Joe Pass - Virtuoso

A recent video from Rick Beato about this album:

 

I was wondering what album that video was about, it keeps popping up on my recommended videos, but I never watch it.  Thanks for lettin' me know.

Me:  my friend Grace released her EP after months of hype...and it's really great!  Instrumental metal:

I miss that feeling of nostalgia...

Is there a term for getting nostalgic for nostalgia?

Exactly.

And thanks for reminding me, I was listening to an old podcast the other day of Rachel Portman (score composer), and it was mentioned that she's working on a solo album, and now that album is a thing of the past, so I can listen to it now.  Spoiler alert:  it's pretty nostalgic sounding, would fit right in with Joe Hisaishi's work:

 

Gyrate (Remastered)
Pylon
1980

Example:

 

some kind of peace
Ólafur Arnalds
2020

Example:

 

Share The Wealth
The Nels Cline Singers
2020 

One that is right on the edge for me, pretty much a recorded jam session with new group. An approachable track:

 

 

Soul Brothers
Ray Charles, Milt Jackson
1958 (still a good year)

Example:

 

I like this so much, new sounds in my ears..

Tunng Presents...DEAD CLUB
Tunng
2020

Example:

 

Whoa, that first track is gorgeous ("Eating the Dead").

EDIT:  But those lyrics are fucked up.

Shirley Collins' new EP, Crowlink.

 

Getting the daily working man’s Finnish Hawaiian fix. Kai Hyttinen - Honolulu.

May Our Chambers Be Full
Emma Ruth Rundle, Thou
2020

Example:

 

So, I listened to this earlier. 

I really enjoyed it - had a very Laurel Canyon feel to it. 

So, I listened to the new Album. And didn't like it as much. It is good. But I feel that it was a bit over produced and does not highlight her singing as much as the stripped down version gives. 

Head of Roses
Flock Of Dimes
2021

Example of first song from Tiny Desk:

 

Richard Hayman - Serenade for Love

Picked this a) for the creepy cover and b) because I thought it said Richard Feynman.   
 

 

 

Didn't know I needed a synth-country cover of this one, but as it turns out ...

That was a fun rabbit hole

Me:  lots of keyboard-based jazz 

 

Mozart: Solo Piano Works
