What's Spinning

#1937-1946

Wayne Shorter - Speak No Evil
Ann Peebles - Straight From The Heart
Miles Davis - Miles in Berlin
Maisha - Open The Gates
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Hedvig Mollestad Trio - Ding Dong, You're Dead
Big Star - The Best Of
Le Super Biton National de Segou
Mister Okoi Seka Athanase
Prince - Batman


10 slices of pure 🔥. I love Wayne Shorter in Miles Davis' and Art Blakey's bands but somehow his solo stuff never clicked for me until this. Ann Peebles is sooo good. Seeing Hedvig Mollestad on Sunday and can't wait. And the Big Star sounds wonderful at 45rpm.

@Selaws I forgot to mention the great lineup on this one with you in mind!
Gene Ammons - tenor saxophone
Tommy Flanagan - piano
Doug Watkins - bass
Arthur Taylor - drums
Ray Barretto - conga
That's one a hell of a line-up, thanks for tagging! Funnily enough, I have the UK Esquire pressing of this album but in the wrong sleeve, it was put in a Boss Tenors sleeve which is actually a different session with Sonny Stitt.

Doug Watkins is someone that I never really knew much about until I actually started looking at home many albums I have that he appears one. It's so so many from Lee Morgan (Introducing Lee Morgan, Candy), to Donald Byrd (Chant, Byrd Blows On Beacon Hill, Parisian Thoroughfare, Byrd In Paris), to Sonny Rollins (Saxophone Colossus), to Tina Brooks (Minor Move). Really an impressive musician.
