more african/swedish crossover with dyani sticking to keys/vocals throughout.
gets kind of poppy & proggish in places but will listen to anything with dudu pukawana on it!

alternating between a huge playlist of recent UK jazz and a huge playlist of Aleksi Perälä.

Original US release of What We Did On Our Holidays as Fairport Convention (guess the originally s/t debut hadn't come out in America yet?)

This LP plays itself in my head everyday, all my life since first listen, without warning:

shuffle just threw up the sweetest segue from Mats/Morgan band's "allan in the rain" to levantis "jamaican greek style"

Reading through the mass of promo emails I got for Bandcamp Friday, I came across the new Miguel Mendez album on Deathbomb Arc. This is not one of the sounds I associate with that label, but I'm really digging it right now!

that is beautiful, and also what is that

the one just above is the third (i think? second on esp-disk anyway) release by alan sondheim/ritual-all-7-70; jazz derived improv with a touch of early moog use (prob my favourite of his/their work, though the others are excellent too imo)

The Circle! I love late period Wipers

took me a while to come around to their later stuff but it is excellent. Greg Sage's guitar playing and sound just got better as time went on.

Yeah it’s so sweet. Really dig The Herd. I’ve been wondering lately why he hasn’t released anything in the last 20 years. It feels like a remarkable silence. Maybe I just missed the memo
