That’s pretty much in order. There’s still a lot of albums I need to listen to properly.

 

My vibe this morning

 

Looks like that new Jeff Parker album will be available on the 24th.

 

New Kassa Overall next month too

 

here's mine in some order

 

thanks for sharing, will be going through everything I haven’t heard

 

Even though they aren’t jazz, love seeing Billy Strings and Neil Francis mentioned.

Also plan to check out the ones I haven’t heard.

 

Billy is amazing. I love the Francis record because its very 60s organ-centric psych rock but with modern production

 

Someone rec me something easy I can throw on while I read this evening. Not looking for anything specific.

 

Antonio Carlos Jobim - Wave

 

Much obliged!

 

Another new International Anthem release coming up.

Also, my Jeff Parker preorder came in earlier this week and the album is killer!

 

My go to album when I want something low-key but high quality.

 

Listening now and it's hitting the spot, thanks.

Which of his other albums are noteworthy?
