Marvin Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Doves - Compulsion. I think the bass playing by Jimi Goodwin on this is just brilliant 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might not sound particularly momentous to you, but for a man weaned on glam, woken up by punk, shaken by ska and only lately soothed by soul, it is a huge step. I accidentally stumbled into the first of two Miles Davis shows at the Plugged Nickel in Chicago just before Xmas '65. I was looking for a blues show, but saw a big line of peeps, and went for it. What a way to get introduced to jazz! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxnard Montalvo Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Music For An Infinite Universe by 65daysofstatic. An epic, emotional album that I never wait very long to listen to again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off to play Big Fun now 🙂 Edited September 22, 2020 by Richard R Rude filter will not let me include the plural of the noun for a female dog in the album title, hence the spa ces. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though if older BC members have tales of persuading the lasses, to the strains of "My Old Man's a Dustman" on the Dansette, then I stand corrected. And "Diggin' up my Potatoes" was quite raunchy for the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off to play Big Fun now 🙂 I've purchased SO many copies of Kind Of Blue over the years. I hope you bought the Columbia/Legacy CK64935 release. It's easily the best sounding of the bunch, and the first (OK, second, but the Mastersound version doesn't have the alternate take of Flamenco Sketches) to correct the speed issue on 3 songs. The tape deck used in their recording was 5% off speed, and those songs were sharp enough to sound in the wrong key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BreadBin Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Anna Meredith. 20 minutes of sheer brilliance. Exquisite tension, uplifting joy - put a smile on my face, tears in my eyes and hope in my heart. I could go on, but the video has it all and more. This is also fabulous.

I have to admit that my reaction to Nautilus (the starting piece) was the same as the drummer in the corner initially adopted. I enjoyed the others though. Maybe it's just too early in the morning for slow-build tracks 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
