that's before the end of the first song.


Lol. Must agree there. A friend and I have to have a music truce when visiting each other. He doesn't play Cohen and I don't have him shot. Winker

This.

'San jose' is oddly compelling.

A pleasant bit of relaxation, Jason Rebello, A Clearer View, on vinyl. (No image on Amazon, oddly).

Wow Steve. Not many people with that album in their collection. That was pretty much one of the first jazz albums I bought and fell in love with. Saw him many times live in those days - then he went off to become a monk for a while. Now he plays for Sting and Jeff Beck. Going to join you.

Popped into HMV today and they had some ECM New Series cds so I thought I would try half a dozen. First up...

It was listening to the original Jazz FM back when it came out that put me on to him.

In a similar mood Vernell Brown Jr, A Total Eclipse. Which Amazon don't have either...How odd.

I used to listen to JazzFM at the beginning but it did not take long for it to go all muzak. Still thanks for reminding me to play this - it has been a while.

I remember attending a 10000 Maniacs gig when I was at Uni. One of the guys I was with swore blind that Natalie was eyeing him for the duration of the set. As obvious a case of wishful thinking as I've ever come across.

(Obviously, she was looking at me the whole time)
