    So long since I played that. I bought the CD because of Devil's Haircut.

    I like that one too. Some good stuff on the album, but not all my cup of tea but never less than interesting. :-)

    TBH, I find all of Beck's output (that I've heard) at bit patchy.

    There's a new Charlatans LP out...



    It started here...

    ... and a personal favourite.

    Leonard Cohen - So you want it darker 

    I listen to this album a lot. But this morning I'm totally struck by its beauty and odd perfection. Throughout Cohen's voice is ridiculously fronted. That, with the lyrics (poems) which are as wise, honest, and full of allusion as always, makes it feel very intimate and personal. But behind that there is this consummate, subtle and magical arrangement which, with perfect timing flutters forward with humour, nostalgia, irony, sadness, regret, acceptance.... It feels like a whole world. A whole life. It's definitely, for me at least, eyes-shut music. Or at least teary-blurry-vision-music, as the case is this morning.

    Let's give all this poetic stuff a sharp dig in the ribs, so we can make way for:

    Big Satan - Big Satan :-)

    The album isn't on YT, so here's some brilliant live stuff from the same band

    at what point do they finish tuning up? ;;)

    I find this one ("Mexico") quite endearing / smilesome...

    And, not only to annoy Ben...

    Jaco Pastorius, Pat Metheny, Paul Bley, Bruce Ditmas - (either) Jaco or Pastorius Metheny Ditmas Bley (depending if you have the latest reissue or the original on Artists House).



    Apparently the first album Jaco appeared on (it was really a Paul Bley session, and I think that's him on the cover, above), and very early on in Metheny's career, too.

    And, picking up from yesterday, I have Tim Berne in another alto/guitar/drums line-up. This time with David Torn and Ches Smith.



    Far out, man! :-D

    It's rapidly becoming obvious it's Tim Berne week, so sod it, her's some more!



    Please note the collection of usual suspects, plus Craig Taborn on keyboards (actually a usual suspect, who hadn't yet come up in this series of posts).
  • uglymusicuglymusic
    Just to show I don't know what I'm talking about, there's no Tim Berne in this next live footage!

    David Torn and Living Colour's drummer, Will Cohoun play at the Knitting Factory as LoVeBuBBLE.



    This is moving away from the avant jazz vibe into somewhere more rocky.

    The former yes. Latter no. Always grateful for pointers. Will get my running shoes on now....

    Cool. They were both recorded at the same gig(s) and are sometimes packaged together.

    Read a great comment about him earlier: Tom Waits attracts Truth like a corpse attracts flies.

    LOL! I'm sure the great man would come up with something far better ;-)

    Charley Patton "Pea Vine Blues" I absolutely love this stuff. It sounds so special, and un-bullshity to me.

    I like the Replacements track. There's a dollop of early Cure in there (was it called A Forest?), I think.

    Didn't strike me before but yes, definite likeness to "A Forest".

    Another favourite by them (almost a slowed down version of A Forest?! )
