Jonathan Harvey - his Buddhist inspired triptych: Body Mandala, Speakings, ...towards a Pure Land. At Edinburgh Festival last night. BBC SSO with Ivan Volkov and Boulez's IRCAM bods on 'computer music design'. Fascinating.

V/A - Psychedelic Jazz. One of those cheapo comps that I bought not expecting an awful lot. It's brilliant. Bunch of stuff from late 60s/early 70s including Roy Ayers, Don Sebesky, Gabor Szabo, The Dave Pike Set (nope me neither) and Pierre Henry! Best £3 spent in a long time.

Others:

The Red Krayola - God Bless The Red Krayola and All Who Sail With It. International Artists Reissue remastered by Sonic Boom.

Yo la Tengo - And then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out

Kevin Drumm - Land of Lurches

Franca Sacchi - En

Carol Robinson - Billows

Circle X - Celestial

Don Cherry/Ed Blackwell - El Corazon

Eliane Radigue Transamorem-Transmortem

Marc Ribot - Asmodeus Book of Angels Vol 7

Miles Davis Stadthalle, Vienna 1973

Patti Smith - Horses & Radio Ethiopia

Ron Carter/Jim Hall - Alone Together

Have a great week all.

Not normally a J*zz bod, but I love Gabor Szabo and Pierre Henry's Psyche Rock. Not to mention the Driscoll / Auger / Trinity version of Season of the Witch that's on that. May well have to pick that up, thanks for the tip.

Have you heard this?: Gabor Szabo - Three King Fishers (1968). A classic.
