Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers.

Cooler than is actually possible.

Nice tune - There's a very good vocal version by Vikki Carr -then perhaps not your kind of cool!

I know the music
I'm not 100% convinced after listening as it seems to miss the opportunities offered by 22 tone ET

This works better to my ears

I think there is often a 'problem' with music in differing tonalities when the form or genre of the music is so rooted in equal temperament that it often does sound 'out of tune' when played in the other temperament. (if that clumsy sentence makes sense?)

That makes sense. But aren't our ( most of us most of the time) ears almost hard wired for equal temperament, even for baroque, for instance?

Anyway, the Branca does serve as a great comparison.
Perhaps the Sevish might be more " accessible" for a different audience. I enjoyed it anyway , even if it doesn't explore the possibilities so fully as the Branca.

I feel like I am walking into a musical minefield here......

Can't believe how time has flown. I bought this LP in the boiling hot summer 0f 1976.

No minefield matey

I don't think our ears are "hard wired" but we are conditioned to think of it as "normal".

Svesh sounds a bit like "Squarepusher plays Harry Parch" to me (which is no bad thing)

I bought Exodus in the week it came out, a year after Rastaman Vibration. Two great Bob Marley albums.

Natural Mystic is one of my all time favourite BM numbers.

FLORENCE + THE MACHINE
How Big How Blue How Beautiful ( 2015 )

Recently released third studio album - half of a very good album here I think - not as good as the first two albums.
