I'm actually completely broke at the moment, but when a really good offer on some Lee Morgan comes up, my brain just shuts off... so I got myself that together with some other japanese pressings, I'll post them in the following days (when I hopefully have time to listen to them)
 
It's raining, fall is here and cycling to the office was not an option today. I have no teaching, there's a bus strike and the metro will be too packed covid-wise.

I stay at home! I brewed a pot of coffee and decided to have a breather before doing some writing...

As Fleet Foxes releases a new album yesterday (it does sound like a gorgeous one!) I wanted to have a re-listen to this one. It's been too long since last time I put it on. It really is a fantastic album, in my opinion much better than the debut. It's a great record, wonderfully mastered and the pressing is top shelf!

Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues (Sub Pop, 2011)

My collection #942-943

Otis Redding & Carla Thomas - King & Queen
Bill Withers - Making Music

As @espendo says it's cold, wet and miserable here so I need some warming up. Two of my favourite soul artists should do the trick. The Otis and Carla is fun, but the Bill Withers is seriously funky. Not sure why this isn't recognised as one of his best albums as it's really fantastic.

My collection #944-945

Jay-Z - Unplugged
Rymden - Space Sailors

Really love this live performance by Jay and the Roots, plus great new piano trio from what is basically EST but with Bugge Wesseltoft replacing Esbjorn Svensson. Some nice tunes and even some synths to show it's not quite EST. (Clip is of the quietest track, but maybe the best one)
