Appreciating Charlie Watts, The Rolling Stones' Understated Drum Master
Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts, who died on Tuesday, played with a deceptively simple style that took some fans time to appreciate.

The Collection Playthrough:
And now for something very different as I work through the remainder of the T-Z I have cleaned before starting either a Steely Dan or Stevie Wonder runthrough
127 - Taj Mahal - The Real Thing
Really cool pickup. This was a #3 blind-ish grab and boy did I dig the crap outta it. I think I went back to Fishin Blues five times. Just a super listenable and a blues album which doesn't make you feel blue. The main thing I worry about here is that this sample makes me want to find some more and he has such a ridiculous discography...
128 - Yo Gabba Gabba! - Fantastic Voyages
129 - Yo Gabba Gabba! - Yo Gabba Gabba Hey!
For my money, the best non-Sesame Street children's soundtracks out there. If you're not super familiar with the show, it's kind of an acid trip meets hipster parentdom who just want to not deal with Caillou for 30 minutes created by a couple members of the Aquabats. That may be all you need to know, but for the music, one of the upsides is that its pedigree got some of the greatest and hippest bands/artists of the period to show up and do a song. You can look, but Yo Gabba Gabba Hey alone has Weezer, Jimmy Eat World, My Chemical Romance, Metric, Devo, George Clinton, and Weird Al among many others.

Charlie Parker - The Magnificent Charlie Parker (Clef Records, 1955 First Mono Pressing)
Charlie Parker – The Magnificent Charlie Parker (Clef Records, 2019 RSD Limited Pressing)
Heres a fantastic release from the legendary Charlie Parker which features the iconic artwork by David Stone Martin. I originally had the RSD pressing of this (on yellow vinyl) before acquiring a first mono pressing from the estate of record producer Tony Hall. Just look how much more punchy the colour of the original is! Much more rich. The session is a compilation of sorts and sees Paker play in a variety of settings. Killer stuff!

Excited to finally be spinning this! It's actually technically my wife's - her brother gave it to her for her birthday last month, possibly encouraged by the pictures she has sent him of the Tool albums she's picked up for me. She's glad to have it because it reminds her of him but I'm definitely the more excited between us. And now that it's had it's first spin I can play it whenever I like, but I had to wait for her to pop the seal.
