Lionel Hampton - Hamp! (World Record Club, 1962 First UK Pressing)
And another carboot find. I have tried being more selective than usual but stuff like this always seems interesting to me. Maybe at the end of summer I will collate the ones that I am not going to listen to as much and pif them or something. For now though this is superb.
My choice of listening is sometimes determined by who's home. My girlfriend hates noisy rock and jazz so as she's out working today these were the obvious choices from my listening pile. Daydream Nation was one of my first ever vinyl purchases but my parents must have sold it so buying this cheap 4LP box was a no brainer. Really enjoy the live songs. And Pyjaen is one of the best of the recent London jazz albums - so lively.
Been trying not to buy so much new stuff (I've said that before ), so I've been digging out some old stuff I haven't listened to in a while. Some albums from my latin section this morning. I picked up the Bataan last year, but the Seguida has been in my collection for 12 years and the Irakere for 15 years and I don't think I've spun them more than once or twice. The Irakere is an Italian pressing with a very NSFW cover, but that album is really good.
Started it off with Kona Triangle's Sing A New Sapling Into Existence (an awesome Lone side project from 2009).
Now i think I'm going to delve into some Squarepusher - Music is Rotted One Note
Lucinda Williams - Essence
Rufo Garrido - Brisas de Diciembre
Love this Lucinda Williams so much and only gutted that it took me so long to realise this was on vinyl, plus old-school Colombian music of the type I love the most.
Are you gonna go to her show in Madison in Sept? I may try to; though I'm already going to Julien Baker out there the next week. Seems everyone's skipping out on Milwaukee and just doing Madison so far this year.
