    Not sure if this movie has made it to the table....A friend introduced us to it a few months ago, and brought the soundtrack by the other day....We're still reeling!

    I really like that Burrell/Contrane disc. Burrell's real hit and miss for me. Some of it gets a bit easy listening for my tastes, but that album is wonderful.

    Hmmm. another endorsement. I had put it on my maybe list; guess I'll bump it up a notch on the X-mas wish list.

    Some beautiful stuff on this album by Nicholas Payton. I'm still settling into it. The ballads have a relaxed openess about them and Paytons trumpet doesn't miss. A small group also (Personnel: Nicholas Payton: trumpet; Kevin Hays: piano and Fender Rhodes; Vicente Archer: bass; Marcus Gilmore: drums; Daniel Sadownick: percussion.) There's some more uptempo bits but everything is calmed down a notch from some of his other releases. Perhaps some Miles-escue colors.

    Subhumans: Death Was Too Kind

    Just got this reissue from Mr. Postman. I've had many of these songs on various compilations, both commercial and tapes people had made over the years. But I haven't had a tape deck in years and the Pissed Off....For Good Reason CD compilation is incomplete even if it does have a bunch of great stuff. However, Alternative Tentacles is taking on the Subhumans catalog piece by piece and this is the first release. It collects all 3 of the band's early singles, the Death to the Sickoids single, the Subhumans EP, and the Firing Squad single, along with a couple tracks only released on a compilation before. It's all remastered and available cheap, only 10 bucks for the vinyl. Consider how much these singles have been trading for, a fantastic bargain. If you don't know these guys, just think of fellow Vancouver band DOA...although I kinda like these fellas a bit better, really. Now, I'm just waiting for them to redo the Incorrect Thoughts LP.

    TSOL: Beneath The Shadows

    Yup, still walking down memory lane. This is where TSOL really took some chances. It was fairly unheard of at the time for a former hardcore band to produce a somewhat epic, emotionally wrought album like this, complete with the addition of synths and keyboards. Kinds pissed some people off, but they had already started branching out of strident constraints early on and this one just continues the progression. Besides, they were always more theatrical then their peers, so it really makes perfect sense that they took a turn away from straight ahead punk fare. Personally, I enjoy the way they mix atmospherics and desperation with sudden bursts of punk fury that come to the fore every now and again on this record.

    Billy Bragg - solo but still plugged in.



    The second CD reminds me why I liked his first albums.

    a 4/5 for me.

    Happy spinning!

    I was in a Jazz/Soul mood Sunday, I started out with Billy Cobham, went to Earth Wind & Fire, spun a couple tracks from the isley Bros, Go For Your Guns and wound down with Sade.

    A friend of mine got me the best of Canned Heat which is on deck for next session.

    Head: Heil Head!

    Like the mutant offspring of the Ramones and Angry Samoans. Great, fun trashy, stupid punk rock with songs like I Hate Your Friends and I Wanna Be A Retard.

    Atlantic R&B: 1947-1974 Box

    From Stick McGhee and Professor Longhair through Joe Turner and the Clovers. From Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin all the way to the Spinners. How the hell can anyone hate 8 discs of this stuff. Lot of less obvious choices as well really make this collection something special. Right now, The Persuaders are singing Thin Line Between Love & Hate. This stuff gets criminally overlooked when people get obsessed with Stax or Motown, both great labels in their own right.

    N.P. Steves' boy Justins' debut. The tunes could have come straight out of some 60s roadhouse jukebox, but all his own.
