Ahh…some good old school rap.
Been listening to this of late…Roger Troutman was one of my musical heroes (vocals, effects on California Love)…
Right now, Brad Mehldau: Art of the Trio- vol 3. amazing piano trio
Also:
Fred Hersch and Bill Frisell: Songs We Know. Some very interesting interplay between Friselll’s unique voicings and Hersch’s masterful piano work.
Been exploring the Indie realm- some of my favorites:
El Ten Eleven
Pinback
Karate
Radiohead
CBS radio mystery theater- radio shows- www.mysteryshows.com has all 1399 shows along with thousands of others. Way more entertaining than books on tape with only one voice

Out of those, I only know Radiohead…but they are a favorite of mine.
Man, Mark Isham can be quite surprising on the horn! Listening to All Blues on this album. Played in the Miles Davis style. Groovy slow muted trumpet, solid guitar and bass rolling along with him. Tasty.

“Dave Brubeck: In His Own Sweet Way” documentary. An awesome talent. And just turned 90 years old.

That’s two great entertainers in that photo! I just bought my dad a 5-disc Brubeck box set for X-mas…I may have to borrow it for an afternoon.

What do you mean, back when he was good? He’s still good…the new album is excellent!

Guess I’ll have to give it a listen but up to this point, I prefer his older stuff. Generally though, I’ve found the first (or at least early) albums put out by artists are more about the music and less about the $$. Sadly, it usually reverses at some point, probably due to the record companies insistance.
