Playlist, Week of 2020-01-19

Arrival just keeps getting better and better every time I hear it... the beautiful vocals are offset by the abstract electronics settings, the intense bass clarinet, and Mats Gustafsson's incredible sax playing... some of the most abstract and moving playing I've heard from him... just stunning... Meanwhile, getting my progrocks off with Henry Cow, Gentle Giant, and the Muffins... god bless the seventies!
