Today’s listening: groovy organ meets tenor meets overdriven guitar. Great band interplay 🤘🏻 @trishclowes not sure of the label! #jazz #nowplaying

Today’s listening: what stands out is MODERN this sounds from back in 1964. The way Elvin plays around the beat, the dense harmonies. It could have easily been made in 2024 and not sound out of place. @bluenoterecords #jazz #nowplaying #jazzmusic

@SirWayne01 Except Snyder is saying the world views SUPERMAN an infallible, godlike figure. You can tell that from the cinematography: it’s entirely from the view of the trapped: When there’s no
Hope left, there’s Superman.

@WeirdScienceDC Swamp Thing from the New 52 was one of my favourite books!

Today’s listening: If you need a way to get your non-jazz friends to dip their toe in the jazz ocean, here’s a great way to do it 🤘🏻

@JoJoFromJerz …and since when does Marco Rubio have any expertise on virology and communicable disease?

[Hipster Doofus @jazzordietrying]

@JoJoFromJerz I’m sure it’ll miraculously be gone by Easter, just like Covid was

[Hipster Doofus @jazzordietrying]

Today’s listening: Israeli jazz that is so good about folding in traditional sounds and cadences, while being just “jazzy” enough. It’s an interesting listen. #jazz #worldjazz #todaysjazzlistening

Jazz heads: Check out my Jazz Roulette Substack! I choose a Jazz album at random- listen to it and review it not as a pro critic or academic, but a s guy who *really* likes to listen to jazz ☺️

@MadderGamer @SepzenoOfficial It’s fine to like both, but using it as some sort of cudgel to bash a new movie 40 years later is just silly

Today’s listening: it’s Bud Powell’s Birthday! Happy 102, Bud #jazz #jazzpiano #jazzmusic

Trigeminal Neuralgia: 10/10 would not recommend 🧠 ⚡️

@REALBundlicious What are we looking at?

[Hipster Doofus @jazzordietrying]

Today’s listening: recorded today in 1968.
You can absolutely hear the shift into his electronic albums - In a Silent Way and Bitch’s Brew. The Harmony and grooves are freer without it veering into “Free Jazz.”

Today’s listening: Another album from the 21st century! TBH, I can’t decide yet if I like it or not yet. It’s different. Certainly requires more listens! Ping Emma Rawicz- I can’t find if she has a Twitter handle! #jazz #jazzX #jazzmusic
