Records you might like

OK, summer holiday is over for me, and here are some of the records I listened to. Want to check them out?

Atlanter: "Vidde" (Jansen Plateproduksjon 2013). Desert blues, delta blues and kraut (what??) from Jens Carelius, Arild Hammerø, Jonas Barsten Johnsen and Morten Kvam. One track at the bottom of the blog post.

Ellerry Eskelin: "Mirage" (Clean Feed 2013). Great music from Ellerry Eskelin (sax), Michael Formanek (b) and Susan Alcorn (pedal steel g).

Panzerpappa: "Astromalist" (Rune 2012). I have forgotten to mention the "new" Rune Grammofon album from Norway´s best Canterbury influenced band. Until now! Nice!

Petter O Hanna: "Rendition of a whisper" (Gigafon 2013). Strange and beautiful from Petter Vågan and Hanna Gjermundrød.

Akira Sakata and Nobuyasy Furuya: "Live at The Bitches Brew" (Solid Records 2011). Hot stuff! Any experts on Sakata visiting? I really don´t know where I should start in his discography. As mentioned earlier, I heard him for the first time at Moldejazz this summer, playing a fantastic concert with Johan Berthling and Paal Nilssen-Love.

Colin Stetson: "New history warfare vol.3: Too see more light" (Constellation 2013). Sax magic. And Justin Vernon from Bon Iver is on it too. Video on top here.

Trespass Trio + Joe McPhee: "Human Encore" (Clean Feed 2013). Oh my, beautiful and touching music. Will buy the two previous Trespass Trio albums (Küchen, Zanussi, Strid) right away!

Chris Watson: "In St Cuthbert's Time" (Touch 2013). Experience nature from your own sofa.
