Sneakeater Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Villa-Lobos: String Quartets Nos. 7 & 15 (Cuarteto Latinoamericano) Empyrean Atlas: Poly Rush Hank Mobley: The Complete Hank Mobley Blue Note Sessions 1964-70 (Disc VIII) Spirit: Spirit Mendelssohn: Lieder ohne Worte Books 1-4 (Brautigam) Cream: Fresh Cream (stereo) (demonstrating two things: (1) in 1966, pop producers and engineers still didn't understand -- or likely care about -- stereo; the mono mix is infinitely superior; (2) Cream was actually a pretty good pop/rock band -- but as a blues band they were horrendous: their "Spoonful" and especially their "Rollin' and Tumblin'" are disgraceful) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wilfrid Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Much of that Cream album strikes me as light jazz, reflecting the fact that it was, in its origins, Ginger’s band. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wilfrid Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 I tried some Poulenc thanks to Alex Ross, but didn't like it. Guillaume Dufay, on the other hand, I did enjoy. That was thanks to a mention in a biography of David Jones. The poet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
