Joe Harriott - Partying With Joe (Gearbox Records, 2011 First Limited Pressing)
The Ronnie Scott Jazz Group - Vol. 2 (Esquire, 1953 First Pressing)
A fantastic British jazz session to end an incredibly stressful work week.
This was a Secret Santa gift from @TenderLovingKiller®
I asked to be curated for, so he chose this and said he'd like to hear my thoughts.
Tonight is my oh so important third spin, and a focused listen too.
Side C is spinning as I type...
This album has some deep, deep hooks; I love albums that have those secrets to reveal or unlock after repeated listens.
It's pretty chill overall, and yet an intensity develops here and there...almost like a film score. I love the sparse production too.
This is a great record, it'll get a lot of spins. Thanks again!
Sometimes this hobby disappoints so much that you wonder if it’s worth it. Then you throw something on the table straight from the plastic wrap and it reminds you why it is.
