Exposed to it just about two years ago and it is one of Mr. Green's most shining moments.

my favorite rap/hip-hop album. I don't like that much rap but this one is good all the way through and doesn't have any annoying bullshit in it.

We should have had a thread like this all along. Seeing what other genres augment my fellow metalheads' listening habits is interesting to me.

Earlier -

Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited

Impossible for me to be objective about this, quite possibly the album I've listened to most in my life so far and certainly among (if not the actual) best from BD. Satirical, biting, wistful, a troubadour for the new age... if that age was the 60s and he already knew it wouldn't end well.

Now -

Image

Swans - The Beggar

News of a new album has me revisiting their previous work, and it's apocalyptic and fierce and resigned at once, all you'd expect from the modern incarnation. Nick Cave, but if he was a Jim Jones-esque cult leader preparing you for an eternity of darkness.

Yes, indeed. Such is the nature of life. And the rest, everyone else is familiar with.

There were a significant number of years in which Green and his Co. came to collaborate, in ways that seldom others, were of the same stature, for inasmuch telepathic improvisations, and high coordination, were concerned, only a few had the chance, to be their rival.

More than a year or so passes by since I last gave this live recording a proper listening, and many months, since I last sat down with Mr. Corea, and his equally skilled Co.

Months and years pass one by and without the notice of just how speedily all of it rushes forth and without the spirit of music, wouldn't all time feel as an overbearing burden, without which, one's soul would become swollen up?

I have spent many joyous hours, in solitariness, listening to this release, and despite the changing of times, and the sensation giving itself, differently, this time around, the pleasure is still existent.

The kind of jazz music that the lover of the music, seldom, if ever forgets.

There were men, and then there were gods, who enjoined humanity for a short while, left their inerasable mark on Man, and thereafter left, and became immortalized.

Rhythmic, aloof and incandescent.

The amalgamation of artisans of the first order with ineffable chemistry and the evidence of sheer capacity, laid bare, without the slightest of showmanship or caprice.

The music breathes, the music pounds, it is highly kinetic, and moves at a rapid speed, it is beautiful, yet it sustains, muscle and flex.

Mr. Corea and his most competent Co.'s daring and succinct assembly.

A 2017 offering from Mr. Corea just about 2 years before his passing.
