So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[Pim]

finally got me started with the rest of the series and with the first tunes I immediately knew I did right to buy the whole series. This is classic Tapscott in the Arkestras finest hour. Man this guy was something special for sure and how I would have loved to have seen him perform right there at that church. It must have been an experience. I could also confirm that the sound quality is miles better than the first release. 
 

What frightened me most was the size of the whole project. How could someone digest ? I now decided I just consume it in small portions: one of these masterpieces a week. Fortunately there is enough variety composition wise. Way to go Nimbus and way to go Matt!

Bring her with you!

That’s a great idea. I don’t get her to see Parker though. The idea of it makes me laugh. And to tell her upfront that Evan Parker is one of the more accessible folks in jazz: something like Norah Jones without vocals. And than the look on her face when he starts to play… that would be priceless 😂

Listening to some mega groovin´ stuff in the small hours (Not a Tour de Force from me. Just my usual time of the day, where my mind is really bright.......musician´s live 😄.

 

I listen with headphones because it has to be reallly LOUD, I mean like it is played live, and I am "in heaven". 

This night I didn´t listen to my usual preferences of insider´s music, I just wanted to enjoy a really really really happy day !

All albums here is with exactly the same personnel I saw them live back then, decades ago, possibly that´s the reason why I picked them up.......

Miles Davis “Miles Smiles” Sony Blu-Spec CD2

Enjoying the warm morning while it lasts. Some of the sloping sheet of ice that is my driveway has melted, that’ great I think.

Starting off with this classic in great sound. I almost listened to the Bootleg Series volume that features these tape reels, but decided to just hear the familiar glory of the released material only.
