I expected this release to have more than merely nine RYM ratings, including mine, considering Cornershop's next release has over 300.Cornershop - When I Was Born For The 7th Time (1997)
P. S. Never mind. The same release has over 180 ratings in another format.

I chose this release for the infinitely more attractive album cover!

That's the cover on my CD. I didn't know there was another.

One of my favorite blogs (http://bebopwinorip.blogspot.com/) has posted a bunch of this series but not the lid lifter. So I compiled it from my own collection. Lots of fun King R&B sides here, familiar and obscure. The biggest rarity is probably the original version of "Last Kiss" penned by Wayne Cochran, "the King Of White Soul".

I never got this one back in the day. Maybe it's time for another spin.

We wish you - or it - good luck.

Jesu - Terminus (2020)
After listening to "Prince: The Story of 1999" a short while ago, I queued up "The Story of Sign O' The Times". Today, I was out for a couple of hours doing errands and I binged through the final 3 or 4 episodes, hating to stop just now when I pulled in the driveway. There are only 10 minutes to go in the final ep, but I can't listen right now. Listening to these podcasts drive me crazy with wanting to hear Prince albums from that era and simply any Prince. There's a part where they talk about Bonnie Rait hanging out with Prince at Paisley Park and the two of them collaborating on music that was apparently never released. The cuts they played were awesome!
I listened to SotT a few days ago, so I'd figured I listen to another Prince album covered in this podcast. This is the final album of the Revolution era.
Prince - Parade (1986)
Another album I appreciate tons more than I did when it was originally released.
Something I didn't know about Prince was that the Revolution was more or less growing apart during the tour. Everyone knew it, but no one really acknowledged it, not even to themselves. Prince increased the size of his touring band during this time, picking up horn players from Atlanta and other members (Sheila E among them) from the San Francisco area. The members of the Revolution didn't always feel comfortable with new members coming in and some of the new members getting extra attention from Prince. During the final concert, which took place in Japan, Prince destroyed a guitar. He wasn't a guitar destroyer like some other rock artists, and the Revolution members took note of this as an ominous sign. He then fired half the Revolution and told the other half he understood if they felt like leaving because of the changes. Dr Fink and a couple of others remained, and Prince started a new era of growth that kicked off with Sign O' The Times and his new band The New Power Generation.
Okay, now I gotta find some Jazz podcasts like this. I wanna hear about Freddie Hubbard, and George Duke, and Woody Shaw, and Mingus, and more.

A female Jazz supergroup. This is not a gimmick. This is some great music!

I have heard of the first two listed on the front cover. Sounds promising.
Is it on Spotify?
Sadly, I do not know.
JazzySon and I saw Anat Cohen a couple of years ago. I was surprised by how hip and energetic her show (and her) was. She was the spitball of energy, mixing sounds and genres and just blowing her ass off. It was great. I'd definitely go see her again.
I've heard a good bit of Renee Rosnes because she played with the SFJazz Collective for a few albums. She has a fantastic touch.
I have an album or two by Salvant and like them.
Every one of them sounds great here.
