Hi BBB,

I'm liking your jazz-infused playlist today.

Thanks Charlie.

Charlie Jefferson said:
Yes, the RHP is a re-issue. It's my joint fave with Down Colorful Hill. I never kept up with him much after Songs For A Blue Guitar bar the odd Sun Kil Moon album and a smattering of his solo songs here & there. You?

I have the first 3 albums on vinyl, also had 'Songs For A Blue Guitar', 'Ocean Beach' and 'Retrospective' on CD, but they've all been sold now. Never heard anything by Sun Kil Moon, guess I just cheered up and lost interest. *biggrin*

I keep meaning to check out Goats, my local vinyl shop has both (are there more?) of their albums but something else always seems to grab me.

As Jimbo said.

Joe Harriott & John Mayer Double Quintet - Indo-Jazz Fusions

The Associates - Sulk

White Noise 2 - Concerto For Synthesizer

CD? Charlie!

I was hoping to be listening to John Coltrane - Blue Train tonight after a bl**dy awful day at work, but unfortunately the record arrived damaged, so it's already been packed up for return. Not one to hang around, I've ordered another copy from Juno Records, which I hope will arrive very soon.

CD? Charlie!

PS. I see the Mancs have once again managed to get the easiest group in the Champions League, and Man City once again have the most difficult group. *shok*

I genuinely looked at the 4 pots at lunchtime, and I picked all the worst teams in each pot, and said to myself, that'll be the Mancs group, and hey presto! It was!

I've been listening exclusively to CDs recently as haven't been up to handling records safely. Looking forward to being able to listen to my records again soon. I have an 80s copy of Blue Train which I bought when I was in my teens, might dig that out for a listen then.

Yes CD, BBB, but it's worse than that. I've started running again - well, walking broken up by sorry bursts of lame acceleration - and I spent last evening not playing CDs but STREAMING tunes from my Mac to DAC. Such is the ache in my ancient legs that the mere act of moving beyond fixed sofa repose was just too much (well, apart from retreiving more wheat beers from the fridge). So there you have it!!!!

Yep, Mr. van Gaal's merry men have a decent draw but I'm sure we will contrive to make it difficult to scrape our way out. You must remind me which pot the Scousers were in again - I couldn't see them. Must have been an oversight on UEFAs part!!!!!

Liking your pics of those vinyl disc playback things. Particularly the music contained in the last post.

Hope the new order of Coltrane is an improvement.

*lol*

We're in the 'Thursday night Channel 5' pot, though despite being in the supposedly weaker tournament, we have a stronger group than yourselves and Chelsea.

Aaaah yes, that pot!!!

I'm glad United slipped below qualification for Europa last year. Then again, I'm really not very hopeful for this season, domestically and in Europe.

What do you make of Liverpool's prospects this year?

Just played John Coltrane - Blue Train, which arrived today.

R-5612513-1412168116-1621.jpeg.jpg


Now playing Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue, because I am after the LFC result, and even more so after coming very very close with an accumalator bet that would've netted me nearly £4,000. *bad*

Miles Davis - Porgy and Bess

Miles-Davis-Porgy-And-Bess-314167.jpg


I've had this record for a little while now, but I'd never played it before last Saturday. It's only a mid-price reissue, but it really is a dynamic, great-sounding record, and highly recommended.
