What are you listening to right now #53

[Joe Hutch]

The Smiths: Strangeways Here We Come.

(It was going to be The World Won't Listen, but that has developed a major warp, rendering it unplayable).

 

[Joe Hutch]

The Velvet Underground: VU.

Contains what is probably the best version of 'Ocean'.

Charles Mingus - Mingus Dynasty, still fresh after nearly 50 years

 

[JD68]

John Coltrane - Blue Train

 

[Natara]

[alan967tiger]

Mark Knopfler - Shangri-La
2004 SACD

 

[herb]

Charles Mingus - Mingus Ah Um another Mingus classic

Mike Westbrook - Glad Day, settings of William Blake. Jazz with a 1977 Thames TV documentary history marking the 150th anniversary of Blake's death - 'Displaying the Infinite which was Hid'. Thought provoking stuff,

 

[Natara]

LCD Soundsystem - American Dream

After a few plays it's really growing on me (I did have absurdly high hopes for it though).

 

[alan967tiger]

Journey - Escape
2000 SACD

Michael Rother - Live at the Brudenell Club, Leeds

Michael Rother - Live at the Brudenell Club, Leeds

Eh? Legit, or bootleg.
Either way, colour me interested - he was fantastic when we saw him at Under The Bridge last year.

 

[matt j]

Aldous Harding - Party.

Easily one of the best of the year.

 

[Seeker_UK]

Eh? Legit, or bootleg.

Good question. This is a recording from a 'friend of a friend' so, at best, a 'preview' of a forthcoming release but possibly will remain a boot.

Ween - Shinola vol 1
