Malthus

Saw Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds in concert in Toronto last night. Fantastic. He's like some dark evangelist revival preacher of rock.  :lol:

Played some classics (Red Right Hand, Do You Love Me, Loverman) plus a lot of stuff I'd not heard before. He's got a great stage presence.

Only complaint was that the venue (Air Canada Centre) was really too large for the show.

The Air Canada Center? What's that?

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Gerry Rafferty - Night Owl

I got a tape of this in the mid 80s, I don't know from where.  Every song is pure nostalgia for me.

Ariana Grande - R.E.M.

I have to say I have never heard of that R.E.M. song :hmm:

The Minsky Moment

Albert Dailey Trio - That Old Feeling (1978)

Convetional piano trio, but strong lineup. Dailey was classically trained and plays beautifully and with verve. I think this is his only streamable performance as a leader- his career started when this kind of music was in a commercial nadir and he didn't get to record as much as he deserved. He got some traction in the early 80s (Wynton Marsalis era) but then died of AIDS related illness a few years later.

Freddie Hubbard - Backlash (1967)

More Albert Dailey on piano in a different setting - Latinized soul jazz from hard bop trumpeter Hubbard and conga player Ray Berretto. Streamable.  "Return of the Prodigal Son" (track 2) has one hell of a groove.

That's a random, cool connection.
