owning my music instead of renting it from a streaming platform

#NowPlaying Freddie Hubbard - Open Sesame

#NowPlaying Mulligan Meets Monk (Remastered 2025 / Mono Mix)

#NowPlaying Thelonious Monk Quartet - Monk's Dream

#NowPlaying Alice Coltrane- Universal Consciousness/Lord of Lords As much as Alice gets lauded I still think she’s underrated. Nobody else was making music like this in the early 70s & it’s arguably the most ‘spiritual’ of spiritual jazz there is. plus, she plays a mean organ

The 'going for the jugular' posture by elite musicians make 'Trio of Bloom' a sum greater than its substantial parts.

Natski Tamura & satokofujii always make beautiful music together. 'Ki''s beauty lies in its spare & placid tone. Read all about it here> somethingelsereviews.com/2025/09/25/nat… Ann Braithwaite

#NowPlaying Farrrell’s got nothing but jazz icons backing him on all 3 albums during a time when they were making incredible records themselves

Natsuki and I have released our 10th duo album "Ki" in this month. It is available digitally: satokofujii.bandcamp.com/album/ki music.apple.com/jp/album/18365… And physical CD: librarecords.com/sne/store.html librarecords.com/snj/store_j.ht… squidco.com/miva/merchant.…...

This is actually my favorite tune on Time Out. Such a gorgeous melody & it was rightly played on piano alone for the intro..

'In Lieu Of' is another captured moment when the magic of Tim Berne's Snakeoil quartet was happening, making exceptional music that only these four people could possibly carry out. Get the whole down-low here> somethingelsereviews.com/2025/09/29/tim…

#NowPlaying Miles Davis - Decoy
