Happy 50th - A Love Supreme

http://www.npr.org/2014/12/07/369191...a-love-supreme



As time goes by, one of my most enduringly favorite albums of all time.

One of maybe 10 I've listened to over 200-300 times, and perhaps the only I always listen to 100% engaged.

Like, lower the lights, ease into the La-Z-Boy with a scotch and just drink it in.

Jazz at the Pawnshop, Famous Blue Raincoat, Dark Side of the Moon, Pictures at an Exhibition, OK Computer, A Love Supreme. Those are the biggies at casa BL.

I want you to imagine me slowly stroking it to these real chill tunes.

I simply assume you are stroking it every moment you are on here.

If tumescent snark was a thing, you'd be its picture in the dictionary.

Pictures at an Exhibition? I thought that was Mussorgsky or somebody. Or is that a different song by the same name?

That's the one. I was just listing a few of my favorites I put ALS on par with.

In case you are confused, the last line is a list of other albums, NOT tracks on ALS.

Arne Domnerus, Jennifer Warnes, Pink Floyd, Modest Mussorgsky, and Coltrane.

I'd probably put Dvorak's New World and Holst's Planets in there, maybe Brubeck's Take 5.

Have you heard the piano version of Pictures? That's actually what Mussorgsky wrote-- even if he did intend to orchestrate the piece, he never had a chance to. The version most orchestras play was done by Ravel.

Ravel did a fine job with the orchestration but to me, the orchestra takes away from the deeply personal impact that each picture is supposed to have on you. Kind of a too many cooks in the kitchen sort of thing. I totally prefer it the way Mussorgsky intended.

I have the Reiner version with CSO [which I edited into my post above] because, . . . Chicago Brass!!! and Guillou's Pipe Organ rendition on the Dorian label, which is my preferred listening medium as it's simply a masterpiece of recording and mastering.



But this is Coltraine's big day.

I know people are going to want to curb stomp me for saying this but I HATE jazz and think it is the MOST overrated genre of music I've ever heard. It comes across to me as something pretentious hipsters listen to while smoking their hand rolled cigarettes and drinking things like Drambuie on ice.

I've never gotten it no matter how many times I listen.

Let me guess-- you like simplistic crap like the Beach Boys?

Growing up I listened to rock, some pop, dance music from the clubs, but what I really liked then and still love today is R&B/Motown, especially stuff from the 50 and 60s.

The Temptations, Teddy Pendergrass, Diana Ross and The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Barry White, the Four Tops, The Spinners, and on and on.

I listen to a lot of alternative today including the Black Keys, Silversun Pickups, AWOL Nation, Cage the Elephant, Imagine Dragons, Bastille, Muse, Metric, Red Hot Chili Peppers.

I hate country, hate rap, hate jazz.

There's no doubt that jazz has its share of masturbatory noodling, but so does solo guitar. You can't treat an entire genre as monolithic. Except death metal. That's all complete crap.

Famous Blue Raincoat too eh? I like Jennifer Warnes' voice very much, but if I want to listen to Leonard Cohen tunes, I go straight to the source.

That being said, both that and A Love Supreme are incredible albums. The first minute or two at the beginning of Acknowledgement always gives me goosebumps.
