Danilo Perez ...till then
This has grabbed me more than any jazz piano CD in maybe the last 20-25 years. The music is harmonically and rhythmically fascinating, and seems to pick up a seam of on-the-edge inventiveness with simultaneous polyrhythm and polyharmony pioneered by Chick Corea 25 years ago - particularly, for example in his classic collaboration with Michael Brecker "Three Quartets". There is also some South American influence but it is subtle, this is not a world-jazz statement. Great acoustic and electric playing from John Pattituci, Ben Street also plays and drummers are in turn Brian Blade and Adam Cruz (who is fantastic). I hear some Brad Mehldau influence on Danilo in the schooled and cool linear constructs, but this has way more heart and lyricism than Brad and the melodies are ravishing. There are some echoes of 70s acoustic jazz-fusion which I personally find refreshing.

Enrico Pieranunzi 'Racconti mediterranei'
Katrine Madsen 'Close to you'
Circleworks 'Less is more'
Tord G from Norway can't remember the name of the CD
Jay Leonhart 'Salamander Pie'
PIL? - god I remeber PIL - I remember the vinyl album in the metal case. Jah Wobble on bass, I seem to recall, loved those simple bass lines but I haven't heard them for years.

Forgot to mention that also been listening to and watching some footage of Michael Brecker, what an amazing musician. So daggy and yet so cool.

Hello; hi; greetings and salutations. Don'tcha just love semi-colans? So handy; so useful; so so.
Another loooong Saturday cranks into action; blech! At least I'm full of food court fried chicken; hey - am I on the wrong thread or something?
And I have the following sweetners for some high-tone aural action; yes.
Stanley Turrentine - Hustlin'. Reminds me of James Sherlock's short-lived Southwall project; I love Hammond at any time, but it get a real neat tang when combined with acoustic bass.
Tim Stevens Trio - Nine Open Questions
Mike Wofford Trio - Live At Athenaeum Jazz
The Jazztet - Live At The Birdhouse
Sam Rivers - Contours
Andrea Keller Quintet - Thirteen Sketches
The Bartok Project - Mikrokosmos
Shelly Manne - Septet West Coast Sounds
D'ats all for now; spotya latter; maybe.

Bud Shank - Live At The Haig
Picked this up for $15 just before I started work today. I'd read about this stuff and was rapt to stumble across it.
Made in the same year as me (1956*), and recorded at the (in)famous LA joint that also was the birthplace of the Mulligan/Baker aggregation by West Coast nut/fan Gerry Macdonald in really fine sounding stereo.
It rocks.
Shank's with Claude Williamson, Don Prell and Chuck Flores, none of whom remember the recording being made!
Hmmmmmmnnnn!!!! Sweetness.
*Just kidding. I was actually born in 1976.

Trying to listen to Dig but it is down. Is Dig having lots of teething problems, I tried to get on before and it was down then too.
So now listening to Alan Browne on Jazztrack!
Anyone know of other good internet jazz radio stations please let me know.

For all its grim summer weather, Melbourne does turn it on with some sweet stuff every now and then - like today: Overcast and drizzling. Yay!
Other stuff that's making me happy today:
Johnny Hodges - Mosaic box discs 1, 2, 3, 4.
Jack Wilson - Easterly Winds
Askey/Williamson - When I Grow Too Old To Go To The Supermarket
Spirit - Spirit Of '76. Best cover version ever of Like A Rolling Stone, and Walking The Dog, Happy and Hey Joe aren't too shabby either - along with the rest of Randy California's goofiness. Yum.
Bud Shank - Live At The Haig
