max - I'd like to visit that store someday. I wasn't being snarky
I had vaguely been planning a USA trip in the last 12 or next 12 months with Ms fxh, to take advantage of high aud$ and low usa$, but now we're off to Taiwan for 3 weeks in November. So I've put it in the back of my mind. Still want to get back (before I'm too old to get Travel Health Insurance in USA) and do music, esp cajun/ zydeco, in and around NO and Lafayette etc.

Not in the mood for anything serious or heavy, so raided the arhieve for some lightweight pop.
From '94: The Lighning Seeds - Jollification.
This is perfect pop...

You'd think it was John Lennon speaking if there was no video.
I'm excited.
Tomorrow night I'm off to see Alan Toussaint, Jon Cleary and the Dirty Dozen Brass Band.
From what I hear they are all on top of their game.
Should be a great night.
Sentimental ballads.
Country and Irish.
Yeah, but tp me Dirty Dozen were the first of the " new" traditionalists (trad?) heh. A bit like Grandmaster Flash, deserving of respect.
Toussaint has been doing interviews and some nice live in studio radio gigs here, very much still gqood. Jon Cleary also doing live radio gigs. They also seem nice people for all their talent.

There's some downloads, podcasts above from last week with both, on Andrew Fords very good Music Show.
It's 2am, watching Jools Holland music show and who pops up but C W Stoneking - used to know him when he was a kid on the farm with his mum. Good to see him getting a bit of exposure.

Brahms' Symphonies (1 to 4) on EMI - Simon Rattle conducting the Berlin Philharmonic.
I just got a copy of On My Way Lp by Barbara Dane. Its very very good.
Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto No. 2 - 2nd Movement
Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra
...Sublime
'Musique Originale du Film: Les Tricheurs', this has got it all going on: Roy Eldridge, Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Stitt, Coleman Hawkins, Stan Getz, Oscar Peterson and Herb Ellis on guitar.
Great film titled first track and interesting versions of On The Alamo and Sweet Georgia Brown. The jazz musician always found an attentive home and appreciative audience in Paris and this in the main has translated into inspired performances when American musicians find themselves on tour in this city, or making movie soundtracks. A shame the city now has some rough edges.
