Seems the backlog of Amazon.UK orders all got processed by UK Customs at the same time being held up through Christmas, since a bumper bundle came today:

Jeff Babko's Mondo Trio (Abstract Logix Records). Great enthusiasm for this record according to write-ups at Fusenet, plus achieving "a record of 2007" accolade from Downbeat magazine. I would suggest in the territory of Herbie Hancock's Headhunters and MMW: jazz fusion with a strong funk/groove. Babko the keyboard player, uses the Hammond sparingly but when it come out, you'll know about it. The rest of trio features Jeff Coffin's woodwind (some Bernie Maupin references) and drums from the much-in-demand Vinnie Colaiuta.

Just checked this one out:
The newest project involving Gary Willis and Kirk Covington from Tribal Tech, teamed up together with Saxophonist Llibert Fortuny famed from the Spanish Jazz scene. This stuff is excellent, mainly improvised experimental Jazz/Rock with a great sound overall. Displays excellent texturing and grooves and are definitely recommended if you are into Tribal Tech or Willis' solo stuff!

A couple of promos from out of the blue awaited me in the radio station this lunchtime. A New York City based guitarist, Americo-Pakistani Rezi Abbasi, somehow came to know about the show and has forwarded his two latest albums: Snake Charmer and Bazaar
Half way through the latter and with my first listen, I can say what a great piece on indo-jazz fusion but not really like anything gone before (IMHO the closest comparable musician is Fareed Hoque, in both his own band and with Garaj Mahal). The music of the sub-continent is there but not layered on nor in yer face in the fashion of Shakti (and I love them).

Where do these rather odd titles for album titles, ECM are well known to employ, come from?

I listened to Reggie Lucas`Survival Themes album last night. That`s right the guy who produced Madonna`s fist album. Anyone know if this has ever come out on CD. My LP copy is pretty hacked.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
