Have we had the new Strokes? I really like it, Pitchfork hates it, you decide.

"The New Abnormal" also feels like a pretty prescient album title.

 

Tried this, but at least on Tidal I think the mastering is totally brick-wall'ed with zero dynamic range. I might be imagining things, but I found it hard to listen to.

Instead went with some easy listening future conference call on-hold background music from Phish, their new one, Sigma Oasis.

Listening now. I liked it too.

Finished editing the recordings I made at the 2019 Monterey Jazz Festival (2020 in Sept is doubtful at this point).

 

Here's a great blues vocal during the opening "Tribute To Mary Lou Williams" from Jean Baylor and Shamie Royston on piano.

Allison Miller was the 2019 Artist in Residence. One of the groups she performed with was Parlour Game with Jenny Scheinman on violin.

 

Snarky Puppy was the last act on the main stage. They tried to teach the audience to clap 4 against 3 during the tune "Xali".

I haven’t even listened to it yet, but I’m already laughing at the audience in that last one.

 I went to a Fish concert once (Derek Dick, formerly of Marillion, not Phish).  The audience couldn’t help but sing along to one number, but they got the timing wrong.  It was hilarious fail.

...which is weird, because their other albums sound nothing like this.  Post-hardcore, I think?

Anyway, not now, but in an hour, will be listening to this:

 

[Dusty Chalk]

Goddamn, that was good.  New Fiona Apple album!  First one in 8 years!  More Tom Waits influenced!  I’m a happy boy.

^^^ That''s so odd, I JUST started the new Fiona Apple, too!  Was coming here to post it, too.....

Continuing the Nuggets from the Moon digestion. Esmé and I are dancing to Crazy People (1958) by Somethin' Smith and the Redheads.

It’s so great, I had to turn around and listen to it again.  I didn’t even realize it was dropping, until just hours ago, and just got so excited.  Made. My. Day.
