Two vinyl purchases: Philip Cohran's African Skies in memoriam Sun Ra (1993) - puts a catch in my throat every time, very moving. And the incredible On The Beach (1968) - jazz theater at its finest and a frankiphone into the bargain.

Finally, Full Circle by Holger Czukay, Jah Wobble and Jaki Liebezeit. Thanks as always for the goosebumps, Wobbles.

Today I got 2 records (Both MONO)

1) Rolling Stones - Decembers Children
2) The Kinks - Kinkdom

So I've been liking Twin Shadow's newest album Caer lately. IMO he makes amazing pop music, and his voice is smooth and clear and just lovely. But that album got me thinking about his earlier albums and how much I used to love this song:

Caballero Reynaldo - In The Lounge Of The Naldo King

Twelve King Crimson songs in lounge/bossa/exótica passed through the Reynaldo
filter while watching the spring sun with a good vermouth in hand.

I got 2 records today :)

1) Traffic - 2nd album
2) The history of Eric Clapton (2 records)

^ That album has convinced me that if Prince hadn't become a pop megastar that he could have been a very influential blues and jazz pianist and singer.
