NO ROOM FOR SQUARES SESSION 87 WITH VINTAGE VINYL AT MILK READING, 5/8/15, ALWAYS ON THE FIRST WEDNESDAY EACH MONTH.
LISTEN TO THE RECORDING ON MIXCLOUD-JIM B. DONOVAN.
I JUST WISH THERE COULD BE SOME CONSISTENCY WITH THIS SESSION, BUT WITH ATTENDEES CHOOSING TUNES IT DOES VARY THE FLOW. I INTENDED TO START WITH SOME JAZZY HIP HOP, BUT WAS ASKED FOR SOME LATIN SO DID JUST THAT. WE WERE CHATTING ABOUT DICK MORRISSEY SO ON GOES THE GREATEST LITTLE SOUL BAND IN THE WORLD THAT HE PLAYED ON. AT THE END A TRACK FROM KIND OF BLUE WAS CHOSEN FOR ME, AND SOUNDED GREAT, SO WHAT DO I KNOW!
A FEW SIGHTLY JAZZY ONES FROM CILLA WERE PLAYED FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, AND A SUPERB CUT FROM 1957, TONY BENNETT WITH ART BLAKEY.. WELDON IRVINE I HAVE NOT PLAYED FOR AGES SO ON IT WENT. THE LONG TRACK FOR ME TO HAVE A CHAT WAS CARMEN MCRAE, AGAIN!
NO CHAT FROM ME, AND ONE SLIPUP WHERE I POPPED TO THE LOO AND MISJUDGED ROY AYERS FINISHING. DO NOT FORGET YOU CAN PAUSE THESE RECORDINGS NOW ON MIXCLOUD AND RETURN TO IT WHERE YOU LEFT OFF-ENJOY-Jim
