We’ll keep trying to go for some timely comedic takes in these dark dark domestic times. I will say it’s heartening to know most of the rest of #WesternCivilization is looking at what’s happening here ,putting down the cheese and crackers… and heading for the door. No thanks seems to be the message. They’re gonna keep #Democracy going in the #EU even if the lights go out here. That is the most heartening thing to have seen in recent weeks. Also that #BillyCobham #TimeMachine video. Fresh air

Mose Allison, Western Man, 1971 on Atlantic

Mose Allison from 1971 with Chuck Rainey and Billy Cobham, recorded at Atlantic Studios and Regent, and produced by Joel Dorn.

Great versions of “Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me” and “If You’ve Got The Money (I’ve Got The Time)” plus nine originals by Allison.

My copy, via Crossroads Records in Portland OR, is a reissue Presswell pressing with lacquer cut by George Piros at Atlantic Studios.

The Inner Mounting Flame is the debut studio album by jazz-rock fusion band Mahavishnu Orchestra, recorded in August 1971 and released later that year by Columbia Records. After their formation, the group performed several gigs before they entered the studio to record their first album featuring all original material written by guitarist John McLaughlin. The album is credited to both Mahavishnu Orchestra and John McLaughlin.

Reviewing the album for JazzTimes in 1998, Bill Milkowski said:

...Cobham’s smoldering intensity on the kit and McLaughlin’s raging, distortion-soaked guitar lines, ...really grabbed rock crowds. More ethereal pieces like "The Dance of Maya", with its odd time signatures and arpeggios, and the haunting "You Know, You Know", a drum feature for Cobham, helped to create a kind of mystique about the Mahavishnu Orchestra that was wholly unprecedented for its time.

Mose Allison, Lessons in Living, 1983 on Elektra Musician

Recorded live at the Montreux Jazz Festival July 21st, 1982 with Jack Bruce (bass), Billy Cobham (drums), Lou Donaldson (alto sax), and Eric Gale (guitar) joining Allison.

Elektra Musician was a jazz oriented subsidiary of Elektra/Asylum, and started in 1982 – it was absorbed into Nonesuch in 1994.

My copy—via Aux 33 Tours in Montréal QC—is a Speciality pressing with a promo stamp and printed promotional use label.

Il découvre avec 2 ans de retard que #BillyCobham a mis en ligne le cinquiéme album de Drum n' Voice:

https://youtu.be/SiD5vyHKpHk?si=ZRo-w1AV8qZQF37M

Et c'est toujours aussi incroyable. Vraiment un des plus grands musiciens de notre époque. Il sait tellement bien s'entourer. ❤️

Edit: Il y avait de la merde parasite sur la playlist. De toute façon moi je vais acheter le disque ou le choper pour l'écouter sans streamer.

Re-listen (Atlantic 75 version).

Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, Billy Cobham:
🎵 "Eye Of The Hurricane" (Live in Switzerland 1983)

Birds of Fire is the second studio album by jazz fusion band the Mahavishnu Orchestra. It was released in 1973 by Columbia Records and is the last studio album released by the original line-up before it dissolved.

Reviewing the album for All About Jazz in 2002, Walter Kolosky wrote of the title track:

"Birds of Fire," which opens up the album, is a fusion classic. John McLaughlin scares the hell out of his guitar with his melodic convulsions. If you ever want to frighten a musical neophyte, turn your stereo up really loud and play the cover tune – it's guaranteed to send him or her fleeing. - Wikipedia

Uptown Conversation is the second album led by the jazz double bass player Ron Carter, recorded in 1969 and first released on the Embryo label.

The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos said, "Ron Carter's Uptown Conversation may very well be the most intriguing, challenging, and resonant statement of many he has made over the years as a leader ...Considering the music Ron Carter played preceding and following this effort, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more diverse, intellectually stimulating, enlivened, and especially unrestricted musical statement in his long and enduring career." - Wikipedia

Miles Davis - Jack Johnson

I've read multiple conflicting accounts of how this album came together. Despite it being two tracks (Side A - Right Off; Side B - Yesternow), it was edited together by Teo Macero from a bunch of separate sessions.

But whatever the truth is, the band absolutely cooks. Probably my favorite "Electric Miles" album.
