This is going to be sleepy piano music at work isn't it?

This is going to be sleepy piano music at work isn't it?

Quite possibly. It isn’t really sleepy time music but it is mostly mellow. It is absolutely amazing that it was all improvised.

I definitely confused the shit out of a bunch of people blasting this off the back end while loading a truck deep in the bowels of the tourist district this morning!

This is a 5/5 for me, no question. It's gorgeous, and I'm pretty sure I love it more each time I listen. I really need to get my shit together and get this one on vinyl.

I have Bremen / Lausanne, which are very good in their own right, but Köln is nearly transcendental.

Really enjoyed this. And it's improvised on the spot? 4/5.

Yep.

Koln is an easy 5 for me. It is emotional and amazing. It sprawls and is epic.

Been a bunch of years, but this is most probably gonna be a 5 for me. Looking forward to this being one of my last albums to blast in the work truck - and it's supposed to be a hot one tomorrow!

 

[Nee Lewman]

I’ve never listened to this whole album.

 

[Whiteout75]

I’ve never listened to this whole album.

Me neither, but I really liked it! Never really liked the title track though, even though it's one of the most known from Tosh. But the rest was pretty great!

I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't this.

It's all a bit flowery and very busy at the moment, a few minutes into the first track.

This last track sounds like Elton John should start singing soon (I like Elton John).

This is not the Jazz I like, but it's alright.

3 / 5 stars.

It's nice background music, I forgot I was listening to it on occasion.

This is a reggae record.

2 / 5 stars.

Maybe more like a 4.5 for me, but I'm gonna round it up. Not my favourite Tosh album but I still love it. Definitely my favourite Wailer.

My mother is staying with us for a few days, just arrived last night. Would've been nice if today was the Keith Jarrett day, and yesterday was Peter Tosh. But oh well.

I had a George Costanza "A ha" gif ready to go for this but can we not insert images anymore?
