Useful algorithms
I don’t generally like online algorithms that decide for you what you want to see (Facebook and Twitter, I’m looking at you). But I find the radio one Tidal plays once your playlist or album has finished to be a very good stab at what I want to keep on listening to. I can let them run for hours without getting bored. I’ve got a contemporary jazz one going now. There’s a bit of repetition, but I can live with that.
🎵I’ve just been listening to a couple of old Jeff Beck albums, ‘Blow By Blow’ and ‘Wired’. I’d forgotten how jazz rock they were. Wired, in particular, has a real Mahavishnu Orchestra influence with Jan Hammer and Narada Micheal Walden playing on it.
Ruth Is Stranger Than Richard
🎵It’s been a long time since I listened to this, and like many of my old records, it’s hard to understand why I left it so long.
It’s quirky and engaging. Jazzy and a bit sad in places.
