Dark Matter (song)

[Ello Sailor]

Newly crowned band-we're-comparing-PJ-to.

It's not that deep.

Jesus wept.

is that... black and white photography? is that girl... dead? none of this can possibly be new

If you consider an album from 1963 new, then, yes.. certainly!
To a Time Lord who has lived a thousand years, it would be pretty recent.
It was relatively new to me, anyway ::shrug::

I heard Breath today for the first time in a long while.

Dayummmmmmm

They had this air of tragedy and pathos in their prime, leaving you with an unsettling feeling inside.

Oh well, I guess it’s unrealistic to expect a similar level of emotional investment from them at this age. Still I wonder if Dark Matter will try to reach those depths of only just a bit. One can dream, eh

meh

You trying to pick a fight or something

That Bill Evans/Jim Hall album is amazing! Glad to have another jazz fan on board!

A genuinely beautiful album...The My Funny Valentine cover alone is worth owning it.
Check it out sometime!

Anyway, sorry folks...As you were!

I don't know you in the "real world", yet, this doesn't surprise me in the least.

I model all my posts after John Coltrane’s solo in “Chasin’ the Trane” from the Village Vanguard — meandering aimlessly in search of points that they never really get around to making, taking about 14-15 minutes to read, only enjoyable by 1 in maybe 150 people. Yet forever hopeful that somewhere in that mess is a window into the soul, where truths of the universe reside in the spaces between the silences, or perhaps in the silences between the spaces, accessible to those — if only to those — who seek with an open heart.

So far so good

Damn Kevin...Is it getting dusty in here? Beautiful

Bill Evans has so many good records. I’ve got a soft spot that I can’t quite explain for the one he made with Monica Zetterlund, even though it’s not remotely one of his best.

Much obliged for the recommendation. ...haven't heard that one.

You Must Believe in Spring (Bill Evans album)

Background
The album was Evans's last recording sessions done with Gomez on bass, who left after eleven years with Evans to pursue other musical projects. The same year, Evans also recorded the title song in duet with jazz vocalist Tony Bennett on their second album, Together Again.

The album's two originals by Evans are dedicated to his common-law wife Ellaine Schultz and his brother Harry, both of whom had taken their own lives.[5] The album also features the Johnny Mandel song "Suicide Is Painless".

Rhino reissued the album on compact disc in 2003 with three bonus tracks added, including a take on the only song from Kind of Blue that Evans did not play on, "Freddie Freeloader." The liner notes, by CD reissue producer Richard Siedel, indicate that Evans plays electric piano on "Without a Song"; if so, it is not audible on the track. However, within the list of personnel on the CD reissue version, Evans is credited with Acoustic and Electric Piano only on "Freddie Freeloader". The rendition begins on acoustic piano and switches at 3:43 to a Fender Rhodes electric piano for most of the duration of the piece. After Zigmund's spirited drum solo at 6:52, Evans resumes playing acoustic piano through the finale.

One of the most heartbreaking, stop-dead-in-my-tracks-every-time records I've ever owned. The losses behind the album really comes out in the music, made all the sadder by the fact that Evans's own demise was just a few years away. So, not a light listen, but a deep and rewarding one. A top five jazz album for me.

From The Foos to jazz… what a thread.

We need a second single.

Wonderful. I have some fantastic listening ahead of me tonight. Thank you both for the recommendations.
Can't wait to hear his take on Freddie Freeloader, as Wynton Kelly played on the take released on KoB

The liner notes to the edition of this album I have speculate on this very thing! A "probably wanted to put his stamp on the tune" type thing..

His take on the "MASH" theme is really something, coming at the end of such a record. Can't wait to hear what you think.
