WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

[David Houck]

And this is very nice; more Mark Lettieri - Cause We've Ended As Lovers

[StefanieJones]

Very nice, David. He looked a little awkward on the whammy bar, but it was really soulful playing.

This is nice; Mark Lettieri (Snarky Puppy) - Everybody Wants to Rule the World

That was awesome, Dave. 


On the subject of 80's pop, I just heard about Love Canon doing a Mr. Mister song the other day, and thought- well, they've finally run out of stuff to do, but WOW was I ever wrong. It's perfect.

Joey Alexander's latest video.

And that's a very nice arrangement of Kyrie Eleison, Gregory.

Keith Jarrett - Danny Boy; from 2002


A study in harmonization, to beautifully tell a story.

Django Reinhardt.  Always does my heart good.  A compilation of all kinds of stuff Django.

Capitol Theater 11/24/78

I went to this show...you had to mail in to a lottery to get tickets.  Jerry’s voice sounded awful, but his playing was fun and full of energy.  They were supposed to play the Garden a couple days later but they cancelled saying Jerry had strep throat and had to rest up for the New Years shows ( I caught those too...flew on a 747 from NY to SF with Bill Murray, he was going to the shows too to see the Blues Brothers open up...that’s when the upstairs on a 747 was a big lounge with comfy chairs, tables, and wrap around couches...fun stuff!).      They came back and did the Garden shows in January, along with some great shows at Nassau and Philly... shall we go, you and I while we can...

The Joey Alexander was nice. 
So was the Keith Jarrett (in my youth I dated a classical/baroque keyboardist; when at her place I used to..um, get in a listening mood, nudge nudge wink wink say n'more, and listen to The Köln Concerts.  First time jazz didn't just sound like noise to my rock'n'roll ears).

Yesterday I watched Cassandra Wilson doing a tribute to Billie Holiday on Austin City Limits; sorry I didn't make note of the broadcast date (it was the DVR), but if you can find it, it's worth the hour.

The Koln Concerts... some of the best of the best of Keith Jarrett. Totally changed my ideas as to how jazz, classical, and gospel could be blended to create something that was much more than additive.

[pauldo]

+1 for Joey Alexander.
Dynamite energy in that studio.

[StefanieJones]

G. Washington Jr.

Michael Hedges - Rickover’s Dream live.

[cozmik_cowboy]

A bunch of really good players doing "Summertime" on a bunch of really sweet guitars.
