Maestro: Music by Leonard Bernstein (Original Soundtrack / Dolby Atmos)
London Symphony Orchestra, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Bradley Cooper
2023

https://album.link/i/1716774772

Example:

I cannot really recommend it, just because I will never go back to this to listen to. There are some really nice recordings in here, along with rich performances. And then there are works that are clearly outtakes from the movie - that I have not seen. So it becomes very disjointed. Reminding me of the Tar soundtrack.  Just give me the full works as they were recorded and then if you want the other stuff stick them in as extra tracks. Anyway, I probably would still like to see the movie.

The Happiest Times I Ever Ignored
Hayden Pedigo
2023

https://album.link/i/1671890098

Example:

So I came across Hayden on a recent Tiny Desk, and I really liked the tunes, and the super clean technique. When it comes to guitar playing I am not a big fan of hearing the fingers slide on the strings, and that is pretty much absent for Hayden.

The NPR post. 

 

There has also been some really good 70's Jazz.

First Cuckoo
Deodato
1975

Example:

I have really grown to appreciate Deodato's playing (piano) recently. And the smooth funk is juuuust right...

G.T.R
GTR
1986

https://album.link/i/1036846135

Example:

Nice combo with Steve Hackett, Steve Howe and Geoffrey Downes. This one got a little lost with the Asia albums coming out around all this. Seems like a side project for Geoffrey, and the Steve's wanted to play together. Not mad about it. I thought that this was an early 90's album in my head, but it fits in with the mid 80's as well. With Asia and Yes around this time, along with IQ and Marillion. Good Sunday listen as I bake bacon... :}
