My (hometown) hockey team just won game 7 in sudden death on home turf. Epic ending to a really fun play off. The gold is finally home after 7 years Blasting CCR and AC/DC at the moment. Sup och svälj, trevliger helg - Skål!
Wow, great album! It's been a long time since I've listened to this one - Green River is typically my go-to Creedence album.
Radian: -on-dark silent off Really quite a remarkable recording What is it, you may ask? Have no idea except it is electric without words and the latest in multiple chapters from Martin Brandlmayr, Martin Siewert & Josh Norman Drums, guitars, bass, electronics all mixed and processed. Plus it *sounds* incredible On thrill jockey records out of Chicago
Gerry Hemingway Quintet: Waltzes, Two Steps and Other Matters of the Heart Probably the worst album title I know of for such a great (although unknown) album and band Hemingway on drums Michael Moore: alto saxophone and clarinets Wolter Wierbos: trombone Ernst Reijseger: cello Mark Dresser: bass Recorded at Berlin Jazz Festival on November 2, 1996 & in Stockholm on November 4, 1996 My favorite jazz band of the past 30 years. This is one of about 6-7 great albums from the late 80's through this one.
I cannot tell you what the track "Toombow" from the above Hemingway album means to me. There is a later (98 or so) quartet version but this one and the version I saw live by the later quartet is the closest I've heard any modern jazz ensemble come to Ellington. That memory was brutal when I lost music circa 2003. When I got music and life back, I think of that memory when I play this song.

A home run with this one. Love it.....never to be beaten by pretenders. And there are hundreds of pretenders. always will be....
Black Sabbath is as close to Heavy Metal as I can bare to get I've absolutely loved this album since I listened to it for the first time some 25 years ago (I've just realized I'm going old!). It's powerful, but also delicate and sophisticated, the arrangements are very precise and well-developed. Perfect! (And regarding lyrics it's maybe the best Sabbath album).

Fred Frith Trio with Jason Hoopes & Jordan Glenn Recorded March 2016 on Intakt records Guitar-bass-drums like has never been heard before Stunning. abstract. Groove. No Groove. Intense. All improvised. Young dudes inspiring the old guitar god.
