Stan Getz - Focus

Read a review of this recently so decided to buy a copy (CD).

Really, really worth a listen: Stan Getz improvising with a string section.

The Falcon and the Snowman – OST

Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, and David Bowie. Can't miss.

I finally got this a few months ago. It really is a masterpiece of its time. I know there are fans here of this period and style of post bop which was often on Bluenote. Highly recommended

Streamed from TIDAL. I think this might have been released today.

John Lindberg led a series of stellar albums on Black Saint in the late 90s. I can’t get Catbird Sings to play on my much neglected old CD player but it is great too.

edited to add intensely swinging. Ed Thigpen

Robert Plant - Fate of Nations RSD 2019 vinyl. Having to crank the volume on this one. Might have been better as a 3 sided double but music is great - Richard Thompson guesting, 29 Palms and a great If I was a Carpenter cover.

Grateful Dead - Grateful Dead (Skull & Roses). 50th Anniversary, CD2 Live At Fillmore West 1971. CD rip.

Mine arrived today too. CD1 seems to me to bring out Weir's guitar more, which is obviously A Good Thing. Is there a better song anywhere than "Wharf Rat"?

You know our love not fade away...

Edit: BTW Mike have you listened to Kreutzmann's 75th birthday performances with Billy Strings? Sbd FLACs are available

Rose City Band: Earth Trip. Arrived today and very enjoyable on first listen.

On first listen today it's not quite up with "Summerlong" for me, but I'll give it time. There doesn't seem to be so much of Ripley J's layers-of-delay-guitar thing.

 

[Woodface]

Shelby Lynne - ‘Just a little lovin’, incredible vocal performance

 

[Featsdont]

Richard and a Linda Thompson - Shoot out the Lights 1982 vinyl. Superb break up album - not sure if they knew that it was that when they recorded it. The songs and playing are first class. Dave Mattacks on drums must be the epitome of less is more!

Gwenifer Raymond double header - if you likeJohn Fahey / Jack Rose, this is a no-brainer!

I thought the name rang a bell... thanks - will investigate!

Rory Gallagher - Irish Tour ‘74 - cd rip. - as a pub band rhythm guitar player I am in awe of Rory’s abilities - and deeply regret missing his visits to Scotland when I was at school/ uni…. Gone too young…

I’ll give the Kreutzmann shows a listen, thanks
