The Impressions - People Get Ready (ABC-Paramount, 1965)
"There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own...
So people, get ready, there's a train a-comin'
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board"
Terje Rypdal / Miroslav Vitous / Jack DeJohnette - To Be Continued (ECM, 1981)
Egberto Gismonti - Sol do Meio Dia (ECM, 1978)
It's an ECM decompression kind of night, and a first listen at that, Gismonti (8-string guitar, kalimba, wood flute, piano, voice, bottle) with a rotating ensemble inc. Nana Vasconcelos, Ralph Towner, Colin Walcott, and Jan Garbarek, dedicated to Sapain and the Xingu Indians. Immaculate recording of course.
Richard and Linda Thompson - I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight (1983 Carthage reissue, first released 1974 on Island)
I already had this record on deck last week when Richard Thompson announced a spring show in my radius. I promptly got tickets, to be accompanied either by my wife or her dad (who first turned me on to RT).
Soulive - Clap! (Blue Note, 2002)
12" with tracks from Next ft. Black Thought, Talib Kweli, Hi-Tek, Amel Larrieux.
Neal Evans' left hand bass (can't be a B3... Roland?) bumps on my system.
