He'd never mentioned seeing McGregor before but immediately identified him by name. That's special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) Pre-ordered from Dusty Groove today, two albums due to be available at the end of January 2024: Mal Waldron-Terumasa Hino - Reminiscent Suite (Victor JP) BBE reissue Irakere - Grupo Irakere (Areito/EGREM) Mr. Bongo reissue Both albums are long-time favorites, but I've only heard them as MP3 downloads. The collector in me loves that I will finally have these albums as tangible objects, and the music lover in me can't wait to hear them in higher fidelity!

Obviously this is a matter of personal taste .... but thankfully these cover photos separate themselves from ECM .... and as said the topic "photographies depicting boredom" an interesting topic (to me) ....

rostasi Posted December 16, 2023 Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 Those Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou titles are quite nice. Around 20 years ago, I picked up some of her work and would include it in discs I'd made for restaurants - some Ethiopian - but didn't think much more about her until her music started showing up last year on Wal-Mart commercials. Stunned, I started listening again - and then she died earlier this year at nearly 100, so the nun and her piano became a pretty regular thing around these parts.

I don't know how much of that happens - or if there was any compensation, but there it was in at least one of their ads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted December 22, 2023 Report Share Posted December 22, 2023 I'm taking some time off from work for the holidays. So this morning, I drove up to McKay's, a giant music & book store in Chattanooga. I spent the better part of the day there. I took my time, looked through a lot of stuff, including their bargain bins. Here's what I brought home: 22 CDs and 21 LPs. And the total -- out the door -- was less than $100. All of the classical LPs were one dollar each (!) -- including those six Philips LPs, all of which are in pristine condition. The Genesis Wind & Wuthering LP is a Charisma label UK import, also in NM- condition. W & W is one of my desert-island albums. I've already got the ATCO US vinyl and the CD. But I couldn't resist; it was the most expensive title of the day at $10.99. Reputedly, the Charisma is the best sounding version. We'll see. A nice Christmas haul, eh?

You're right. It's fantastic. I love this band with Stenson, Jormin, and Hart. I have All My Relations and The Call. But I'd never gotten 'round to Canto. Glad I finally got it.
