Our own Dick Heath's ALT2 Radio show Returns

After the violin week, the only theme this coming Thursday night is a catch up
on promos received and a heap of purchases made in the last few weeks. So thanks
to Moonjune Records, for supplying me with more of the Italian successor (?) to
Bobby Ferrin and a PMG rhythm section in different company. Jens Johansson
demonstrating his keyboard mastery on a couple from Mastermind's back catalogue.
And within the week of its release, former drummer with EST, Magnus Ostrom's
album Thread of Life gets sampled. The no-prize quiz: spot the connection
between two unlikely tunes. BTW spot too, the former Shell Chemicals executive.

Hi Dick,

Good evening

Still have ice and snow in places, lakes are under ice, but during daytime temperature is positive and there are lot of sunny days, so spring is not too far

Can't make its mind up here - warm for a couple of day and then like today, chilly

snobb wrote: Tonbruken was more rock oriented album (not much jazz at all), Magnus Ostrom's debut is closer to ESP music, nu jazz on the edge with new age I would say

I think you got it - this one is more appealing to my ear.

Your today's mix of genres is excellent for my ears

Good evening all

(time to change that sig link Dick...)

Good evening

I've had this album flagged up in my Amazon wish-list for 18 months, but only recently scrolling through I reminded myself to buy it. Less ambient nu fusion than Molvaer. I also forget what other Aarset album I bought 3 years ago,but it wasn' t compelling enough for me to rush and buy more quickly. This  one does work however.
