Hell or High Water soundtrack.
There's a track at the end by some guy called Chris Stapleton called Outlaw State of Mind which I must have played 20 times today. Utter class, and a stylish track to close what for me was the best film of 2016.2 -
Strollin by Horace Silver0

Focus - Live in London, 1976.
Very funky. My favourite band.
Thijs Van Leer on keyboards, Bert Ruiter on bass, David Kemper on drums and Philip Catherine on lead guitar.

New National album out today. I'm still hooked on the brilliant new Mogwai album "Every Country's Sun" and Daughter released a soundtrack to the video game Before the Storm last week that is also really, really, really good in stretches.2

Death - scream bloody gore
Opeth - blackwater park3 -
David Bowie - Pablo Picasso
I prefer Bowie's frenetic take to Jonathan Richman's original.

Good old Brad. If I had a right hand like his left, I'd be an incredible pianist in my own right!LennyLowrent said:PaddyP17 said:Brad Mehldau - 10 Years Solo Live

I was lucky enough to see him and Josh Redman at the London Jazz Festival November last year, when they played at the Barbican. Possibly the greatest live music I have ever seen.
If you're into finding out a little bit of his insight from the mid-90s when still finding his feet, then check out his hour on Marian McPartland's Piano Jazz! (I recommend the entire series actually - Hiromi's is wonderful and Bill Evans' is so informative) https://open.spotify.com/album/4fzBkxUpWJXmbFWNxRWYtl0 -
