Playlist, Week of 2021-08-01



The Duke at Fargo is one of the greatest live recordings of all time... it's a miracle that it even exists... unlike the several airshots that exist from the Blanton-Webster version of the band, Fargo captures the band while they're stretching out and getting loose (while being tight at the same time!)... it's a joy to hear...   Beyond this playlist, a log of my weekly listening, I also have the Magic Jukebox, which I listen to mostly during my daily walks and while dishwashing... I usually just put it on shuffle, but lately I have alternated between two massive playlists I put together, one for "late" (post-1947) Duke Ellington and one for Guided By Voices and associated Robert Pollard projects... Keeps me going...
