Thanks for the reminder about this album which I remember from all those years ago even though Genesis was a better example of what I liked then. That was about 10 years into my conversion from a classical music snob (French horn player for many years) to a huge fan of "underground" radio - triggered by hearing The Doors "Light My Fire" …
Thanks for the reminder about this album which I remember from all those years ago even though Genesis was a better example of what I liked then. That was about 10 years into my conversion from a classical music snob (French horn player for many years) to a huge fan of "underground" radio - triggered by hearing The Doors "Light My Fire" in 1967.
My sister, who remains a classical snob, maintains that I only like things due to "brain damage" from weed. Maybe she's right. Probably not.
I've been sober for almost 40 years and still like many things from that era (and many new things too).
For example, I'm currently geeking out on Annie Clark having seen St. Vincent in Austin just last month.
For most of my life, for whatever reason, if music is called "jazz" I probably won't care for it much. Except... when I do. [I have the same issue with "Indian" food.]
For instance, I liked a whole lot of what was played by the jazz loving lead character on the Bosch series but was overwhelmed trying to get into what was played. I have no idea whether you would consider the choices there good or not! Maybe you could visit that.
Anyway... you and Rick Beato continue to pry open the door to my appreciation. The Köln Concert is an important gateway drug for me.

Apropos of the Bosch series, I found this playlist on Soundcloud:
(1) I don't know if it's accurate
(2) I don't know if it's "good"
