TMoney Posted August 2, 2019 Report Posted August 2, 2019 Some say the end is near. Some say we'll see Armageddon soon...
dsavitsk Posted August 2, 2019 Report Posted August 2, 2019 I had the unique experience of hearing this album years before hearing their debut and thus being able to judge it on it's own and not in comparison. Not nearly as groundbreaking, but a solid record. 3
Voltron Posted August 2, 2019 Author Report Posted August 2, 2019 The first two are great so they should be put to one side as you suggest. I'm going to try to give it a fairly objective listen.
mikeymad Posted August 2, 2019 Report Posted August 2, 2019 Get your Friday on... all 80s synth - all the time. (released in 79, of course) 5
Dusty Chalk Posted August 3, 2019 Report Posted August 3, 2019 So great -- I go back and listen to those 8 albums every once in a while, but that one stands out. 1

jose Posted August 10, 2019 Report Posted August 10, 2019 Listening to "Some Other Time" (or "Peace Piece") I felt like listening to this other Evans album. The improvisation on the theme of love of "Spartacus" is simply magical: Bill Evans "The Solo Sessions" Although most famous interpretation (three pianos) is here. 4
robm321 Posted August 10, 2019 Report Posted August 10, 2019 Love Peace Piece... and pretty much everything Bill Evans plays for that matter. 2
Torpedo Posted August 10, 2019 Report Posted August 10, 2019 Jose, what famous interpretation is included in the "The Best of Bill Evans on Verve" anthology? As I've seen that CD doesn't include "Peace Piece" nor "Some Other Time". Do you mean "Love Theme"?

As I've seen that CD doesn't include "Peace Piece" nor "Some Other Time". Do you mean "Love Theme"? Yes I means "Spartacus Love Theme". If your set has a minimum of quality (and I know that you have a nice set ? ) you can appreciate the three pianos interacting in the interpretation of "Spartacus Love Theme". A small change in volume is noticed. I´m not sure if this effect was tried to minimize in the mixing of the three tracks to give the impression of listening to a "single" piano or not, but in some moments the difference in volume is clearly noticeable. 8 hours ago, robm321 said: Love Peace Piece... and pretty much everything Bill Evans plays for that matter. Yes... "Peace Piece" has something "magical". I guess that this chords (Cmaj7 y G9sus4) has something... and then Bill seems to float on the melody. I guess that's why the two takes of "Flamenco Sketches" are my faborite Miles Davis songs Something similar happens to me with "Spartacus Love Theme". Since we are talking about "Spartacus Love Theme", Earl Klugh has a nice interpretation too. This album was given to me by my first music teacher in 1991 Well, I leave it, I have already screwed up the thread with my paranoia ? 4
robm321 Posted August 10, 2019 Report Posted August 10, 2019 Good info, Jose, I never understood why, but it is a special song. I'll check out Earl's interpretation when I have time. 1
TMoney Posted August 11, 2019 Report Posted August 11, 2019 New Bon Iver album. I'm never gonna say no to more stuff from Justin Vernon. 2
jose Posted August 11, 2019 Report Posted August 11, 2019 Today I found this jewel in a street market: Simon Trpceski: Debussy Images. 1
HiWire Posted August 12, 2019 Report Posted August 12, 2019 We Are the 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace & Magic – Foxygen I think this album is much better than their 5th album, Hang. The songs have more energy, cohesiveness, and authentic emotion. Also, for Foxygen, this album shows some restraint where their later albums crossed a line somewhere.
Dusty Chalk Posted August 12, 2019 Report Posted August 12, 2019 I was listening to Tidal’s Modern Psychedelic playlist, and their track, “Livin’ a Lie” from their album, Seeing Other People , stood out. I need to check them out further. Think I’ll start with that one. Thanks for the indirect rec. In the meantime, been listening to the Tool catalogue. I forgot how annoying their filler / studio wankery can be. Some, deliberately so. 1
Dusty Chalk Posted August 14, 2019 Report Posted August 14, 2019 Mt. Mountain, Dust -- so good. I've listened -- and liked, and probably buying -- their entire catalog, but Dust is their masterpiece. It's like Tool on quaaludes, with a bit of Desert Sessions thrown in. https://mtmountain.bandcamp.com/album/dust 1
