I completely agree about the other two. I think you'll dig it! 16 minutes ago, mjazzg said: How are you enjoying the Hermeto? Oh man, I love it! There's something child-like about Hermeto's music -- a sort of openness or innocence -- but, at the same time, it's VERY sophisticated and poetic. I think he's in the same category as artists like Sun Ra and Rahsaan Roland Kirk. They do more than write music; they create musical worlds that are unlike anyone else's. Quote

I like that description and completely agree although I don't really know enough about Hermeto yet - this will be rectified . Like the others there's a seeming totality to the music, it's concepts, conception and realisation. as for "Hommage" - if I don't like it it will be the only Hill out of very nearly all of them that I own that I don't like, so I'm pretty confident. I think I may have heard it a few years back. Edited April 29, 2021 by mjazzg Quote

Pim Posted April 30, 2021 Report Posted April 30, 2021 I just can't get enough of River's live trio works from the '70's. So I've got this one, 'Streams' and the stuff on NoBuisness of course. Should I get Hues as well? Quote
