Albums You're Digging II

Television - Marquee Moon

This is one of those classics that I won't listen to for ages, but when I do it stays in rotation for about a month. I can never get over how ahead of its time the guitar playing is. There are definitely some touches that give away that it's a 70's album, but for the most part this album is timeless.

It's a great album, but it's definitely a grower. It is definitely their most progressive album...and that's saying a lot for one of the bands that pretty much defined the genre. Once you can appreciate its subtleties and you can kind of understand where the music is going, it really is genius.

I haven't listened to Nation of Ulysses, but I know that couple of members were later in Make Up, quite good bluesy, garage band. So I might as well check this out too.

Fantastic album. Needless to say, it is definitely one of my favorite albums (if not my favorite punk album). Although, some people don't consider it punk.

Charles Webster - Born on the 24th of July

One of the albums I grabbed before being told that what noise referred to as deep house is not really what deep house is at all XD But I still found some great stuff, this album included... very laid back music.

I don't even know why I posted it in the Last Bought/Downloaded. I might as well have just posted it here.

One more for today...

Sahib Shihab - Sahib Shihab's Jazz Party

This is some crazy good jazz led by Sahib Shihab, who moved to Denmark and Sweden after living in New York and playing with musicians including Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, and Dizzy Gillespie. This album is fantastic, with definite European influences at times and an interesting mix of modal and bebop or hard bop (still haven't figured out the differences between these two XD).
