OK, I've mentioned this before, but the xBloom Studio coffee machine is *great*.
It can use "pods" (which are not what you think) - little composable basket-and-filters with actual beans that you buy - OR you can use your own beans in a separate basket. There's a special tea basket and mode […]

Tortoise - Touch
I realized that I posted about TNT when Touch was released, but I never posted about Touch itself.
Despite the decade-ish gap, Tortoise continues with their post-rock, kinda-jazz, kinda-experimental, always enjoyable music.
Here's hoping the next […]

A very 100th Birthday to both Bang & Olufsen and Luxman.
So many things have changed over the years, it's quite an achievement to be a going concern all these years later.
Luxman made my first "serious" integrated amp and (separate) tuner, and B&O makes a lot of my stuff, so it's a good time […]

The Clientele - The Violet Hour
Finally re-released first album from Britain-based dream/chamber-pop band.
Nice to revisit after a long time—chill reverb and finger-picked guitar as fall goes to winter.

Warren Zevon - Excitable Boy My original is from ‘78, but I'm currently listening to the new MFSL 45-RPM version. DSD step or not, I think this version sounds awfully good (as does the original). The first two Zevon albums are great, with excellent songwriting (OK, “Nightime in the Switching Yard" is filler), playing, and production. The 45RPM version means more flipping, which changes the flow (but the pause after Veracruz remains, as it should). But it sounds great. #vinyl #nowPlaying

Alas, didn't make it to Slowboat this year (we went to the Half Note one night), so I figured I'd re-listen to this double LP.

Attached: 1 image Ryo Fukui Trio at the Slowboat 2004 On the 20th anniversary of Fukui's Slowboat club in Sapporo, a fan and recording enthusiast captured this set featuring Fukui (piano), Benisuke Saki (bass), and Yoshihito Eto (drums). The fan may have been an amateur/hobby recordist, but he did a great job capturing this joyful, celebratory performance...and it's been unearthed for us to enjoy on this, the 30th anniversary. I'm looking forward to visting later this year. #Nowplaying #vinyl #jazz #RyoFukui

Attached: 1 image The Great Jazz Trio - At the Village Vanguard Since I posted that YouTube video from The Tracking Angle comparing a $350K turntable to a $50K turntable (with a $100K arm, $90K phono preamp and $12K cartridge), I decided to grab a copy of that album from Japan and compare those recordings to my own turntables. Impressions to follow. The actual LP is great - a terrific set by an acclaimed trio, beautifully recorded. #nowplaying #jazz #vinyl
