Tomeka will be part of that show next month, I think. She is another favorite around here.
What I particularly admire about Nicole is the shifts/risks she makes from one project to the next. Never predictable. As her new album testifies, she has also become quite an accomplished leader/arranger of big groups.
eta Link for those interested in hearing that music!
Ooh thanks for the heads up Rostasi! Musci & Venosta's album (or comp) of Water Messages on Desert Sand & Urban and Tribal Portraits was one of the first cds I bought from Ye Olde Recommended Records shop. Dang those early cds with their 75 minute limit. Somewhat later I also picked up A Noise, A Sound. I'll be having that there Loa ASAP!
Getting righteous in the early morning sunshine. Lovely album.
I wish my old church had had a bit of this going on, I also wish I had a lot more Document Records. Only time I saw them in bulk was in the basement of Ray's Jazz back in the '90's and they weren't cheap either.
Grateful Dead -1977-05-25; 40 years ago today! Audience version, not the Dave's Picks version, but the Dave's version reminds me that Star Wars was also 40 years ago today, so happy Star Wars day! And thinking of important anniversaries I just looked up and realized tomorrow is Sgt Pepper's 50th!
As is often the case early in the morning I put on a CD before turning on my computer sometimes just at random. This morning my random pick is Beatles Help.
Amc2 - I knew the anniversary was coming up, but I didn't realise it is today. I am old enough to have heard the first ever world radio play on the Kenny Everett show on Radio London, a pirate radio station.
It is a hot day here today, so I am playing Getz/Gilberto as suitable summer music
@greg: yeah, May 26 was the U.K. Release; I think June 2 for US. I looked it up yesterday because I realized that it was 40 for Star Wars; got me thinking about other anniversaries.
sorta abstract psych free folk New Weird America hints of German '70's music. Nice. Came out on Sloow Tapes in 2008 in an edition of 70 cassette. Thank goodness for the internet then.
I listened to this again this morning. Although it was a very significant and influential release at the time, with some excellent tracks, being controversial, I do not feel all tracks have stood the test of time as much as some other Beatles albums, such as the White Album.

Thanks for the link Doofy
Streaming at Bandcamp. Different than I was expecting somehow - almost funkified in places
This progression should tell you what country I am in at the moment, as I am mostly following my travel policy of listening to local music.
