  1. Continuing class prep this morning...

    Soundtrack so far are some of the (few!) interesting new releases last week:
    * Jenny on Holiday - Quicksand Heart
    * Sault - 10 / Chapter 1

    The new Sault record, Chapter 1, is great, very much in line with the top notch stuff from last year. An online friend spied Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis among the credits, which is pretty cool to see, and I can feel a bit of their vibe running throughout.

    BUT it had me reaching back to their "10" record from last year, in part bc Chapter 1 feels a bit darker/bitter in spots. Maybe the Little Simz drama? Not what I'm looking for this morning, right at this moment.

    Jenny on Holiday wasn't really my thing BUT "Dolphins" and "Groundskeeping" were both great songs I'll return to.

  2. Rockpalast – „James Brown: Say It Loud!“ (2024)

    Eine Geschichte von Sound, Stolz und Selbstermächtigung. Ihr Rhythmus beginnt lange, bevor der erste Ton erklingt. Er liegt in den Blicken, in der Geschichte, im politischen Körper des Mannes, um den es in diesem Vierteiler geht. Kein Heldenporträt einer Musikikone, sondern eine visuelle und akustische Rekonstruktion von Geschichte – die so sehr von Gewalt, Ausschluss und strukturellem Rassismus geprägt ist wie von überlebensgroßem Talent, kreativer Wut und einer visionären Bühnenpräsenz. (ARD, Neu)

  3. #FunkyFriday Just heard synth legend #MartynWare telling legendary #Minneapolis funkateers #JimmyJam + #TerryLewis that #AlexanderONeal’s “Criticize” is among their finest productions. Jam + Lewis corrected him: the song was produced, co-written and mostly performed by #TheTime’s drummer #JellybeanJohnson. Respect! 🎶👍😁 #Music #Funk #RhythmAndBlues #Soul #1980s #ElectronicallyYours youtube.com/watch?v=7gK5iPbd7H

  4. This song was #1 on the Billboard chart on this day, November 22, in 1986.

    I was sixteen.

    I don't have words to describe what this musical arrangement meant to me at sixteen, and continues to mean.

    There is a "bell-like" motif in the instrumentation at :58 and 1:03 that hits my heart in an indescribable way.
