^ I agree, despite his technique, he is a very musical player. 

Martin Luther King at Temple Israel of Hollywood

After posting in the other thread,  I just had to listen to the whole thing. 

P.D.Q. Bach: Music for an Awful Lot of Winds & Percussion
by Peter Schickele (1992)

https://album.link/i/1615812383   (it is on more services - needs to be updated)

Example:

I remember when I got these records back in the day and impressed that they were from Telarc. Good recordings. 

RIP P.D.Q.

Sometimes you have to take the whole 20-minute ride. IMO the definitive version of an epic song.

This is what I constantly am telling twinks!

Nat King Cole At The Sands
by Nat King Cole - 1966

https://album.link/i/1442983402

Example:

Always a treat to hear Nat sing and play. Even when it is this very very sad song about Otis.

 

Amanda Palmer - New Zealand Survival Songs.  She is borderline pretentious but I find I love her music, lyrics, and attitude!

 

^^ I listened to that the other day and had a very similar thought. Didn't post because of it, glad you did. 

Now:

I wasn't sure from the beginning of the opening number. But very good. Added albums to my queue.  (hmmm no wonder my listening queue never goes down)

The video is unavailable. What is the song?

It's Neil Young's Cortez the Killer, covered by Built to Spill from their 2000 album, Live.

Brittany Haas and Lena Jonsson

Great variety in these fiddle tunes. Haas has been one of my favorite players for a while now.  I used to watch her all the time on Live From Here, when that was still a thing.

@robm321 Hadn't been in this thread in awhile, came to post this, and saw the similar post above.

^ That one is even better.

Polaroid Lovers
by Sarah Jarosz (2024)

https://album.link/i/1702798530

Example:

I have been waiting for this release for a while. I listened to it yesterday (release date), and giving it a deeper dive today. I really like the different feel and colors that Sarah expresses in this work.

I had this one in my "to do" list, so will try to listen to it later today.

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Kleptocracy

 

Waking up to Hania on Tiny - It is going to be a good Monday.

 

ZZ Top Essentials

I dig that Apple Music has these artist essentials playlists with most of the hits included. Throw them on shuffle and enjoy.

Today, some Texas boogie!

https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/zz-top-essentials/pl.18bef26aad9941c682a190d0ac7f7a1d

 

Based on the NPR post above, I thought that I had listened to Hania's recent album. Turns out that I listened to - On Giacometti, not the newer Ghosts. Stupid TIDAL did not let me know that there was another new album in the same year (TIDAL is Dead to Me).... Anyway. 

Ghosts
by Hania Rani (2023)

https://album.link/i/1691156889  (Is Album link dead now? - it only shows Apple - I will stop using it if is just a waste)

Example:

So thanks to the Record Company - Here is the entire Album:

Nothing really to say - Just a happy day of Hania.. 

 

 

{oh, and Fuck TIDAL for not telling me back in October}

 

Thanks youtube... 

 

{Edit: and once again thanks to the record company}
