View DJ Peter's profile |
Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

At a performance at Phil Gelb's flat in Oakland I had the privilege of passing the bottle of wine to David Murray, who was the solo performer that evening.

DJ Peter:
Second, if the latter did you keep the bottle as a souvenir?

Love the David Murray (he's a bit more subdued, but still a presence).
Not that familiar with Kuhn, nice to get some education.
Some interesting new stuff, nice!
(I have that Abrams album).
Still up for those nasty, bulky CDs...
