What's Spinning Tonight?

What is it that you are spinning tonight?

 

Santana - Borboletta

 

Great thread this...

Tonight I'm spinning Grant Green - Carryin' On. This 1969 album was Green's return to Blue Note after a stint with other labels and marks a major change in his style turning to funky-jazzy R&B tunes. Great album!

Check out the solos on "Hurt so bad".

 

Those Oldies But Goodies-The Olympics

 

I am going to join the Talk Talk celebration, however the party is well and truly over

a fan from the beginning - used to remember dancing to Talk Talk in the disco's( such a good song). It's My Life album I must have played 100 times when it was released - just brilliant. very sad - RIP Mark Hollis

 

Tonight it's an overdose of French pop: Christine and the Queens - Charleur Humaine. This is Héloïse Letissier's first album from 2014, allegedly a huge success in France which more or less made her a star overnight.

Intelligent pop music, good sound quality, albeit a tad bass heavy, beautiful melodies. She also published an English version of this album but personally I much prefer the original version with the French lyrics.

Check out "Saint Claude" and "Paradis Perdu".

Hi Tang. good that is what music is all about.

Such a Shame and Renee are two of the most depressing and beautiful songs that when track 4 - It's My Life comes on, its like an elixir of life.
Of course Mark is better known for his later albums, but this has a soft spot for me.

 

Talk Talk ?– The Colour Of Spring. my 1986 original Aussie pressing. incredibly detailed Maxicut pressing and prefer it to the well received 2012 UK pressing. what an album.

 

Prodigy ?– The Fat Of The Land. what an album!! one of the best modern recordings you will hear.

RIP Keith, you are missed.

 

Fat of the land? Is this on retired people sitting on their sofas staring at their music systems?

Bob Dylan. from the mono box set

 

This album is highly recommended for easy listening jazz. Entertaining music and Excellent recording from Philips label.

 

Patricia Barber - Nightclub
Premonition Records 15 IPS 2-track reel to reel tape

 

The LondonJazzCollector made me pull out a record tonight that I haven't been spinning in quite a while: Gil Evans - The Individualism of Gil Evans.
Such a great album. I especially like the exciting track "Las Vegas Tango". Incidentally there is a quite interesting cover version of this song on Gary Burtons 1970's album "Good Vibes".

 

Talvin Singh ?– Ha. felt like a bit of Pommy Bollywood drum n bass with a cool drink pinched from my daughter.

 

My wife told me to play her something my time every now and then. Tonight I pick this Mike Oldfield.
