I have been getting into electric Miles Davis recently. Wow so good.

Dark Magus, Agharta, and Pangaea are must listens if you haven't already gave them a spin. Still my favourite records of his that he ever recorded.

I found out i like jazz today because one of the bands that's gonna play at this year's jazz festival is Chvrches and man i did not know they were jazz! but i guess it makes sense when you know they've been influenced by legendary jazz quartet Depeche mode.

The small amount of decent live footage from the 73-75 era is pretty cool also.

Nah I've mostly been listening to the On the Corner boxset. Took you advice and listened to Dark Magus this afternoon... holy fuuuuck.

I don't think i've ever given william hooker a fair shake

i think really it's the sheer amount of terrible music that thurston moore and lee ranaldo made with him

Heard some Christian McBride the other day and I was surprised how good it was cuz I'd never listened for some reason but like, it was just a great trio recording. Can't remember what it was but I hadn't listened to jazz in a while and I feel another jazz kick coming on. What I'm saying is, fuck me up Geoff.

like i said it's in my top five probably and it's a great introduction to free jazz in general.

sam rivers and anthony braxton playing off each other is just sooo good. I've been listening pretty heavily to sam rivers stuff mainly (okay just crystals a bunch of a times) and man that record is amazing.

Ha, never listened to any of that. They weren't involved in the album I posted about, I can guarantee that.

The late period Chet Baker side of youtube is indeed a good one. I recall loving strollin’ which I believe is a live recording from around the same time as Diane.

Watched the Blue Note Records: Beyond the Notes doc last night. It included a soundbite from this beast of a track, and now I can't stop spinning it.

This album is excellent and brief. Melodic, spiritual jazz flourishes, not too busy but not boring either.
It's comforting to think that somewhere unfathomably far away incomprehensible beings are possibly having some kind of subjective experience of a world that possibly observes basically the same laws as our own

Yes, but Geoff, only the densest, richest stuff. Dennehy fan will accept no less. Seriously though, jazz recs from Geoff are always appreciated.
