A Lark Ascending Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Posted March 15, 2009 Two Bach cantatas on different discs - No. 60 and No. 82. I've been waiting to hear the chorale from number 60 for nearly 30 years, from when I first became besotted with the Berg Violin Concerto. The theme from the chorale is quoted most poignantly. But I've never located a version of the Bach until now. Quote

Now playing: Oliver Nelson, Fantabulous Just realised I have Fantabulous in the Mosaic box, so have cut it and moved to Sonny Stitt, New York Jazz. Far too much on Spotify to listen to stuff that's already in my collection! I guess I'm using it to expand my knowledge of the music! Quote
Niko Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 Earl Anderza - Outa Sight three hours in the uk and i got spotify working... detailed comparison with deezer will follow in the next few days... Welcome to the UK, Nico! Access to Spotify is one of the few things it's got to recommend it these days! Still, I guess you'll get a good deal for your euros! love spotify! big advantage compared with deezer is that there is so much of the emi catalogue (also some enjas)... also much better (though still not sufficient) discographical information... but deezer has more universal stuff, jazz in paris, mps, ojcs (much more gene ammons iirc) but luckily for this week i can have both... having a great time here i hope, already listened to hank mobley's a slice of the top, had some great indian food and took a walk one a spooky looking cemetery at night...

I'm in Kenilworth... can't really imagine living in so small a place but for the moment it's more than charming... Quote

I know every stone! Warwick (just up the road) is more complete and imposing but heavily commercialised and very expensive. If you stick 'Kenilworth March' into Spotify you'll get an extract from Sir Arthur Bliss' 'Kenilworth Suite' for brass band. Says it's by Harry Mortimer but that's the conductor. Quote

I must listen to that Joe Albany album. I saw him playing an upright piano in a room over a Manchester pub in the 1970s during a tour organised by Tony Williams of Spotlite records. Joe looked in pretty bad shape and I read in the reference books of his experience of addiction and prison. Quote

BillF Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 Now that I've dealt with the first wave of finds on Spotify, I decided to follow Nico's example and register with Deezer as well. First find: Archie Shepp's Four for Trane, which is neither in my record collection nor on Spotify. If Bev follows suit, he might wish to change the title of this thread again, as I'll be reporting my Deezer listening here, as Nico is already doing. Quote
