City Lights: The Oscar Peterson Quartet -- Live in Munich, 1994 | Mack Avenue | 2024 |
https://oscarpeterson.bandcamp.com/album/city-lights-the-oscar-peterson-quartet-live-in-munich-1994 This entire album makes me so happy. In 1994, only one year after suffering a stroke that rendered his left hand weakened, Peterson took the stage in Munich to prove to his collaborators, fans, and himself, that his earned title of “Maharaja of the keyboard” by Duke Ellington still rang true. At age 68, Peterson reinvented his playing style, and this album is the result. |

何を待つのか / What You Wait For
![]() |
Fork in the Road | Temporal Drift | 2024 |
Originally from Osaka, Kanenobu was one of Japan's pioneering female singer-songwriters in the early-1970s. She took a break from music to raise her children. In the late-1970s, she was inspired to resume her songwriting by the encouragement of her friend Philip K. Dick. The songs on this album were written in the late-70s and early-80s and were originally recorded in 1998. These versions, however, were reworked and recorded in 2023. https://sachikokanenobu.bandcamp.com/album/fork-in-the-road-lp |

Could be that Fred's security settings is blocking display or stripped the photo out. Random speculation on my part. But his mention of it did nudge me to read the most recent missive, so thank you for that.
