Go on, geezer.
It was 13 years(sheesh) ago today that the LeRoi Moore played his last show on this planet. For me, he was the heart and soul of the band and even though Mr. Jeff Coffin is a fine musician, it’s just not the same.
I’m thankful for the hours and hours of music that’s been left for us to remember.
Hopefully this will see its way to vinyl….

Collection Playthrough
016 - The War and Treaty - Hearts Town
017 - The Waitresses - I Could Rule The World If I Could Only Get The Parts
018 - Waylon Jennings - Live From Austin Tx '84
019 - Floating Points, Pharaoh Sanders, and T London Symphony Orchestra - Promises
Figured I'd finish out some of my W's with a big old mishmosh and play a fresh grab
The War and Treaty is a real treat for anyone who isn't familiar and is one of my favorite Magnolia finds. They are a husband and wife duo who are with, among many others, pushing this super energetic and exciting Soul-Americana run we're seeing (like Yola, Allison Russell, etc.). I think the album is a bit uneven, but the highs are really high. Five More Minutes was one of my favorite songs of 2020 and the album has gotten a pretty high number of spins for a lower impact group (at this point). A pretty strong recommendation to at least throw a stream on if you need some soul in your life today.
The Waitresses are a blast, and this one is simple. Five songs including Christmas Wrapping and the Square Pegs theme, a good bit of novelty but IMO Christmas Wrapping is a top tier Christmas song and the rest is still a worthwhile listen. One of the more fun blind buys at my local.
Waylon I feel a bit bad on because he's just not an artist I appreciate as much as others do. I really do think the live collection/recording is very solid for what it is but it's just not one I can get into that much. This may end up as a PIF/Sale item at some point. The sound is very robust though, I think a genre fan would very much dig it.
As for Promises, it was a warehouse grab and the sleeve has seen some things, but plays sublimely. Such an easy record to get absorbed in. What a treat

I cannot say enough nice things about this band. I have been a fan since '93 and will gladly buy anything they release because, as time has shown, it is nothing but quality!

It was a beautiful day of music.
Clearly you can guess who I received a box from...
A fun listen... until Burrell tears it up in the final track. Then it becomes a surprising, fantastic listen.
Why don't more people talk about this? I own a bunch of Donald Byrd albums, but THIS... if I had to only keep one, I stand with this one.
This is going to demand repeated listening for sure. Richard Davis and Eddie Khan (TWO bass players!) do a fantastic job of staying out of each others way and building the sound to exactly what is necessary and nothing more.

Exactly! Hopefully they can press See The Ocean Blue & Davey Jones’ Locker on vinyl In the future. It seems they do a lot DIY coupled with their regular jobs.
