This cassette = all superior everything. Wassoulou rhythms fly by thusly: confident female vocalist Bintou Sidibe leads kamelngoni and flute on a call-and-response-fueled country drive. Oh and best supporting actor goes to the pure-toned guitar poking its head out at crucial moments. I am finding recording this nonstop awesome, keeping it on repeat for the past two days. Doubtless worth a 30-minute pause in whatever youre doing today.
Kind of fascinating 1980 album of mix-and-match quartets by piano powerhouse McCoy Tyner. Wikipedia tells me that John Abercrombie is playing "electric mandolin."
I remained unsure about the Mehldau trio albums on the first couple of listens through (which given that I have seven of them and a couple are double albums was actually quite a lot of listening); I am now through the burn-in period and starting to find them addictive.
Listening to some Harpsichord Concertos from the Big Bach Set - I really like these multiple harpsichord ones.
I noticed that the Bigger Bach Set that I already bought has a Saint Matthew Passion on it; anyone know if the newly released one is the same/different/better/worse?

This is the fourth or fifth great album of orchestral jazz I have purchased this year. Is there a trend?
James Ferraro - 100% - a wonderful collection of ringtone length tracks; worth listening to if you have 8 minutes to spare.

Atlanta just keeps spitting out great hip hop, and now I learn Young Thug has a new tape dropping tomorrow.
