Appreciate you thinking of me! Not in a position to listen now but have them flagged for later — anything using that last Parker record as a starting point, I’m interested in!

Glad to see your International discovery, trag! I have several releases from them that I really enjoy. I find that I get into, like, maybe half of their catalogue. A lot of their releases, while good and I appreciate them, tend to be a little too far into the "challenging" spectrum, and I'm just not in the mood or have the patience to put in the effort to listen to them.
