Episode 3

-
For the third episode of The Supper Table I'm serving up a bit of PJ Harvey along with some other reminiscent flavors. Whatever. The food metaphor is goofy. I know it, you know it. Let's just all be thankful that it's just about the music. I injured myself, essentially because I'm old, so I didn't put as much thought into the selection process as I'd hoped, I just went with what "spoke" to me. I like it, it feels surprising.

The Duke Swings East

I am in the middle of an experience where I work 12+ hour days and have one day off each week. In random moments I remember my intention to post something weekly to this blog, usually late at night, looking at stars, far from a computer, and then occasionally while at a computer, just like now. It is unfortunate that I can say little more than 'why didn't I hear this sooner?' or 'why doesn't everyone know this?' I suppose it reflects on my inability to be creative while working 60 hour weeks, but mostly it's because it's a mystery how albums like Nina's 'Little Girl Blue', Roberta's 'First Take', or 'Mingus at Antibes', could be so unloved when we swim in a sea of musical crap, mostly recycled from crap that went before. This blew my mind when I first heard it. The almost out of control funkified drumming of Rufus Jones, seemed both incongruous and perfectly placed. A toast to the great collaborations of Duke Elli...

Duke & Trane
