This morning’s listening:

Looking Back. A jazz album from Scott Hamilton, Jan Lundgren, Hans Bakenroth & Tommy Flanagan.


Sitting in the coffee shop near work, having a short break and headphones on, listening to Ben Webster meets Oscar Peterson. An album from 1959. Listening to the hi-res digital audio from my Mac, via Roon on my iPhone.


This Afternoon’s Listening: A Trance Mix

on.soundcloud.com/xUIY6uFPN…


I often read about how people are stuck in their teenage years when it comes to music. Well, I like all kinds of music, and right now I’m listening to Ben Webster & Associates’ 1959 session recording. I’ve not heard it before, and it’s the year I was born. I’m always interested in new music - new to me or new recordings, that is…


More Afternoon Listening:

Anthony Wilson - Savivity. Recorded as a trio, this album dates from 2005. I purchased it as a digital download.


You Can’t Hurry Love - Phil Collins. This was the track that started it all. The first track on the first album of ‘Now That’s What I Call Music’ back in 1983. This year (2026) saw the release of Volume 124.


This morning’s listening: Josh Wink - When A Banana Was Just A Banana

It doesn’t seem 49 years ago today that Elvis died at the age of 42. He’d have been 91 now if still alive.


I don’t often listen to the radio these days, but I’m tuned into one of my favourites right now: WCOO 105.5 The Bridge, from Charleston, SC, USA.
