For a bit of fun, make a list as a challenge (if you enjoy maths) using the length of a 45 min LP, and create a 'Best Of' or a 'Collection' for one of/several of your fav artists. (It's tough, coz jazz can often be suited to a double LP collection) I'll start with one - a Herbie Hancock - a collection of his Post Bop material Herbie Hancock - Post Bop Collection Oliloqui Valley Maiden Voyage Cantaloupe Island Mimosa Goodbye to Childhood Sonrisa (maybe this is closer to 3rd stream in some ways, but it's in there now!) 41:11 (the nerd within me added up the exact time to be sure) ------------- We are men of action.

^ fixed it - I must of forgot to hit 'paste' before 'post.'  I found this quite hard, but fun, as I had to cut at least 4 pieces that I wanted in there. Might try a 'Funk' Hancock next.

I'm thinking a representation of Miles' experiments with static music forms, something that has always interested me. I probably won't be able to put it together till much later though, busy day today and music playing tonight as well.

Sounds great, looking forward to that area of Miles' output. Shame about the busy day but the gig sounds good, I haven't played live for about two years now, which is awful! ------------- We are men of action.

I don't have much choice, its a crucial part of my income, at least its a fun band. What instrument do you play? I have you figured to be a geetar picker.

I felt that you expected this as live set list. Not an LP.  |

Getting paid to play in a fun band sounds ace, though - what's your set like in that band? I meddle with guitar, and played some bass in my old metal band (usually when we went to the studio) - but I was actually the 'singer.' Though I wasn't skilled by any stretch, unless it came to the harsh end of the spectrum. I'm currently learning piano but holy crap it is tough. Wish I'd had lessons when I was a kid, so I'd have had a head start!
That would be an amazing live set, I'd love to see something like that!  And then maybe the second set of the night could be the funk side of his work.------------- We are men of action.

We play Memphis bar music, 70s rock, pop and RnB. Usually I prefer playing in funk or funk-jazz bands, but I need to go where the money is.

^ Cool, that still sounds like a lot of fun, and as you say, where the money is, absolutely. Ok, one more for now - still so hard to limit myself to 45 minutes: Herbie Hancock - Some Funk Just Around the Corner Lil' Brother Butterfly Sly Hang Up you Hang Ups (Live VSOP) ------------- We are men of action.
