Thoroughly enjoying this album! (except Mercy Mercy Mercy--in which the organ is highly distorted)

Ive missed this thread! Here's a funky one for you guys...cant believe Im just finding this band.

Found myself listening to this album several times on a road trip. Very rich in detail. Definitely picks up the Fusion scene where Miles left off.

Your racism is showing......

https://www.spin.com/featured/the-15-most-controversial-songs-of-all-time/ Pretty much Everything that was played at our HS Proms in the eighties. (and Ive met a few named 'Nikki' over the years. lol) From the article: In the mid-’80s, a big-haired then-Senator’s wife named Tipper Gore was taking a stroll near her 11-year-old daughter’s room. Without warning, she caught an earful of her tween’s tape deck (or turntable), as someone sang about “masturbating with a magazine” and how “…my body will never be the same.” Sex talk. Tipper was gobsmacked at the reference to pleasurable coitus seeping its way into her place of residence without her approbation. She would not take this lying down: Instead she and three other women formed the Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC) in 1985, which would establish guidelines for regulating music deemed sexual, violent, or all-around uncouth, slapping warning labels on anything that fit the bill. Among the starting “Filthy Fifteen” were Cyndi Lauper’s allegedly shameless and vile “She Bop” and Madonna’s supposed smut-fest “Dress You Up”, but No. 1, with a bullet, was Prince’s singularly pornographic fantasy “Darling Nikki.” The best part of the story is that warning labels actually helped sell more records — it certainly didn’t hurt Minneapolis’ finest, as “Nikki” parent album Purple Rain would end up going 13x platinum. So, no matter how you feel about censorship, at least take a moment to pose inappropriately and raise a glass of liquid meth to Mrs. Gore for pointing consumers in the direction of mellifluous debauchery.

Some idiot(s?) in marketing should have been fired over this. The poster causing outrage is literally the opposite of the premise of the film. Which is to highlight the exploitation and plight of underage girls in many parts of the world. Now that the uproar has begun, No Amount of Facts will change some people's mind as to the reality of the situation.

Google is an incredible tool. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/aug/21/cuties-netflix-film-fury

Thanks Sk1Bum! Just loaded this up on Tidal. Get Up! 🙂

Incredible talent from a young and up coming artist. Very proud of her accomplishments! Also new this week, Mr Miles...Jason that is.....

Looking forward to his new album Blue Moon releasing on 3/27. Heard a couple tracks on a local jazz station and they sounded great! Here's the first release from that album.......

Hi Sk1bum, Thank you for sharing! Funny thing is, I live in the Austin area. There's so much music here, you cant possibly take it all in. If any of you make your way here (after the Covid-apocalypse, of course!) Be sure to check out Parker Jazz Club and The elephant Room. 🙂

Really enjoyed this Flamenco version of Take 5. Had not heard of the artists until now....but these guys Rock!

Something you guys might enjoy.....

Bob Reynolds - Cant Wait for Perfect Very very nice.

Another recent release: Terrence Herd, album: Born to Play (on Tidal) Try the track: Straight Funky Here's another...not crazy about the track, but Oh Man, the video is nice to watch. (for purely musically academic purposes --of course!)

Here's a good one. Brand new off the presses: The Allen Carman Project https://theallencarmanproject.com/

As promised Bobby1970! May Patcharapong, MyOwn Roles (album) This Guy Jams!
