Happy New Year & welcome to “Now Playing Some Jazz [2026]”
Please post your listening choices here…
“Cast Your Fate to the Wind” is one of those songs that almost everyone knows the melody of but not the name of the song. Without lyrics most people are completely lost. Anyway it’s a great song and album, thanks for posting.
I’m sorry I can’t tell you where my albums are located (besides on my hard drive) (Tidal, Qoburz). I do have an account, but I don’t use it…
Actually, Roon shows me “duplicates” when things are found on Qoburz, but not here.
Two new releases from Resonance Records that are NOT available on either Tidal or Qobuz.
Rahsaan Roland Kirk - Vibrations in the Village- Live at the Village Gate (1963)
Rahsaan Roland Kirk - Seek & Listen- Live at the Penthouse (1967)
Not sure if its allowed but the NYT had an interesting article on jazz and the top 100. There are artists on the list I have not listened too and albums I expected to be on the list that weren’t but its an interesting 2 lists and read (top 100 and 10). https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/05/arts/music/jazz-where-to-start.html?unlocked_article_code=1.CVA.Ix1R.Odc6Apax6Y13&smid=url-share
