Pat Metheny Formatie 80/81 - Two Folksongs (Tune Koot & Bie)

Here’s something that could (at least on this first listen) be appreciated even by those who hate Jazz because they don’t understand the reason behind it.
Sure, the runtime is inversely proportional to the current attention span, and I believe no one who hasn’t already listened to the album will make it to the end.
What a shame.

Ah, vinyl record with all the crackling & subsequent rituals included.
I don’t know who the musicians are, but they seem quite good, especially that double bass player over there (rip Charlie) who really stands out here.
 
Dave Matthews Band - Time Of The Season (Weekend On The Rocks)
The Zombies represented the best of the British invasion, and this track demonstrates how ahead of their time they were compared to other bands.
 
Jamie xx - Baddy On The Floor ft. Honey Dijon

let’s see if this album, which hasn’t been released yet, could make it into my top five albums of 2024 #maybe
 
Carnegie - Never Give Up
Nice little record school 10cc - Une nuit in Paris/New Trolls - Le Roi Soleil...USA, 1977
 
Joy Division - She's Lost Control (Live At Something Else Show) [Remastered] [HD]

Among the many episodes, amidst the total solitude and despair of a man alone in a world that cannot stand him, I remember a couple.

Ian discovered while returning home from a concert in London that he was epileptic. That’s what those movements he often felt compelled to make on stage were… and to think that the audience thought it was a spectral dance, something choreographed… he was alone in this too.

During the early days with the band, to earn some money, the young man worked in social care first in Manchester and then as a disability assistant in Macclesfield. Here he mainly helps a girl who is also epileptic. One day, she doesn’t show up… she’s dead. And so every time he sings this song, he thinks of her and of himself suffering from the same affliction and who could meet the same fate…

And then enough, at the start of a new tour, he writes a love letter to his Debora and hangs himself. Despair no longer exists… it’s finally over.

You who love the band have enjoyed their art; for me, his fragile being like a crystal and sensitive as…
