Best track you heard all week

[NIS]

Video of our 20 month old granddaughter pounding on her toy xylophone and singing the alphabet song. Limited audience oviously but good stuff for me.

[Neal Pomea]

La Misère à Mon Beau-Pére (My Father-in-law's Misery). Bingo!

(Sidney Brown & His French Accordion, on the 10th anniversary of my Cajun French music website!)

I've not herad Bill Frisell for years but I came across this on NPR. He can still take my breath away.

I was listening to Stanley Turrentine / Milt Jackson's album Cherry this morning, and absolutely loved this version of I Remember You

Beautiful! There aren't as many covers as you'd expect of this - one of Bird's favorite ballads.

Title track from Foxes Fox. Had this since it came out. Suddenly warmed to it.

I heard being played during an interview with Elizabeth Frazer and was knocked-out by it:

Massive Attack - Teardrop

[Steve Reynolds]

love the first Foxes Fox CD - will get the new one soon.

maybe my most played Evan Parker recording over the last few years.

Louis Moholo-Moholo is superb on that recording

Wonderful group...the first time I ever played with Louis was when Evan asked me to sub in this group when Steve Beresford couldn't make a show...and in fact, I'd never even met him until that point, although I have the honour of doing a few things with him now...but that was some kind of baptism of fire!

[Big Al]

Willie Bobo's "Blind Man/Shotgun" from UNO, DOS, TRES. I posted this on the "What Are You Listening To Now" thread a couple days ago and I'm STILL listening to it!

[Simon8]

Paul Bley, Mark Levinson & Barry Altschul bowlin' through "Ramblin'" !

MC 900 FT Jesus: Bill's Dream. Very jazzy and cool.

[Matthew]

Dave Brubeck Quartet's version of "Like Someone in Love." Mostly for Desmond...

[B. Goren.]

Abbey Lincoln sings "Windmills Of Your Mind".

[Valeria Victrix]

Nine Inch Nails: Closer.

One of the greatest grooves ever! If your toes don't tap wildly and your shoulders start moving involuntarily, the doctor will recommend a Jaegerbomber and a turn or two on the dancefloor!

[Steve Reynolds]

Can's 'Waiting for the Streetcar' from the recently issued Lost Tapes

Malcolm Moooney at his insane best ranting for almost the whole 10 minutes with a groove that is right up there with Can's best.

[John Tapscott]

Actually, one heard and seen - from the Jazz Icons 4 Bonus DVD

Blue Lou - Coleman Hawkins, Benny Carter,Teddy Wilson, Bob Cranshaw, Louis Bellson - London, England, Dec. 1, 1966. Very good late-period Hawkins.

[StarThrower]

Steve Coleman's Sweet Dawn, featuring Tommy Flanagan. On the Rhythm In Mind CD.

[A Lark Ascending]

Utterly bewitched today listening to Christy Moore singing 'Shine on You Crazy Diamond'. A grand, technicolour piece if ever there was one, stripped down to a simple, gentle, poignant ballad. I love the original but Christy makes the song his own by simply not even trying to approach the scale of the original.

Comes from here:

A Waltz For Fran.

[BillF]

Lee Morgan's "Ceora" from the above album, largely on the strength of Eric Alexander's superb solo against a big band background. Have always felt that the absence of an own name big band album (AFAIK) from Eric's massive discography is a regrettable omission.

[JohnS]

David Murray's Trio recorded at The Hague in 1988 playing Mr PC, particularly notable for Sunny Murray swinging hard using brushes alone

[A Lark Ascending]

Two this week I heard on early morning radio that stopped me in my tracks. Don't know the performers but they were versions of:

• 
  
  
• Bach: Violin Concerto No 1 - slow movement
  
• Mozart: Serenade 10 - 'Gran Partita' - slow movement
  

I've know both for yonks but somehow they hit extra hard this week.
