jeffcrom Posted February 22, 2018 Report Posted February 22, 2018 A bit of variety at the JC household this evening - getting progressively more raucous, apparently. Gil Evans featuring John McLaughlin - We Remember Jimi (Dark Magus). An "unofficial release," as Discogs says. Johnny Jenkins - Ton-Ton Macoute (Capricorn). The Macon, Georgia bluesman's first album, with members of the Allman Brothers Band and other Southern studio guys. Killer Mike - R.A.P. Music (Williams Street). We love Killer Mike in Atlanta. Our tunnel-drilling machine is named Driller Mike. (This is not a joke - it really is.) I'll say that I like some of the tracks better than others, but the best tracks have a political awareness and/or spiritual dimension far beyond gangster or bragging/lifestyle hip-hop. Quote
