Dusty Chalk 8,567 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I kind of dig Jean-Pierre Rampal (collaborator with Claude Bolling), but that's because memories/nostalgia/personal reasons. But I love that tune, one of my all-time favourite standards; one of these days I'm going to arrange a medley of Sunny/Windy/Spooky (the predicate adjectives trilogy?). Or maybe it'll go Spooky/Windy/Sunny. I don't know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

roadtonowhere08 158 Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Also, a 24/96 of Steven Wilson's Hand. Cannot. Erase. -- this is sublime, I really think his songcraft is at an all time peak, and I can really feel the inspiration that he got from the story, because it feels like he wants to convey something that's not his, putting it before himself. Even the solos seem perfectly placed, in service to the song over just wankynoodlecraft. Boy am I late to this party! I totally agree. This album is outstanding. And yeah, the deluxe book version gets my vote for the most over the top, attention to every detail, must have been on drugs single album release ever. Don't believe me? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHHJjZH1l_4 Immersion is an understatement. Edited April 18, 2015 by roadtonowhere08 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ironbut 2,274 Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 Hey,.. that sounds awful good to me too! Maybe something to look out for on the Record Store Day run (sure would like to get that Third Man Records Elvis though!). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
minimus 13 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Sufjan Stevens -- Carrie & Lowell Sad and beautiful. Agreed. I like all of his albums, but this one is profound and mood altering. I saw him last Saturday at the Beacon Theater in Manhattan -- he was great, but he was wiping away tears as he was playing a lot of these songs. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dusty Chalk 8,567 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 I've been binging on Archive live concerts on YouTube, I think they've surpassed Anathema as my favourite of "that" kind of music, whatever "that" is. Example: Right now taking a detour for a London Grammar concert: 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Knuckledragger 3,832 Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Kruder & Dorfmeister - The K&D Sessions, 2014 Web release. THE definitive collection of downtempo remixes. Unfortunately, the web release is a very lazy re-issue. The original 1998 2CD set was "blended" in the studio, as was the trend at the time. The in-studio mixing wasn't done very artfully and it's pretty distracting to listen to. Worse still, the tracks are a nightmare to use for DJing purposes. The definitive edition remains the 4LP German vinyl version. Tragically, I do not own this. I remember seeing it for sale in Newberry Comics, for $40 or so. In the fall of '98 I was fresh out of college, marginally employed and drinking heavily, so I didn't buy it. At one point, any decently clean copy of the vinyl version sold for nearly $100. Prices have come back down as vinyl has fallen out of favor with all but the most dedicated DJs. I don't buy vinyl through the mail anymore after the mouth breathers at my local post office stuffed a 1-of-1000 1992 trance 12" into my mailbox by FOLDING IT IN HALF (I paid 35 British Pounds shipped for the fucking thing, which was ~$75 at the time.) Studio !K7 did just release a glorious looking 5LP version which is mighty tempting, but I'd have to have it delivered on flatbed trailer. What? This is What are you listening to Part the Third and not Knuckles Obsesses Over Ancient Electronic Music? Oh, my bad... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dusty Chalk 8,567 Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 I think I'd have an aneurysm if my guys at the rw&b (post office) did that to something of mine. Or go postal. Or go postal then have an aneurysm. Anekdoten- Until All the Ghosts Are Gone I was hoping for a bit more after such a long pause... Amicalement Jesus, there's someone I haven't seen in a long time.

Dusty Chalk 8,567 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Abattoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus is/are still my favourites, by a long shot. First of theirs that I absolutely loved from start to finish; before that, I was only a haphazard fan. I do still appreciate their other work, but these two just do it for me like nothing else they've done. EDIT: And of course they're not on Tidal, so I'm listening to Time Out and Anniemal.
