Not quite sure where to post this, it's minimalist but could be posted under classical, jazz, or in this case world music:

It's 27C here - too hot to do anything outside, so staying indoors drinking a bottle of Becks lager and playing this:
Toumani Diabate with Ballake Sissoko - 'New Ancient Strings'
Interesting choice: a jazz trumpeter new to me. I know of Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones, but not Kenny Doreham.Quote:

That is a fairly recent (2007) release, compared with the Stanley Clarke titles I am familiar with - is it worth tracking down a copy?Quote:

I used to have a copy of 'Rocks, Pebbles and Sand', but didn't really get on with it.
"The Toys of Men" is ok, a wide variety of styles, but nowhere near his best imo - I much prefer "Up", though it is very much an in-your-face recording. It contains an excellent remake of the School Days title track. Better still I think is "Journey to Love" (1975) preceding "School Days" (which will always be my favourite).Quote:

Meanwhile, I'm giving this a go, I bought this for a good price in Bulgaria a few years ago, but couldn't get on with it. Ten years on, and so far not so good.

Not listened to that in ages. It was great, really great. Like being there.
