What's Spinning

E9F4BE37-C512-4FD8-91CD-E3E706C85A1E.jpegNOW SPINNING: Lee Morgan - The Gigolo

Lee Morgan was just electric man, such an exciting trumpet player. I can’t help but get stoked for his solos even after listening to em over and over again, his explosiveness never gets old for me. On another note this is the last L album in my collection, excited to finally hit the M’s, lots of goodies waiting for me there!

Meh, it's not that's it's not good, it's just that it's not my style, something that will very rarely get spun, I swapped this and yet I still received it so here it sits in my collection

Bob Dylan - The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan

One of my all time favourite albums. This is certainly the peak of early 60’s acoustic, folk Dylan. This one is a 2010 MOV Mono press. If you see any of the remaining copies of these in store grab them, they’re exceptional, not far off the 45RPM Mono MoFi, which really is saying something, and miles cheaper.

This is my favorite Dylan album. I got the MOFI for Christmas and am blown away by it
 
#133: Keith Jarrett - Solo Concerts: Bremen & Lausane

View attachment 31139

The Koln concert is Jarrett's most famous album, and for good reason, but this record of his solos concerts at Germany and Switzerland is just as good, if not better. It's just crazy to think that the music contained in this 3LP album is all improvised, and more so when you hear the way he seamlessly transitions from blues to mellow ballad and from eerie minimalist playing to classical-inspired music.
Have you ever listened to the sun bear concerts?
 
My collection #29

El Afrocombo - Pan Con Salsa

I'm meant to be playing jazz in the semi-random way I constructed this play-through but not sure it's going to go down too well on a Sunday morning with the family around. So let's continue with the Colombian vibe. This is from the excellent Vampi Soul label that is shining a light on the less well-known parts of Latin music.
