If you can ever catch it on PBS, check out the documentary, Standing In The Shadow Of Motown, about their studio band, The Funk Brothers. Great story about some great, influential musicians. I saw it available on Youtube, but they wanted $3.99 ti watch it. Buttheads.

Shall try it though I am not into avant garde jazz much. But who knows! There was a time when I didn’t like jazz…

Qobuz. 16/44.1. Inspired by a forum post, Every Noise at Once , I have been listening to an album of Matthew Locke, since his music was the example for ‘English Baroque’. Beautiful, gentle music in an early Savall interpretation.

Combing thru the archives while test-driving the SPP:


The O’Kanes “Tired of the Runnin’” (glorious traditional Nashville sound)


Pete Townshend and Ronnie Lane - one of the best collaborations ever.

Rough Mix is one of those instant love records for me. I need a new digital copy of it. Haven’t listened in years.

Almost inevitably, I could not find this on Qobuz. However I had not heard of Vanhal, so I chose another album which was available. Light, pleasant. and curiously uninvolving. I should stick to baroque :frowning:
