Evan Parker and Barry Guy – Incision

This morning marks the day that my kids finally snapped. My 3 year old daughter told me that “this music is just talking gobbledegook”. 

The age-old problem...Free jazz, improv, avant-garde classical, etc. generally can't be listened to in the presence of others. 😶

Right now:

Pierre Sprey recorded jazz the ultimate way.

Pierre Sprey was a whack-a-doodle but this is a great CD.

Until now they had just quietly accepted that their lot in life was to suffer. Children do not know any different.

I got my own back by playing Charles Gayle at them all through breakfast. That was fine, apparently. Maybe it was just the lack of discernable musical idiom that threw my daughter.

Sometimes late at night I like sounds like this one. 

Hipsippy Blues, Close Your Eyes, and all that stuff. 

The Blakey Sound for me is the sound when I just want to get some of that pure energy, when I am to tired or to lazy to figure things out.....

And Blakey was one of my first musical heroes......

I started the morning off with this, "Duke at the Roadhouse--Roger Kellaway and Eddie Daniels Live in Santa Fe, NM"

 

 

Yesterday when I was playing this my wife Lucinda said "I like that classical music you were playing." And I though yeah, it was jazz. . . no it was classical." It's both and it's fantastic! Eddie on reeds, Roger on piano and James Holland on cello. Amazing musicianship and interpretation and recording.

 

After "Duke at the Roadhouse" I am spinning this one:

 

Wolfgang Muthspiel "Where The River Goes" ECM cd

[Referentzhunter]

Gato Barbieri “Latino America” Impulse 2 cd set, disc 1

[Peter Friedman]
