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

Pink Floyd - The Division Bell - UnitiServe SSD

I’m becoming a Pink Floyd fan. It sounds very good.

Phil

(1969)

What a great decade (musically) this was to be waking up to as a teenager.

John Mayall - Talk about that.

Time for some blues!

Oh, go on then. 

  Eric Clapton - Sessions For Robert J.

  Eric gets back to basics with this largely "one take" tribute to Robert Johnson, with a stellar supporting cast in attendance.

  Much better, IMHO, than the previous one, "Me and Mr. Johnson.

A fairly recent discovery for me courtesy of Stevee_S. A very pleasing blend of early ‘70s influences, Led Zep, Jethro Tull, Traffic... Not just a pastiche, they have their own sound, although the influences shine through on this album, having seen Percy a week ago a few wails sounded familiar. Really enjoyable music.

Sounds interesting. who plays ? And What  ?

This is the first Wolf People album. They play like the early 70s we’re still in vogue (and that’s in a good way) and playing rock music shouldn’t forget the fact that a good tune helps a lot.

On a personal level they remind me of that not quite rock, not quite prog, not quite folk band The Horslips. The place for the neutral to start is the rather excellent second album, Fain.

Snetberger, Jormin, Baron - Titok

I always liked Sentberger when he played with Stockhausen (Nomad, Streams, Joyosa), and was a bit disappointed with his debut on ECM, when he played live and solo, but this is tasty as a great glass of wine.

I guess.

not a big wine fan, but you get the picture. Cheers !

A Chillout triple CD from the supermarket, might have been a fiver. There's a pizza, the heating's on, there's a cold San Mig. Uncomplicated pleasures.

Tonight I am looking to broaden my musical tastes starting with Chamber music...

Using Tidal.

A+3 16/44.1   Jimi Hendrix - Live At Monterrey

The long version

  Robert Plant - Carry Fire.

  It's become my favourite Percy album ................. until the next one, I suppose. 

Wait .............. did I say the one above was my favourite Percy album?

Nah, it's this one ............ or maybe it's whichever one happens to be playing at the time. 

   Robert Plant - Band of Joy.

   As usual, Percy's music is difficult to categorise as to genre ................. all I know is that he is responsible for some great choons. 

Now Playing.......

Bill Frisell (guitar) and Thomas Morgan (double bass) - Small Town

Streaming from NAS.......  The opening track "It Should Have Happened A Long Time Ago" is wonderful and just grabs your attention and the tracks that follow keeps that attention, a beautiful album.

Note from ECM Records here:

Small Town presents guitarist Bill Frisell and bassist Thomas Morgan in a program of duets, the poetic chemistry of their playing captured live at New York’s hallowed Village Vanguard. Frisell made his debut as a leader for ECM in 1983 with the similarly intimate In Line. The guitarist’s rich history with the label also includes multiple recordings by his iconic cooperative trio with Paul Motian and Joe Lovano, culminating in Time and Time Again in 2007. Small Town begins with a tribute to Motian in the form of a searching, 11-minute interpretation of the late drummer’s composition “It Should’ve Happened a Long Time Ago,” the duo’s counterpoint yielding a hushed power. Morgan has appeared on several ECM albums of late, as bassist of choice for Tomasz Stanko, Jakob Bro, David Virelles, Giovanni Guidi and Masabumi Kikuchi. Small Town sees Frisell and Morgan pay homage to jazz elder Lee Konitz with his “Subconscious Lee,” and there are several country/blues-accented Frisell originals, including the hauntingly melodic title track. The duo caps the set with an inimitable treatment of John Barry’s famous James Bond theme “Goldfinger.”

Quality. Paranoid now at 100 mph. Played this record to death back in the day.

Really?   .................. too much information.

Stevee_S recommended this Gilmour album to me a few days ago and this is my first play. I like what I'm hearing.
