Esbjorn Svensson - Good Morning Susie at the mo - after From Gagarin's Point of View, Viaticum, Strange Place For Snow, Tuesday Wonderland, Somewhere Else Before, etc...

Why is it I can listen to EST all morning and love it but can't find a single other piano player I can do that with? I can manage Keith Jarrett for a while and one or two others but there's something about Mr Svensson's playing that really gets me.

Then the bugger went and drowned hisself, so there's no more. Anyone got any suggestions for similar?

Yes, it was a tragic loss...

Talking of piano players who died too young, I am just this minute listening to the sublime and single-minded Glenn Gould playing - and humming along to! - Bach's French Suites...

Portishead - Dummy

Morphine's latest - At Your Service.

Mark Sandman's been dead for 10 years now so they've released a double cd of live and alternate versions that haven't seen the light of day before.

Needless to say, it's utterly f'ing brilliant.

For all fans of low rock.

JJ Grey and Mofro

Southern funk band. I'm listening to live recordings on the Internet Music Archive.

Iron and Wine, Around the Well. For a collection of B-sides and rarities, it puts many other bands' best offerings to shame. There are some beautiful songs on it.

Nina Simone on Youtube. Brilliant.

'It makes me glad
You're gonna have things that I never had
When out of all men's hearts
All hate is hurled
You're going to live
In a better world
Brown baby'

Wondering how long I can get away with playing it this loud before someone suggests I turn it down

and now the rather better Morrison Hotel.

The way "Peace Frog" blends into "Blue Sunday" is magical.

Biosphere - Patashnik (perfect lunch hour listening)

Is Dropsonde on a par with his other ambient stuff (Cirque, Substrata)? I've had it in my eMusic 'Save For Later' list for ages.

The Extraordinary Garden- Charles Tenet, for the last hour.

Now about to have a burst of A Foreigner No Longer by King Britt. A great tune, but a shameless rip off of B movie by Gil Scott Heron.

Ella Fitzgerald - Everytime we say Goodbye.

She is so f*cking brilliant. I don't have a bad singing voice (being Welsh and all) but I cannot even remotely compete with such a wonderful sound

The Smiths 'What difference does it make' live at the BBC. Johnny Marr is really quite something isn't he?
