I played The Jewel In The Lotus yesterday and I really got a Harold Budd with Marion Brown vibe listening to it. It came before Budd's album and I can't help but wonder... I'll play Gnu High later today. Such a great album. I bought Pharoah when it came out and was blown away how valuable it is. Damn near $1000!. I had no idea.
A wonderful ECM segment. Thanks. So many memories of artists I found during those early ECM years. Bittersweet for me as the only in-person ECM lover I had was my younger brother who died this year. As I watched it was impossible to not think, Oh man, I gotta call A and tell him about this album we missed. Nonetheless, so wonderful to discover a couple of albums we totally missed. I'll enjoy in A's honour.
Love ECM. They were the label that got me into Jazz. I had no idea jazz could be that ethereal till I heard them. They hold a special place in my heart.
Thanks dereck killer ecms to round it off!!! Recently got that bobo stenson underwear plus ravas the plot. The plot is amazing. hope you have a good Sunday too. Big Hi from Melbourne Australia
More great ECM! Grazing Dreams is still missing from my collection. I wasted the whole day yesterday taking the bus up to Tunnel Records in SF. Couldn’t find anything I really wanted. There was a copy of Arthur Brown’s Kingdom Come that I almost bought but the vinyl turned out to be beat to hell. Similarly, there was a pink rim Island copy of Here Come the Warm Jets with a really clean cover, but the vinyl was scratched up. And there was a copy of Ash Ra Tempel Seven Up on the wall, but that was way out of my price range…$225, and I’m almost surprised it wasn’t more. First time I’ve ever left that place empty handed.
I was hoping we would get more ECM 😎....just had a feeling you would share more....after your video yesterday I pulled Gary Burton and Chick “Crystal Silence”
I love the Ziggy Stardust OST the energy is just so right on, and it's everything I love about GLAM era Bowie. It's Punk with a Rocky Horror Picture Show vibe & feel to it that's just irresistible. Also in regards to Hip Hop, ironically I just repurchased a bunch of stuff on the Sugar Hill Records label. I remembered I had the box-set on CD so snapped it up again with a bunch of vinyl. For those who don't know, all of the music on their releases is an actual band called "Wood, Brass & Steel" after they were sued by CHIC for using their song "Good Times" on "Rapper's Delight." So your getting Rap the way it was not only meant to be heard, but should be heard.
Hey Dereck, You mentioned DANNY O'KEEFE. A great singer-songwriter unknown by way to many people in my opinion.Had quite a few well written LPS. That LP BREEZY STORIES which had MAGDELENA also had my favorite ANGEL SPREAD YOUR WINGS. I often feel the urge to pump the brakes on record buying for awhile, but I always remind myself that the music on these records are like vitamins for the mind, and the mind has power over the body. So I look at my records as being important to keeping me healthy in mind, body and soul. Take care Dereck
Hey Dereck. Fantastic review of the ECM catalogue! That one was really important to let people know about this great label. Maybe you could do a more in-depth review of Abercrombie's Timeless, one of the most influential albums from ECM and in jazz history which sat the new standard for the famous ECM sound. Also a mention of Jack DeJohnnette's fantastic Special Edition albums shouldn't be missing.
Oh, just remember I once even recorded at Tonstudio Bauer in Ludwigsburg. You know about that one, don't you? It was like being at the holy grail of ECM. Jaco recorded Bright Size Life there with Pat Metheny. Those were the times!
I respect your. Preference for sound from musical instruments. As a vocalist I was originally thrown off by sort of disinterest in vocals. Do I totally get it though! I also am very happy to see that people are celebrating fifty years of hip hop. I'm very selective with my hip hop preferring old school, But I really do like the genre & think it has a place in music history.
i cannot find anything by Derek Fisher-psychedelic situation CD or vinyl or web purchase Discogs has no infos on this "Morells" do a song called "psychedelic situation" im not sure if that is related? Where can i get this cd/artist?
My first ecm record was in 1977
It was John Abercrombie Timeless, from there I was hooked. Cheers 🍻

Being a casual ECM nutt myself these videos really butter my biscuit, thank you sir.

Can't wait for your LPD interview. I love them so much.
Thanks dereck killer ecms to round it off!!! Recently got that bobo stenson underwear plus ravas the plot. The plot is amazing. hope you have a good Sunday too. Big Hi from Melbourne Australia

Cool shirt, Brand X!
Ooooooo yeahhhhhhhhhh I dig dig that Meters album!!! Awesome group!

I was hoping we would get more ECM 😎....just had a feeling you would share more....after your video yesterday I pulled Gary Burton and Chick “Crystal Silence”
Such a great album. I have a plastic mouse living on my turntable called Señor Mouse.
@@michaelpdawson 😳🤭🤣great track great album!! Cheers Michael!
The Bowie matches are a fun little souvenir. Posters are always cool but theres only so much wall space.
Loved the ECM video Dereck. Have a great Sunday.

Your knowledge of every record you buy will enlighten somebody eventually, junkies only buy addictions.
I have to watch back to your ECM video. Thanks!!
Love all of these records, at least the ones I've heard. I'll have to get some these others ECM albums. (Like Brand X shirt too!)

Used to have that Breezy Stories.
Watching before leaving for lunch....ok I am watching
Edward Ka Spel is kind and funny. Hope you get to listen to Hallway of the Gods.
Listening to it right now.

What an honor to have recorded there.
@@dereckvonYes indeed.
Richie Wise (dust) was co-producer on the first two kiss albums

Hi Dereck
Fat city vinyl did an interesting video on the early days of rap and hiphop
i cannot find anything by Derek Fisher-psychedelic situation
CD or vinyl or web purchase
Discogs has no infos on this
"Morells" do a song called "psychedelic situation"
im not sure if that is related?
Where can i get this cd/artist?
I don't know that he has any. I know him as a collector.
@@dereckvon Sorry,i thought he was a recording musician
Also not a big fan of hip hop. I'm much more impressed by musicians who can express their feelings without any words.
