Today I went to Zulu, probably the best record store in Vancouver. I ended up with four CDs, all one dollar each. Cheap, but with outstanding quality. First off I found a CD from a group/collective I’ve been interested in for many years but have never come across: Hagans. The album is called Animation/Imagination and contained the title track that I have been so amazed by for so long. If the term “future jazz” exists it can definitely be applied to these guys. The album is released by legendary Blue Note. Click here for a listen: http://www.amazon.com/Animation-Imagination-Tim-Hagans/dp/B00000HYBM
I am right now listening to an amazing compilation that I also picked up, “Space” a mix album by Kenny Hawkes. If there is anything that gets me going it’s House music from 1994-1998. Why doesn’t today’s House music have that feeling anymore.
I aso picked up Micheal J. Schumacher’s “Stories” as well as some soulful electro by Robert Strauss in his album “Quasars and Phasars”
Now I got some listening to do.
