Now its the classic album, "John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman".
Now playing The Fixx - Reach the Beach.
Words that teach me
I will conquer
Space around me
Professor Longhair's "Longhair's Stomp" (masterful key strokes) and other songs. "Fess" was the acknowledged godfather of New Orleans bawdy house piano. He taught Fats Domino and Hurt "Piano" Smith, and deeply influenced Dr. John, Ezra Charles, and many others.
Currently listening to Uriah Heep ~ …Very ‘Eavy…Very ‘Umble.
A reissued album from Orchestre Massako (1970s band from Gabon), including this tune
The Jackson 5 - I Want You Back
Cal Tjader's vibraphone work on his "Soul Sauce" album.
Now it's another virtuouso vibraphonist, Mulatu Astatke, "ethiopique - Vol 4".
Mario Nascimbene - Una Bossa Per Voi (c.1970). Just my usual Sabbath eve relaxation routine.
Believe it or not, I was in a band from '07 to '09 that covered the hit from this album, Gypsy, two or three times. Surprisingly, someone was coherent enough to get a brief video clip of one of those times. That's me, on the Hammond organ, with hair much too long, muttonchops too far past the 70s, and too much THC in my bloodstream (well, enough that I barely remember this performance). Interestingly, I got married in this same backyard, some 10 years later. Life comes full circle, I guess!
Thanks @philobeddoe for posting this Heep album! Brought back a bunch of extremely faint memories for me all at once. ?
