‘1, 2, Freddie’s coming for you’. But as Mr Hubbard is actually Goin’ Up there’s no need to worry @bluenoterecords.bsky.social
RIP Maha, this is Orkos from 1979, her only album which was reissued by Habibi Funk in 2022
Oslo based Lyskestrekk Records comes correct as always; for a brilliant collection of raw, minimalist instrumental funk grooves, look no further than Sløy Gange’s new LP. Think a sleazy Greg Foat/Surprise Chef/El Michels Affair etc.
No bad dreams last night (that I can think of at least). A few weird ones, however, though none on vinyl. Anyway, here’s Nightmares On Wax vs. Adrian Sherwood
Whilst we’re on the topic of having bad dreams on record
Holidays are over and I’m back in the record playing business - hello again :) So I gave up cigarettes many moons ago, but this here Nightmares On Wax joint remains a delight
Enjoying a rare evening in my place of birth city tonight
Keeping it Michel Petrucciani today, here’s the French piano ace accompanied by Jim Hall and Wayne Shorter captured at Montreux. A masterful example on how to swing with no drummer/bassist needed @bluenoterecords.bsky.social
We’re getting organ-ised for our holidays with Big John Patton’s Got A Good Thing Goin’ @bluenoterecords.bsky.social - a ‘66 soul jazz session of epic dimensions with Grant Green, Hugh Walker and Richard Landrum on guitar, drums and conga respectively
In need of a sonic Sunday pickup? Perhaps the Eclectic Corner can do something about it, the July show is now available to stream ad libitum: www.mixcloud.com/MartinTHC/ec...
Another Curtis Amy for Pacific Jazz through @bluenoterecords.bsky.social. A brilliant album this: Katanga!
Going to chill with a couple of Curtis Amy dates for Pacific Jazz courtesy of @bluenoterecords.bsky.social. First one’s Tippin’ On Through
11yo went bug hunting in the garden and came back with this…errr… beauty 👀
Feeling empty now that the July edition of the Eclectic Corner @madwaspradiomwr.bsky.social is behind us? Despair not, the August show is in the oven, rusty mixing and all! 🥳
Picking up where we left it yesterday @bluenoterecords.bsky.social Hank Mobley serenading our breakfast porridge
One more from the @bluenoterecords.bsky.social goodie bag, here’s Bobby Hutcherson with an immense amount of sidekick talent on Components
Kenny Burrell @bluenoterecords.bsky.social is never not a good idea to pop on the decks. This is Blue Lights, as effortlessly cool as - well - it’s Kenny B init?
Tara Clerkin Trio’s wonderful new LP Somewhere Good, putting smiles in our ears this afternoon
In the zone for some summer jams? Why not tune in to the Eclectic Corner @madwaspradiomwr.bsky.social tonight at 7pm CET? Lend me your ears and I’ll pour this lot into them…
It’s (almost) that time again friends, the Eclectic Corner goes out tomorrow @madwaspradiomwr.bsky.social at 7pm CET in all its July glory. Look what you can potentially treat yourself to 👇👇
Greg Foat took a crew up the Alps at Leysin for presumably 6 days and recorded this airy album
Btw if you’re a fellow sucker for digi-dub, this here 7” is a perfect peach
Has anyone ever actually slept on a record? My neck/back would be in tatters
This Shackleton 2x12” was sat next to the T++ record on the shelves so how could I not give that a spin as well? Includes a remix by the latter
