What are you listening to?

[castalla]

This version has an authentic kick to it provided by Cyndi Lauper

An organ recital on a major label is quite rare nowadays.
A bit crossover and transcriptions from well known pieces. I think not only for @Maurizio worth a try.

@Achim1811 Morning mate
I'm glad you thought of me. Of course I have had this album in my library for a long time.

 

[Maurizio]

Fresu (or his publisher) released a Christmas EP yesterday and it reminded me to give some of his former albums a spin again.
This is "Chamber Jazz" I like, for though a (perfectly played) Bandoneon is on board and this is in my ears normally one of the four instruments of the Apocalypse
Stuff to float slowly into another stormy and rainy day at the shore. Take care, @ all

Fresu is one of my favourites. Have you ever tried Roberto Roberto Olzer and Enrico Pieranunzi? Both are pianists

 

[Maurizio]

This morning I feel generous. Let's start with this. If @Achim1811 like bandoneon this album should be for him.


I continue with an album by Michele di Toro with Hans Mathisen as Norwegian guitarist. Halfway between Metheny and Abercrombie?

Finally an Australian Jazz Band. It's their first album and I think they're promising.

Well, there would be that too. A really weird album, a bit in the ECM style. I haven't decided yet whether I like it or not. Maybe some other daredevil can try it.

Happy weekend to all

 

[Maurizio]

Must be great stuff for your B&Ws...

Thanks mate. A very good suggestion. I haven't listened to this album in a while. I'll do it today so as well as enjoying the music I'll also do a test, as you say, of my new B&Ws.

 

[Maurizio]

I like this Torque album also for this beautiful white 911....

911!!! A dream!!

[canard]

really also not so pop ( truly not ,-) )..but if you like music from this region (even though she has been living in France for a while)
;-)

One of my best loved bands back in the Beat era. The harmony of the vocals was state of the art that days.
This compilation seems to be made for Germany only. My CD copy nevertheless was made in The Netherlands

I got the vinyl version of their "20 Golden Hits" as a Christmas gift way back in 1978...

Edit: even remember the oft quoted misheard lyric "He's well fed on Mackeson..."

 

[Maurizio]

Hi @Achim1811
I'm listening to the album Luna now. The B&W rendering is spectacular. The sub bass has a great impact. The windows shook.

 

[castalla]

Something like these?

And no accordion was involved...

 

[Brantome]

Accordion on the cover, but not necessarily on this track. Memories of the Glasgow Apollo c.1976/77, glitterball spinning…

 

[Brown Sound]

Sorry, for the absence, been a bit busy, eh? Just a Roon Queen mix playlist tonight.

 

[Maurizio]

Let's see what I can suggest this morning. So, an album of Anna Lapwood's Chapel Choir. May be it's not for all, but some open-minded brave might try it. It's also a good test for speakers.

Now something easier. A good album of vocal Jazz. @Wiimer could like the voice of this lady. She may be a little overdressed, but the voice is worth it.

And now let's go to @Achim1811 . Apparently he's doing the soundtrack for the movie "Back To The Past". I would like to collaborate as a co-author, therefore

And


I think it's enough for this morning. Happy Sunday to all.
