Black culture is truly magnificent.
Listening to Keith Jarrett the KĂśln Concert now.
Listening to the 1978 Sun Ra album Languidity. There are a lot of Sun Ra albums out there and some of them are very poor. A lot of them are âexperimentalâ to the point of taking the piss. This one is brilliant.
I thought you only reserved that one for special occasions or bank holiday weekends.
I had a very long day. I was in the humour for it.
Listening to A Kind of Blue on a calm Sunday morning is one of lifeâs little pleasures
When my last batch of kids were tiny i used to have that in the car stereo fairly often. I bullied/encouraged them into naming the individual musicians and what they played as each of them entered the fray on âFreddie Freeloaderâ. I remember us, the ex and the ex motherlaw all heading to belfast to a funeral. I put the cd on by accident and the two of them just started singing along, smiling and laughing away at each other, and nailing every twist and turn in the tune. It probably didnât even occur to me what a fantastic father i am
Fantastic stuff.
Itâs very close to the top of my list of favorite albums.
