The exit of Waxy Maxy

[Globaltruth]

Good to hear Max back.

A slight overdose of Seeger's but that Tony Allen album needs to be investigated further (best this century? really? oh)\

Here's a Spotify link to that Tunde Jegede album though...

I did love the Tony Allen track, Global, and Tunde Jegede was standout. Excellent to have Max back around though I did enjoy last Wednesday's Luscy episode which was a surprise.

That was a mighty fine show indeed. Thanks BBC!

Tuesday - in which Max quite enjoys an irrepressible guest and joins in with JC's & GT's (ably aided by the enigmatic WF) quest for ultimate accordion..

Yes indeed it was, and Max is always welcome, enthusiastic guests and all, but the question doing the rounds is where's Fiona...have I missed something, but she ain't been around in yonks.

Well, she was being talked about as possible director of the Molde Jazz Festival, Norway - mid Sept.

that's how I read my superb Google translation anyway:

Fiona Talkington from BBC3 in England. Have had curator mission including point in Estonia and National Jazz Scene in Oslo. Searched the position as Anders Eriksson was

What a wonderful gospel cover of 'Times They are A-Changin'' that Max played on Tuesday - by the Brothers and Sisters, a bunch of LA session singers and produced by Lou Adler in the late 60s and apparently 'lost' since then - well now it's found and I for one am mighty glad.

Rather enjoyed the half-hour mashed-up Temporal LJ special that Max served up for just after the bells.

Well for me it was a choice between R. Dawson or S. Lee - both of whom seem to have bewitched, bothered and bewildered MR. Personally I prefer R. Dawson - maybe biased because he's a fellow Sacred Harp fan.

Fine Max show last night and featuring Alisdair Roberts' 'Waxwing' by Olivia Chaney - Radcliffe must have been listening 'cos he played it too, and no complaint from me - she's a great singer. She did a great song 'Ballade' a year or so back.

Really enjoyed the Annie Whitehead and Co tribute to Robert Wyatt that Max played last night!

Brilliant OP, and lovely to hear that the password has been safely decrypted. Wonderful bit of Ken with his sixties realism hat on. What a fine maker of images he was. Look forward to getting the time to watch Bert and Davey in the near future - looks excellent!

Well, not often that happens but Max on Tues was pretty poor - a huge puff piece for Latitude Fest. Yes to Sun-Ra ( The Arkestra is appearing at a festival here in England http://lunarfestival.co.uk/ plus Tinariwen btw) and Yes to DVV (aka Captain Beefheart) but to dedicate the majority of this programme and the next and the next to a single festival seems a little indulgent. I shall instead listen to this https://open.spotify.com/user/clarea...DSuXKJ9m5O11JB, a bit like a Words and Music version of LJ.

Work gets pretty busy towards the end of the school term, but with them on holiday (and us non-teachers not), it's pleasantly quiet and I caught up with the paperwork, and more importantly with a couple of Max LJs. Really enjoyed Tuesday's show last week, in particular the Warsaw Village Band and a bit of Zappa among plenty others. Hopefully a quiet uninterrupted week of paperwork lies ahead with not too many complaints from colleagues.
