Jazz OTD: The brilliant vibraphonist Steve Nelson has led only a few albums; "Communications" is terrific, combining standards with a few originals (like this). With Mulgrew Miller (p), Ray Drummond (b), and Tony Reedus (d). No precise track dates, but the second session was Oct. 11, 1989. #Jazzsky
"Nowhere Man" sounds like The #BEATLES Mod period and Psychedelic period mixed together. Very 1965/66. The 2026 remix for the newly remastered RUBBER SOUL lets you hear that bright simultaneous guitar solo from John Lennon and George Harrison in a pure way. Great lyrics, clean sound. #MusicSky
Stan Lynch from The Heartbreakers, along with the Speaker Wars, recently released "High Flying Bird." This rock song is a sentimental song about Tom Petty, with lyrics written as a kind of "conversation" between Stan and Tom. It's a beautiful song and a touching tribute to his late bandmate. youtube.com/watch?v=iISk2F_LDs4 #Music, #StanLynch, #TheSpeakerWars
Avant garde trumpeter Lester Bowie would’ve turned 85 today. I’ve been pretty obsessed with Bowie and the AEOC since catching them live in the early 90s. I made this edit of Bowie & Amina Myers’ God Has Smiled On Me when I supported Sun Ra Arkestra many years ago soundcloud.com/wrongtom/les...
The Rolling Stones have written some great country songs during their 60 plus years. Dead Flowers comes to mind. Their latest also contains songs fully qualified for #CountryRockSunday youtu.be/DhbCWGzw4c4?...
I've never really appreciated before what a brilliant record this is. 32 years old and it absolutely stands up. Could have been made yesterday - the production is perfect.
John Prine would have turned 80 yesterday. We sure do miss him. Here is one of my favorite Prine songs I recorded on the porch a few years ago. youtu.be/HKZFgcR7Gt0?...

when a record label says they’re releasing a new album from one of your all-time favorites less than a year after they died, well, you’d be right to be suspicious. but after listening to it for a few days, i can recommend Todd Snider’s MY SECOND RODEO. rest in power to the bare-footed folk singer.
RIP to Stephen Jones of Severed Heads. One of the early Industrial bands and also one of the first bands I saw when they opened for Skinny Puppy. They had giant video screens showing these random images and I was totally blown away; www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVMi...
zsotd no. 658 "Rose" by Chloé Antoniotti absolute gem of an artist i stumbled on randomly today. this is a little different from my usual tastes (tho i can't help but her a bit of Lena Raine and others in there), but it's lovely either way :) i'm sharing the piece i found her with, but you should also check out her latest album, "Mana," as well as the rest of her lovely (sadly small) discography youtu.be/aY1XYf_xG0c
And that was 'Au-Turn' with "An Age Of Chance" Au-Turn are Dolan Hewison, who you may remember from New Fast Automatic Daffodils. You may also have recognised Andy Spearpoint doing vocal duties on the last track 'Waterboatman' which technically isn't on this album, but its so good I had to sneak it in. All this and more is on bandcamp, the 'Paint By Numbers' EP has four more tracks with Andy as lead singer. It's great. #listeningClub
October 9, 1903 (in Russia) is the birthday of Vladimir Dukelsky, also known as Vernon Duke: youtube.com/watch?v=lLBdrN14eR…

Oof, spilled some tears at the thrilling new EDM musical THE HEART, about a race against the clock to complete a transplant. Fantastic cast, choreography, and music. One of the best new shows I've seen in a while. Here's a montage from the out-of-town La Jolla tryout: youtu.be/YSCylOv629Y
A bunch of talented bluegrass legends, including Steve Martin, turn Old Town Road into a legit roots song. There are some new lyrics in here that suggest Martin punched up the material. Trent Reznor, Lil Nas X, Billy Ray Cyrus, and now Steve Martin. What a musical path. youtu.be/a_GCX5IoCds

🎶 Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified 🎶 Vampire Weekend "Harmony Hall" We took a vow in summertime Now we find ourselves in late December I believe that New Year's Eve Will be the perfect time for their great surrender But they don't remember Anger wants a voice, voices wanna sing Singers harmonize 'til they can't hear anything I thought that I was free from all that questionin' But every time a problem ends, another one begins And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness Anybody with a worried mind could never forgive the sight Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die Ooh, ooh, ooh I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die #VampireWeekend #HarmonyHall youtu.be/yfGEq0JWxGM

First up this morning! Crispin Hellion Glover track Getting Out of Bed from The Big Problem # the Solution. The Solution = Let It Be (1989) youtube.com/watch?v=dcpJ5cjImTc
Originally from 2017, this had 3 cosmetic remixes, the last being in 2022. It's an #ambient piece featuring a synth and a field recording. It appears on my 2023 album "E tenebris oritur lux", and was conceived as an alternative soundtrack. "Tears in Rain" www.youtube.com/watch?v=_z8h...
This morning's #workout #music is special. Lonnie Holley is a god-damned national treasure and Moor Mother is a force of nature. This set in #Germany shows why.

So, some dudes from Pretty Girls Make Graves dropped out of hard rock and did this psychedelic commune with nature folk shit and it was really good!
I mostly know them from their song "Friends of P." but I remember seeing this video maybe once so long ago. A fun song and very silly and entertaining video. Sadly, they have been very inconsistent and had a rotating membership in the band. Their last album was in 2020. #music youtu.be/VW15vdcNSSk

My sister's weekly duet with her husband. A very silly song this week, but excellently executed! youtu.be/tkyIlEzulEY
I've been vibing to an artist called Realecta, who calls their music "Shamanic Bass." It's like a mashup of dubstep, Nordic folk music, and throat singing, and it's kind of amazing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQAJ...
One of the things I find most beautiful about social media is the connections we make. This... by @spoonhammer.bsky.social is an absolutely brilliant cover of one of my songs. They made it so. Thank you for being awesome mate. spoonhammer.bandcamp.com/track…

#MusicChallenge 30 years of Ultra "Big Time." 1st listen. Forgot about this transitional album for Kool Keith with Tim Dog. Nothing too surprising here. Keyboard beats mostly by Kutmasta Kurt. The MCs are certainly outlandish but also entertaining. It's best when they team up like this one:

Last night a friend of mine sent me a link to this album youtube.com/watch?v=bRAgP6IFbWI It's just a really pleasant bit of guitars and synths for your evening. It's nice!
Excellent new compilation of underground Dutch synthpop, 1982-87! worldofpaint.bandcamp.com/albu… #Muziek #Music
This is easily one of my favorite box sets, ever. The recording of “In the Wee Small Hours” might be the best since Ben Webster and Oscar Peterson’s version.
The live version makes it really clear how much of a spiritual descendant this is to "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright"

Striking family resemblance with Furtwängler and Mengelberg: -Beethoven, Egmont Overture, London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Arthur Nikisch (1855-1922), 1913 Is there any record of such interpretations being criticized by the older generation in the late 19th C.? www.youtube.com/watch?v=uk0P...

This track was the 4th single from Busted's self-titled debut album and reached number 3 in the UK charts. More mellow than their previous singles, it was heavily remixed for its release as a single. The frosted tips in James' and Charlie's hair were very of the time! #music #Busted #00s #poppunk
SOAD were amazing. I can still listen to a number of their songs; yet, this is still one of my favorites "Can you feel their haunting presence?" 2005 www.youtube.com/watch?v=33BC...
