Sand Ida: My soul kitchen [Vinyl LP + Download]

180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>Having had major success with the 1959 LP 'Time Out', it is no surprise that Dave Brubeck decided on a followup which came in the shape of the 1961 album 'Time Further Out'. Once again, Dave plays about with various unusual time signatures, The album tracks are arranged in increasing order of time signatures, starting with It's a Raggy Waltz in 3/4 and closing with Blue Shadows in the Street in 9/4. 'Time Further Out' was generally considered a worthy successor to 'Time Out', peaking at Number 8 on the Billboard album chart. Dave Brubeck has left a considerable legacy to succeeding generations. He was determined to synthesise all that he felt was good in music, and he always did so with a touch of humour.

180 gram blå vinyl.

180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>John William Coltrane is today recognised as one of the most influential figures in the history of jazz. Yet when he first appeared in the ranks of Dizzy Gillespie's orchestra at the end of the 1940s, no-one would have predicted this diffident young man in his early twenties would, within a decade, become an iconic musician dedicated to taking music into hitherto undreamt-of dimensions. This album captures John Coltrane at the peak of his solo career, though of course, there was more significant music to come.
