George Braith ‎– Soul Stream (Blue Note, 1963 First Stereo Pressing)

Late to the party, but yesterday was George Braith's 81st Birthday. Braith recorded some killer releases on Blue Note (amongst other labels) and even created the Braithophone (an alto and tenor saxophone joined together with a single mouthpiece). Heres an instagram post I made if anyone is interested.

Have been watching the amazing 1994 Oasis Glastonbury gig this afternoon online on the BBC iplayer Glastonbury memorylane (for anyone interested about 100 classic Glastonbury gigs can be found there for a month from Bowie to PJ Harvey, Nick Cave, Radiohead, Lady Gaga and very many more, but from abroad a VPN is needed to access).
So here's Liam Gallagher "MTV Unplugged", sounds great. 👍

Gilles Peterson Presents: MV4 (Brownswood Recordings, 2020 First Pressing)

This. Is. Amazing.

Seriously, it's such an incredible album of live recordings. The fantastic thing about the UK jazz scene is how collaborative it is, and most (if not all) of the musicians performing here have played together countless times in the past. As a result, they all bounce off each other incredibly well and the end result is gobsmackingly good.
