While I have yet to hear Floating Point I do have the vinyl coming in:
“Artemis” Blue Note cd
You can tell that Ms Rosnes is in this group from the first seconds. Good stuff so far!
Listening to it at the moment. The 1st track shows a lot of promise.
Yes, a very good release. And that’s a great way to record a jazz ensemble.
A nice listen on Tidal Masters, especially their deconstruction of Lee Morgan’s The Sidewinder.
Sun Ra once again challenging the staid notions of jazz in this my preferred 1966 ESP vinyl release.
When someone asks me about jazz and where to start, tragically seldom, I typically respond, “If you want to learn jazz, Kind of Blue, if you want to love jazz, Go”.
This came to mind which can be a bit overwhelming, but in a way I enjoy:
Mention of Dexter Gordon’s Go! Got me to disc one of this comprehensive set.
Bob Belden, producer “Miles in Espanol: New Sketches of Spain”
I haven’t spun this 2 cd set in a while. Very intriguing music.
