Ahmad Jamal - At the Pershing

Inspired by Bert's post.

On 1970s vinyl. Someone posted something elsewhere which reminded me of this strange, disconcerting outfit...

It has moved too far to electronics for me...

A kind of a strange combination. The Chausson piece is quite accessible also for non classical people, the other piece is a bit more edgy. As always quite well executed by Isabelle

Some fine jamming and 2 brilliant covers from the Funkadelic guitar maestro.

Now moved to the last released album of Ella, sugar sweet....

Rachel Grimes - Book of Leaves

A super solo piano recording recommended to me by my friend Max. But only Massimo and I ever talk of it. I can't understand why it isn't more widely known. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that from what I know of people's preferences I reckon quite a few here would love it: Haim, Jeroen20, Bert, Seakayaker, Stevee, HH, Erich, Clive B. And probably a few others too.

Thanks Max.

Thanks for the tip Christopher_M. I will have a listen. I don't know the music of Rachel Grimes, but I see this album is available at bandcamp. Regards, Jeroen.

Just over a year old, who would have thought last May that this would be his final album?

Now Playing......

Rachel Grimes - Book Of Leaves for solo piano

Rachel Grimes - Book Of Leaves for solo piano

Going with the recommendation of CHRISTOPHER_M and taking the Book of Leaves for a spin. The only bummer is that the album was not available on Tidal and found it on Spotify and after two songs they went to a commercial.

Enjoying the album quite a bit and defiantly worth the time to give a listen.
