Nice.

Although this won't be accessible for everyone, it's really worth watching if you can. It's a beautiful documentary about Ronnie Scott, his famous club in Soho, & more widely, about the history of jazz in London. It's full of remarkable clips of musicians performing at the club, from Miles to Roland Kirk, Dizzy Gillespie to Sarah Vaughan, Buddy Rich to Oscar Peterson.
A wonderful, moving, & very humane film.
There was a fair bit of love around here last year for the debut album by Graham Costello's Strata. The pianist in the band is Fergus McCreadie, & his own Trio's second album, Cairn, is released in January. This is the title cut, & it shows how he is building on the achievements of his debut, Turas:
It seems to me that jazz will never die as long as there are connoisseurs of it and as long as there are performers who feel this music so precisely. Of course, we can listen to classical jazz only in digitized old recordings and there is no competition for them. I love modern songs, but old Frank is unlikely to be outdone.
New Matthew Halsall album

Totally overlooked album in the 'scandinavian garbarek Jarret style' (if that is a style).
Watching a Big Ears stream from the Norwegian Digital Jazz Festival of Eivind Aarset Quartet, wonderful stuff, have never heard them before but loving it. Double bill with Hedvig Mollestad Trio (who were superb). Certainly going to explore this stuff.

I blame Wynton, what was the question?

I f-ing love Arild Anderson, man. One of my favorite bassists. Thanks!

The bass "slipping" in #3065 is a playful reference to this:

Just released this week, this new Trio recording by Julian Arguėlles is a late contender for jazz album of the year. There are beautiful melodies, short free improvs, & consistently brilliant playing from all the musicians, but most especially Julian.
(I should declare an interest - I was fortunate enough to have Julian play in a trio with Colin Steele & Dave Milligan for my 50th birthday.)
(apologies - especially to Trane - for being to lazy to figure out the Bandcamp fix on my phone!)
