Back when the world was still real and before we descended into this wack-ass timeline due to bad karma or something.

[axolotl]

Bill Bruford's Earthworks (1987)



Jazz Fusion, Jazz-Rock

 

[Ojai Sam]

Various Artists - The Rough Guide To The Music Of Central Asia (2005)

A long dormant listening project comes back to life with a bang (or at least an Uzbek ululation).

Is that tongue-in-cheek?

Tom Waits- Rain Dogs (1985)


First listen to anything of his.

Nino Rota- La Dolce Vita (1960)

Is that tongue-in-cheek?

Sorry Axo, but I have to call a glottal stop to this line of inquiry.

Oh.... you and your hyper-bolus. It's just plenty Okay Chorale music.

The Fireman ~ Rushes (1998)



Ambient, House

Honestly, I had no idea that Macca had anything to do with this until I had fully listened to it and (later) went into RYM. It's pretty solid, IMHO.

V/A ~ Femmes de Paris - Groovy Sounds from the 60's - Vol.2 (2002)



Like a Playboy Nickylist.

But, I may have that backwards.

The Fresh and Onlys ~ self-titled (2009)



Read the RYM reviews. They won't tell you a thing about this band or this album.

Not that I just did, either. I did enjoy it upon flisten, tho'.

Theo Croker - Star People Nation (2019)

Repeated refrain on the first song: "You remind me of a Buick LeSabre ... cool, smooth." That cracks me up every time I hear it. Croker is too young to remember when Buick's were kind of cool. I wonder how he came up with that line."

Hank Mobley - Another Workout (recorded 1961, released 1985)
