Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Nov 24 2023
Kenya by Machito
Dec 03 2023
Tank Battles by Dagmar Krause
Dec 09 2023

This recording is not available on Spotify

Water From An Ancient Well by Abdullah Ibrahim
Dec 10 2023

Sadly, the song, \"Water from an ancient well\", is not available in my country so I couldn't hear it. Alas, the abstruse laws on copyright shoot the artist in the foot, once again.

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
Dec 12 2023

Listened this so often back when it came out. I haven't listened to it in decades though. Nice to get back to it.

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Dec 13 2023

I've owned this one for years. Great album.

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Dec 15 2023

I'm a huge fan of Tito Puente so I'm always happy to hear his music. I really enjoyed this album, again.

Street Life by The Crusaders
Dec 16 2023

Nice blast from the past. Enjoyable.

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald
Dec 17 2023

I'm quite fond of Ella Fitzgerald so I love to listen to her.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Dec 18 2023

I hadn't listened to this album in years but it was so good to hear it again. I like this early 70s stuff.

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Dec 19 2023

That was a fun album. I love jazz from the late 50s and this was right up my alley.

La Revancha Del Tango by Gotan Project
Dec 23 2023

This was new to me but I really like this kind of latin-infused stuff.

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Dec 29 2023

Not for me. It seemed pretty corny but I did like her voice.

Beach Samba by Astrud Gilberto
Dec 30 2023

I've been a fan of Astrud for years so it's nice to hear this album again.

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Jan 01 2024

Only 3 songs of the 15 are available on Spotify for some reason. I guess they couldn't get the rights. I can listen to the whole album elsewhere but that was kind of interesting to me. In any case, this is a strangely popular album. For the kitsch or whatever, I don't know.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Jan 03 2024

An iconic African musician.

Aja by Steely Dan
Jan 06 2024
Frank by Amy Winehouse
Jan 07 2024

Overly florid voice stylings. It's not for me.

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Jan 09 2024

Have loved this album for decades.

Drunk by Thundercat
Jan 10 2024
Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Jan 11 2024

I didn't realize this was from the late 90s and thought it was kind of old school but checked it

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Jan 15 2024

I'm a huge Miles Davis fan so I'm not very objective about him.

Third by Soft Machine
Jan 20 2024
