I'm taken aback a bit with this one. Kind of a paradigm shift for me. One of the most badass songs ever? Or is it the 9% IPAs I've been drinking? No i think this is really fucking good

Why Dont We Have Both GIF

Unrelated -- me:  two new discoveries.  First is big band-ish small ensemble, Mats-Up.

Also, Pinhas & Sons -- Israeli nine-piece:

Both of these are absolutely ace.

A bit of a progy Saturday:

Earlier - 

Journey To The Centre Of The Earth

Journey To The Centre Of The Earth
Rick Wakeman
1974

https://album.link/i/1443406338

It's only 4 tracks, there is no real way to share a track to do it justice. 

Now more modern:

Day And Age (Deluxe Edition)

Day And Age (Deluxe Edition)
Frost*
2021

https://album.link/us/i/1556722306

Example:

Frost* has been in my queue for too long. I am glad I finally got to them. I have an older album of theirs queued up as well. I should get to it sooner than later. Solid band with Spock's Beard vibes.

Two things:

  1. Beato recently posted this video:
  2. I've been programming (in Go(lang) and Python), as well as taking a lot of video lessons in programming, so I need music without vocals, so...

∴ I've been listening to a lot of Yuja Wang.

Ed: Also, isn't that three things?

:police:

No, not really.  "3." was just incorrectly placed, as I CBA to find the "therefore" symbol.

I fixed it for you.  :D
(not entirely -- the indenting is still fucked up.  :( )
EDIT:  okay, now I really fixed it

She is fast - but happens to be very good as well.

She's amazing.  I've seen her live.  Pretty sure she has tied Alice Sara Ott and outpaced Hélène Grimaud as my favourite living pianist.

I love Chris Rea.  I usually hate blues (other than Robert Cray, Albert Collins, and other 80's blues guitarists), but his blues box set has totally ruined me -- it's entirely listenable, but now I can't listen to anything else any more.

Jacob's Ladder

Jacob's Ladder
Brad Mehldau
2022

https://album.link/i/1606023157

Example:

Been in my queue for too long (in this case almost a year since it's release). A pretty cool batch of covers by Brad and team. I liked this one from Gentle Giant, along with a pile of Ruch tunes as well. Always need more Brad.

Ooh, thanks for the heads-up!  I missed it entirely, AND he's releasing tomorrow.

Remember listening to them for the first time at 13 when the world was new and wonderful. Unfortunately getting a bit more aligned on the back end nowadays at 53 but still speaks to me.

Example - I chose the one non-beatles song {because I'm that guy}:

It is not a new concept - but Brad is just that good. All live tracks.
