Got two new albums on cassette!

The first is from Lauffey, and her album is “Bewitched: The Goddess Edition”. This is some great vocal jazz.

The other is the synthwave album “Cosmic” by local Vancouver artist FM Attack.

@atomicpoet Oooh, you said Lauffey and jazz in the same sentence! Now you have to listen to Adam Neeley on the subject (sorry, I don't make the rules)

@danciruli I already saw that. Frankly, I don’t care. I have no interest in gatekeepers being gatekeepers.

@atomicpoet I agree. I DID find the historical context interesting, and I learned a bunch watching it. The labels don't matter; I think her vocals are fantastic.

@danciruli I think Miles Davis’ opinion on jazz speaks volumes:

“Jazz is only a white man’s word he gave to music he couldn’t play. You know, so we don’t use that word.”

He didn’t like to call his own music jazz. He preferred the term “social music”.

@gatewayy They never stopped being made.
