What's Spinning

Terumasa Hino - Taro's Mood (Enja Records, 1973 First Pressing)

I've been listening to a lot of live jazz recordings lately (mainly the Enja and Steeplechase releases) and this one one which I bought really cheap a while ago. Its fantastic, really energetic at times but also really gentle at others. It was recorded live at the jazzclub Domicile in Münich, June 29th 1973. @Skalap this might be a good one for you to look into (does it count as j-jazz if it was recorded in Germany? :ROFLMAO:)

Four Hino's will be reissued on June 2 for French RSD. And yes it counts as J-Jazz, even if there is no OBI. Jokes aside, IIRC Yosuke Yamashita recorded a few albums for Enja.
 
The Original Dixieland Jazz Band - The London Recordings (World Records, 1974 UK pressing)

Recordings from the bands trip to London (via Liverpool) in 1919. I'm not a huge fan of Dixieland, but I was recently reading about the ODJB in Ted Gioia's behemoth 'The History Of Jazz' book and decided to get this one out.

The agutierrezb 2019 record collection challenge

So I've decided to embark on my own personal challenge, which consists of listening every record in my collection before the end of the year. My record collection is not that big -only ~250-, but I still feel like there are a bunch of records I don't give enough attention to, while still adding more titles to my shelves.

For this reason I've set a couple of rules in order to play every record at least once before December 31st: I'll play at least one record a day, going from front to back in the way I have them sorted in my shelf. I can play a different record (i.e. Not the next one in alphabetical order) if I feel like listening to something else in any given moment, but at least one of the records I spin in the day has to be the LP in turn.

I didn't take pictures for the first two days, but I'll try to document the process from here on, so I'll be posting daily on this thread. Wish me luck!
I took a quite long pause on this personal "project", since I was away from home for 5 weeks. I'm back now, so let's get back rolling, right where I left:

#214: Preoccupations - Preoccupations

#215: Queen - A Night at the Opera
