Hi Rod, I've been listening to both versions of the death and resurrection of Christ that you sent me. Thanks again for that and indeed the rather splendid Penderecki at 80 collection. Reason for the mail is that I can't seem to find any details online regarding the version conducted by the man himself. Do you have any? Just my curiosity is all. Hope all is well. Best Dave H.

Great choice! So glad that despite my then mixed feelings about Blue Note this was one of the (many) re-issues that I picked up when FOPP were sellin… -
(Quote) I bought the expanded version of that a while back and gave it a spin last week; by coincidence I took a deep dive with this one yesterday.

(Quote) Agreed on all counts, thanks for the photos @peterfrederics, glad you enjoyed yourself. I guess Oct 1980 will remain the one and only time I got to see them.

(Quote) Let us know what you think of the show. Recently they've been doing a fixed show (like Phaedra 50th anniversary) followed by an improv session. Lots of fans and lots saying they really shouldn't be touring as TD which I feel is a bit …

(Quote) @jonahpwll Very many thanks for the hot tip it's been a while since I looked. 50% off $7 is very nifty. Managed to keep it down to just four albums - unless I g…

Really glad that this album got reissued around the time of Julian Cope's Japrocksampler so us young folk could get to hear it. A fine record by a fine band.
Their first was also damn nifty and had a "classic" cover@peterfrederics a friend has just informed me that it's #1 in the UK album charts - for whatever that's worth these days.Taking a chill pill and having a relaxing morning in the sun here in the north lands - celebrating the fact it isn't windy for a change (the perils of island life etc).

If I don't post for a few days it's either because I think I've posted too much recently and/or because I have no streaming link for what I'm listening to as it's either a cd or a file from an external drive. This …I had been having a conversation on Facebook about the fate - hopeful renovation of the bizarre concrete dinosaurs in Crystal Palace park (SE London) yesterday - and then I stumbled on this. It may just be me but I find the near endless permutations…(Quote) Colin Stetson is certainly an experience in a small venue. The Amaryllis should be a real treat. +1 for gigs in art galleries.(Quote) Arghh I was hoping for the full album! - Sounding good mind you.Not sure if we've had this one before. A great NYC Post Punk type blast of a version.

(Quote) I didn't realise that the second album wasn't released as such in the US at the time. I think it is a great record except for the cover version (The More I See You). OTOH Stanlow is a wonderfully bleak piece to end with (named after t…(Quote)
Oooh! Thanks for the reminder; I must dig out their albums and have a Stars weekend!
