Listening to disc 2 – December 22nd, 1965 2nd set. This is with the “second great quintet” (Shorter, Hancock, Williams, Carter, Davis). Phenomenal!

Ewen, if you're liking that one, try this ........... though I suspect you already will have. 

Toronzo Cannon - John The Conquer Root.

I've posted this one before, and it's full of modern-day Chicago blues ............ with a flying V too! 

Haven't heard it Dave but will make up error for that today. To be honest Dave I don't tend to listen to a lot of modern day blues artists with a few exceptions as I tend to prefer my blues old style

Pops Staples - Don't Lose This.

Fantastic laid back groove from Pops ............ just the thing for a relaxing sunny blue sky North Yorks. afternoon.

It's there on Tidal, so have a wee listen, you surely won't be disappointed.

Talking Heads - True Stories.

Probably their most underrated album, but for me, the quite unique Mr. Byrne never fails to entertain.

Hurray for the Riff Raff.  The Navigator.  Tidal.

I totally agree, Bert. This one is way more avant garde, and much more challenging listening. I'll play it later. Thanks for reminding me.

There's a lot of great jazz being listed on recent pages.

Glad you like it sjt. As I said it's a classic I paid a little more than £6.98 for my vinyl copy  so sounds like a bargain to me.
