Never heard First Meditations despite ranking Meditations proper um, quite highly on my ballot. That cover stopped me from ever picking it up in record stores tbh.

they're both great -- first meditations is better imo.

Dudes. It's the very last recording made by the classic Coltrane quartet. Whether you think it's better than the later version or not, it's essential!

such a big album...I voted for this.

i forget if i did or not. I cant remember my ballot at all so if there's a lack of 'i voted for this' it's probably because i forgot if i did or not.
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Tuesday, 30 August 2011 16:02 (fourteen years ago)
That's the one Shorter Blue Note I haven't heard. I'm reasonably certain Super Nova is on my ballot, though.

deej will be chuffed to bits
Now that I've resolved my html problems, is there a way to see your history when listening to Spotify in shuffle mode or any mode) once you shift playlists? I just heard something cool with some kind of flamenco sound and castanets and a female vocalist and now I don't know what it was.
Actually I went to look at what it was and hit some button by accident which played something else.

― dubplates and monster munch (seandalai), Tuesday, 30 August 2011 18:07 (fourteen years ago)
I don't have Spotify, but my guess is Mingus, "Ysabel's Table Dance"

the advantages of scrobbling right here

Yeah, that was it. Thanks, Fastnbulbous.
― Hipster Shake Boogie (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 30 August 2011 18:14 (fourteen years ago)
Yeah, it's probably Ysabel's Table Dance from the awesome Tijuana Moods album. Also, Cosmic Tones for Mental Therapy is an awesome album title & probably Sun Ra's best.

Best album title or best album?
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Tuesday, 30 August 2011 18:15 (fourteen years ago)
Both. :)
That Jackie McLean album is probably his best, too, imo.
― The Not Liking Radiohead Awards (Turangalila), Tuesday, 30 August 2011 18:16 (fourteen years ago)
Cosmic Tones is definitely one of Ra's best. Ridiculously ahead of its time.

― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Tuesday, 30 August 2011 18:29 (fourteen years ago)
My #1 vote. It gets to me on a physical level that no other jazz album reaches, I rarely ever listen to more than a couple of tracks in one sitting because I'm floored after the first one.
Also wow at that hippy-dippy psychedelic artwork, it makes even less sense than the dubious puppet cover on the 2-CD version.
― dubplates and monster munch (seandalai), Tuesday, 30 August 2011 18:34 (fourteen years ago)
I actually think it makes more sense, at least from an old-fogey-record-company-dude-in-the-60s way: "The kids today, they like the swirly far-out letters!" That puppet, on the other hand, is random to the point of being insulting to Ayler's memory.
― shake it, shake it, sugary pee (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Tuesday, 30 August 2011 18:35 (fourteen years ago)
both shit covers anyway - pity given the stellar artwork dominating the countdown hitherto.
