Brian Auger's "Closer to It" LP was one of the first records and first breakbeats I copped long ago, and his version of Eugene McDaniels' "Compared to What" on there remains a favorite. I bought most of these records many, many years ago - mainly for samples, but over the years I've come to really dig into the songs and music themselves. The living legend is still out there making music today, and…

Here's a few - not necessarily Swedish musicians only but an array of the pieces I picked up. Tracklist: Ragnarök, Entrance, Finn Savery Trio, EGBA, H and K, Collage, Jan Hammer Junior Trio, Jazz Q Praha
Been stacking up a lot of records to listen to recently - honestly buying more than I was listening, which isn't healthy. So it's time to start going through some of these and engaging with the amazing music on each one. Real eclectic mix today, probably another similar mix coming soon. Stay well out there everyone. Tracklist: Jules Blattner Group, Mini Mizzou, Univ of New Orleans Jazz Lab, Junior…
Seems like a good time to remind folks - especially in the US - that Cuba has continued to suffer under the US embargo and especially recently under the more aggressive Trump measures, things are in a horrific place and many people are dying. This mix of OG Cuban records - some bought on my trip to the country in 2015 - is a tribute to the amazing people across the country who have continued to…
