BIG BILLs - Scratchy Vinyl Edition (used bin finds) I spent a lot of my youth developing some pretty good flipper fingers. Big Bill Broonzy 1958 - Big Bill's Blues - replaced it at Emusic 1969 - Big Bill Broonzy I thought I replaced it at Emusic but it's not there anymore. I got this one - Absolutely The Best (note- Released in cooperation with Varèse Sarabande Records. Tracks 1-10 originally released on "Big Bill Broonzy" in 1967.)
- 67 or 69.... Who knows? It's not listed on the album. I changed the order back to reflect the original album with bonus tracks.
For those who do not recognise the cover - The Band Music From Big Pink
@Lowlife - interesting that you mention the 'new' Ida Sand album. I was listening to it yesterday on a BA flight from Cancun. Emusic still had ACT albums before we went away, but no new releases. I'll check soon, as I quite liked it, enough to buy if eMusic have it.
We are suffering from withdrawal symptoms - we left Tulum with the temperature around 31C, to come back to the cold, wet UK!
Thanks for the heads up, my wife and I both really like Mia Zabelka's projects and this one is mighty fine. As a result I've started following the label and a first listen to this is excellent:
On his debut album “Scattered Memories”, the composer, musician and true
master on the Iranian spike fiddle kamancheh SABA ALIZADEH blends his
instrumental virtuosity with spherical electronics, samples of Persian
music instruments and field recordings from his hometown Tehran.
Ps- Thanks to @Brighternow for another noisy Billy. Also, turns out, it wasn't quite how I remembered it, but it certainly had some highs and I hope I can get around to giving it another listen. I know "In the Name of" will end up on a playlist for gardening time. On to the Web.

Eve Libertine is best known for her role as co-lead vocalist in Crass
(alongside Steve Ignorant) - the seminal anarchist punk band who, in the
late '70s, launched a cultural attack on all social fronts; God, Queen
and Country. Libertine wrote and performed most of the songs on the
group's third album, Penis Envy, which concentrated exclusively on
feminist issues and featured only female voices.
'Sea' was recorded by by the BBC at
London's Vortex in 2003 as part of that year's London Jazz Festival, the
multifaceted artist has been experimenting with improvisational works
for some time, ranging from John Cage and Cornelius Cardew to her own
settings of Blake's poems, and performed alongside a network of jazz
musicians she and Crass bandmate Penny Rimbaud have collaborated with. . . .
Billy Gomberg - Into The Fade Released July 22, 2012
"What if the doors of perception led you not to any sort of understanding, but a sort of cold objectivity to your surroundings. The beauty held in a chair is shadowed through Billy’s combination of synthesizers and computers. Intensify your interests."
I sometimes ponder the 'why' behind the digital things I bought.....mayhaps I was thinking this might be kinda cool to put on to show some bonafides when my metal-centric friends are in attendance of any gathering I host and get to play music.... or maybe not.
Hmmm... research shows I paid $0.00. Thanks AmieStreet. Not horrible (from my frame of reference).

I am really getting to like this one. Very lyrical and, dare I say, pretty. Reminds me a bit in some places of I Think You're Awesome
Sounds like it's gonna be another favorite of mine for 2019
(along with that Richmond Avant-Improv Collective album).

(our national public broadcaster) that I thought was really interesting and sounded real
familiar. I thought I remembered the guitarist was Son Seals and the album was called
The Ninth Rail. I've searched occasionally over the years with no luck, until now.
Thank goodness I was searching Bernie Worrell and came across Third Rail on Laswell's
Bandcamp page. This has got to be it and after 23 years I finally get to hear it.
Wow, I'm pretty excited!
