The Minsky Moment

John Coltrane - Coltrane Plays the Blues (1960/2)

I've been listening to all the Coltrane Atlantic recordings I didn't have on CD - this one stood out as when the combo with McCoy Tyner (piano) and Elvin Jones (drums) began to really hit its stride.  It's the blues oriented counterpart to My Favorite Things, recorded at the same time, but released more than a year earlier.

James Brown - Love Power Peace (1971)

This is from the brief period when Bootsy and Catfish Collins were in the band - they would leave shortly after this recording.

Picked up REM's 'Automatic For The People' in a thrift shop today, as a reminder to go and buy the new remastered 25th anniversary edition; no I bloody well won't, checked on amazon and they want 80 Fucking quid for it. :blink:

I'd seen them talking on the news about the release and their somewhat interesting opinions on Trump and yet they're also promoting their own special sort of bullshit as above. :rolleyes:

that is a lot for what is essentially 3 CDs and one DVD. Here, Amazon.ca has it for $100, which is still pricey considering I paid $190 for the latest ELP set which has all their albums, a triple Live LP and about four live CDs.

Yes, that's a relative bargain in comparison.  :)
