This is where I should have entered

"Ben Webster at Ronnie Scots 1964"

I still find myself hitting wrong threads and even in correct threads I tend to hit the wrong page.
You'll just have to put up with me because i dont intend to pack in or you could hire a hit man?

You and I will have to start a new club John. We could call it the C.R.A.F.T. club.

Just burned and listened to my first Esbjorn Svensson CD “Good morning soho” at first I was not keen but by the end of the CD I was thoroughly enjoying it.
Some observations
Track 4. The Wraith, a sound of running water, what instrument was used for this? You can get some thing like that on the Bass but never that realistic! Was it a synthasiser?
The CD was d/l mp3@320k but was good enough for jazz the double bass sounded great and he is a very good player “Dan Burgland” but the musical construction of some pieces was not IMHO worthy of the musicians being a conglomeration of short phrases and weird sound effects why??? There are so many good tunes around that they could improvise around, I am tempted to say (its jazz but not as we know it) but I won’t . T10 The face of love was built on basic rhythms and riffs with the Bongos and I loved it. T11 ‘Reminiscence of a soul’ was excellent very complicated meters from the percussion which included 6/8 4/4 7/8
I finished up a convert to this Trio and can’t wait to listen to the 2nd CD “Viaticum”

@Colin - Esbjorn Svensson's music is 'edgy' but I find it very appealing for some reason. His untimely and tragic death was a great loss for the Jazz world. Enjoy "Viaticum"

Best,
