For me its the first or very early LP's of: Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South" Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer" and, Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
Well, today my wife bought me the Monk bio by Robin Kelley (great writing), so of course I immediately put on Monk's The London Collection: Vol II with McKibbon and Blakey....
The Decemberists - The Crane Wife. While I do listen to jazz 90% of the time, I also go to Starbucks every day and found their current release, then they appeared on NPR. The new album is good, but I really like this older disc. I wonder if they listened to Fairport Convention.
I keep thinking this band is repetitive from album to album - it all sort of sounds the same (like some folks think jazz just sounds like noise) but the more I listen, the more addictive it gets, and you start picking up on how different these tunes that sounded "all the same" really are.
