What are we listening to right now..

I started listening to this on my vinyl setup. I had an old sealed copy that I decided to open and give it a try. What a great album!

It’s such a well produced two disc set, I could imagine a modern version of this being really interesting.

It’s a “how to assess speakers” album focused on a mix of narrative explanation and what to listen to. Imagine a one hour TED talk lecture…. The second half actually talks about some of the decisions that happen in the recording session, etc.

Searching on YouTube, I found this recording

Mirakle by Derek Bailey, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, and Calvin Weston​

I haven't listened for a while. That's a mistake. Like with Albert Ayler, listening to it restores some courage and faith in humanity. Youtube link.

A great group of three songs on my last trip out in the car. At random streamed from my iPhone 15Pro: Move on Fast - Silversun Pickups; Dancing in the Streets - David Bowie; Snow in San Anselmo - Van Morrison. As I've said elsewhere - for me - it's about the music. Turned the volume up and it put a smile on my face!
