My copy's in the post from Sweden because I forgot to check Oto, doh!

See her live if she's anywhere near, force of nature

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

She's becoming the David Murray if contemporary saxophone, banging them out in droves. That top one is fabulous

Just to add as balance, a friend who's also a member got to see it and had a marvellous time and was bowled over by it

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Good luck. I'm waiting to see it when it's back home or will go to my home town for the replica. Can't be doing with all the queuing for the ticket and then in person.

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Ordered a copy and thinking maybe I should get the book too.Perec very much only a name to me

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

But I honestly did lament the departure of Paul D. I had bought the early singles and first album as my overall interest in HM declined precipitously. They were the last hurrah for me really

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

And I'm very much not being serious

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Absolutely nothing like. It was the death of NWOBHM, a whole genre killed in infancy

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

This is reminding how much I like Vincent Courtois

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

It was one big sell out from then on...

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Proper listen this morning, this is really good. I can't decide whether it's a shame or not that my parlous grasp of French means I understand none of text

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

I gave up on Iron Maiden when Paul D'ianno left 😀

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

The Jaume is a tremendous album

010

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

I did but still have a soft spot for Murmur and Reckoning, it's the jangly geetar

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

I lived just up the road, had no idea but I was probably listening to the latest REM or Husker Du instead at the time. Missed opportunities...

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I had a very quick dip, will investigate more tomorrow

010

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Straight to the top of the charts...

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I am very tempted by that box. It was a review of it that sent me looking for some Munrow and found the LPs are cheap so I bought some instead. This LP is lovely.

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Do this folks! My friends and family love me even more now that I have played them this CD. Top drawer music too!

022

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Thank you. I'm doing just that right now. A really involving listen.

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

The Mingus was nearly in mine too. Lovely selection

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

For some reason I've never ventured beyond London, typical capital-centric approach 😀. I think maybe because once I've listened to all of London I'm sated.

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Inspired by @mole9.bsky.social here's my #My9albums fwiw, (and I'm not sure that's very much) but it was a fun and frustrating exercise. And the database didn't have the correct Braxton title...

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Interesting. I've just finished choosing my nine. Not easy at all

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Interesting John Martyn choice

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

In the tradition Braxton #nowplaying #jazzcd #jazzsky #anthonybraxton I still remember the excitement of hearing this for the first time when I bought it on release. AB was an early Jazz entry point for me, forty plus years the "friendly experiencer" now.

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

That is very good. Need to spend some time with this album I think

110

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I stop at Rites And Rituals after which I find the guitar style/shredding too pyrotechnical fro my liking. This means I haven't heard the later ones but will see if GS is streamable

mjazzg @mjazzg.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Fire breathing ... #nowplaying #jazzsky #jazzvinyl #britishjazz is it my imagination or is this great album generally underrated?
