After a (weeks) worth of listening...

John Abercrombie- Up and Coming

Took me a couple listens this week to really get into it. First pass or two was just ok, I heard pleasant relaxing music of a high order but it's over all relaxed vibe belies some very fine moments and chemistry between musicians that for me took repeated listens to sink in and I don't believe this record is done with me yet still. I don't think I listened to anything else for a couple days.

John Abercrombie's - "Timeless" is one of my ALL TIME favorite instrumental songs. I bought the vinyl way back in the mid-70's and I've listened to it regularly since. The album - Timeless features John Abercrombie, Jan Hammer and Jack De Johanette. It's a great album, but the title track is "Timeless"........

I'm going with Jeff Beck, "Loud Hailer". I'm really liking this post punk, industrial, funk, blues, grunge sound. There is nothing natural about the timbres but the "in the can" sound, effects and over driven sound is working for me. Being all new music is nice, too.

i really stuck with you point about the last few weeks. Whether I feel the same in a month is another matter only time will tell.

Not an LP but an EP, Belgrade - Fancy Couch

Last week it was The Wooden Birds - Two Matchsticks

I love Jeff Beck's "Loud Hailer". I've had it for about 6 months and it's still working for me. For me, it was the best rock record of 2016 and should have been nominated for a grammy. It's rock, it sounds great, it sound contemporary (especially considering JB is over 70 years old) and it was a political record in a political year. What more could anyone ask for? And I love the way it is recorded. I think I'll put it on now......
