Yeah, but when we met, we were at a film festival presentation where a soundtrack I created consisted solely of sounds of television static, so...

Well, it isn't YouTube's doing. After all, they don't censor the cover to the latest release of XTC's "Skylarking".

 

Reminds me it's time I reread Lady Chatterley's Lover. Looks like XTC or their album producers did.

Starting right off with the trombone then voice of Jack Teagarden, a wonderful thing. Great sound on the RCA material on this set.

Burton Greene - Presenting... (CBS, 1970).

A really good album, which makes me want to dig further into Greene’s work. Very good Byard Lancaster performances too.

Now onto:

Idris  Ackermoor & The Pyramids - Shaman (Strut, 2020).

I think this is a solid late period record, without either the strengths or deficiencies of the Pyramids’ earlier records. None of the wildness in the playing. A bit of a pastiche of 70s styles through a 2020s lense at times, but overall, an enjoyable record. Great cover.

Yes, continuing to enjoy the fruits of a recent Steeplechase purchase from Tommy’s Jazz. Great playing from Charles Tyler on that one!

Right now, enjoying an excellent later-period Abbey Lincoln. Makes me wonder if Mosaic’s ever contemplated a collection of her Verve/Gitanes albums, most of which I’d assume are OOP by now. (They’re not all that hard to track down, though, which might be another factor that would make such a set less likely.)
