Yesterday, listened to a few things... Stars Of The Lid and Their Refinement of the Decline Grateful Dead Go To Heaven - no offense to hardcore Dead fans (late getting in touch with my inner Deadhead so new to me) but this one just struck me as weird. Track 2 I swear has them sounding like Queen. A very "pop-ish" album overall. Good sound quality however. Eple Trio - In The Clearing, In The Cavern. Not sure what to think. Is it as shallow as it seems on first or second listen or is it some masterful exercise in minimalism? Norwegian jazz from their deep woods. KingKong: Jean Luc Ponty Plays the Music of Frank Zappa. I tend to like jazz violin. This was a low cost Blue Note CD from Amazon. Acman over on the Jazz Aficionados thread had mentioned it. A little underwhelming on first listen. Glad it was cheap. First track which you can find on YouTube might be the strongest. Right now have Rick Braun on thanks to Nutty's suggestion. Full Stride has segued into Body & Soul. Like the sound of his horn. I'd call it smooth jazz. Pretty mellow and "easy listening". |
Right now, Massive Attack's Mezzanine. I needed the groove. But @ghosthouse planted the Jean Luc Ponty seed so I'll queue up Tidal's Enigmatic Oceans next. And @nutty had to mention Steely Dan and I thought it's been a couple weeks since that awful voice and amazing music came through my speakers so maybe Fagen's The Nightfly will suffice. |
