On the Jazz front, really enjoying EABS and Nduduzo Makhathini
That's up after Makhathini.Both great releases! The only thing that's excited me more so far today is 700 Bliss, but that's noise rap not jazz
Ooooohhhh, I've been listening to a bit of Harp music recently. Excited to check this out.This is quite lovely.

"It's been ten years since Catrin Finch and Seckou Keita formed a duo. The seamless virtuosic union of the 47 strings of Catrin Finch's harp with the 22 strings on each neck of Seckou Keita's double kora – two cultures, two histories and two personalities merged into one atmospheric musical journey – has become a rare global music hit. Described by Songlines Magazine as 'one of the most popular world music acts of this decade', Finch and Keita create music that not only champions their exquisite instruments but blends elements of new and old music from the Western Classical, Celtic, folk, contemporary and West African song traditions, each echoing the other in an evolving tale of mutual discovery and delight."
Looking forward to this. Their last one is one of my favourite records (and somehow still in stock from the first run of 500 on their website)This is quite lovely.

This is about where I was last week. Take care of yourself and I should be able to get in more JQBX sessions in so we can listen to some albums there.Nothing new listened to this week; experiencing burnout. Will get back on the ball today for next Monday.
700 Bliss was okay. Deca is pretty cool. Gift of Gab vibes.Radar List for 5.27.22
