Michael Brecker - Self Titled
(1987, MCA Impulse!) NFS / Promo; mastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound



Rob Orbison - In Dreams

Very nice ...I really enjoy Roy...will keep an eye out for a copy.

Thanks, it's a nice record - Blue Bayou and In Dreams and alot of interesting stuff. What a voice that guy had - "the Caruso of rock". This was in a ~1500 LP collection that I picked up a couple of years ago - at a local garage sale. I did the usual "do you have any records?" and the older guy said uh, yeah I'm moving, they're just taking up space, and need to find a new home. Lots of interesting early 60s rock, folk, country, jazz mixed into the usual roger whittaker thrift store schmaltz. I came back with my truck and $75.

I got abt 80 albums from the estate of a local DJ who died in 1981..abt 3/$1 ...missed the Technics SP-15 with EPA-500 arm mounted in an oak plinth with receiver & speakers for $125 that was also in the ad

OK, so the weather wasn't too bad , no rain , not too cold, so I GoreTexed up and set out on the TREK for 1st vinyl safari of 2010...first thrift was closed, tho normally open on Sunday, but the 2nd had 50% day....I rounded up abt 20, but condition disqualified all but 8 ..not too bad for $4 ...its my 2nd backup copy of "Building the Perfect Beast" (a DID) , but perfect condition vinyl (cover only OK). I like Rhonstadt and didnt have this one...soundtracks are a gamble, but many are great........nice start to the New Year

Mark Knopfler - Get Lucky (2009)
Quite pleasant on first listen, but as I replay it I keep finding nuggets ...
From "Border Reiver" through "Piper to the End", this album keeps growing on me.

... If you like uillean pipes ...

When i leave this world behind me
To another I will go
If there are no pipes in heaven
I`ll be going down below

If friends in time be severed
Someday we will meet again
I`ll return to leave you never
Be a piper to the end

This has been a day to die fo
Now the day has almost gone
Up above a choir of seabirds
Turns to face the setting sun

Now the evening dawn is calling
And all the hills are burning red
And before the night comes falling
Clouds are lined with golden thread

We watched the fires together
Shared our quarters for a while
Walked the dusty roads together
Came so many miles

This has been a day to die on
Now the day is almost done
Here the pipes will lay beside me
Silent will the battle drum

If friends in time be severed
Someday here we will meet again
I return to leave you never
Be a piper to the end

Duke Ellington - Ellington Jazz Party

[demon]

hello!

though i never liked classic norwegian blackmetal, and did never understand its sincerness (these guys must be kidding??), i do admire its other-worldness.
a big friend gave me an album by the band "out to lunch" lately, called "kullboksrytter". might not be BM, but with that i have at least some norwegian JAZZ spookin over my asio
(coming with boots and spikes just the same)



i dont know anything about this band/music else than it is cool, lush and highly interesting. it swings, too!
