Any love for the Soft Parade? It's a personal favourite of mine, despite all the negative opinions.

I really also love this album, on the other hand all the Doors albums before Morrison´s death are really great IMO. One thing that makes them great is they´re all quite different.

^ Yeah, they all sound so different it's hard to pick a favourite. I find Other Voices and Full Circle very enjoyable too. Manzarek's playing is what I like the most about them and he really gets the spotlight on those.

I am thinking also they´re not as bad as their reputation is. But maybe they should have done them some other name, you can heard in them how important Morrison was to the band.

I’ve been a big Jack Bruce fan all my life, and I’ve always enjoyed this album a lot despite my general indifference to jazz (more so when I was young, but I’m slowly gaining a better appreciation of jazz as I get older).
Me too, always really love his songs in Cream. Somehow his solos had long been the ones "have to listen them someday". Finally I listened the whole "Songs For a Taylor" and yes, it´s masterpiece, really love the whole album! I am not also ever been big jazz fan, really love some Coltrane, Miles Davis and of course Sun Ra, but there it is. Didn´t know anything about that Bruce/McLaughlin/Hiseman/Heckstall-Smith-album before yesterday, it is ok, but really love more Bruce´s first. Going to listen his next solos soon!

What about those Ranaldo & Body/Head-albums I listened yesterday, they´re both quite new, have you heard them? I think in that Ranaldo album are two really great songs, the rest is also good, also liked quite much that new Body/Head-album.
i see you listened to Harmony Row today, that may be one of my top 5 all time, or if not, definitely top 10.
I have not heard that Ranaldo nor the Body/Head stuff, but I’ve made a note to check them out!

Really loved Harmony Row too, I think it is as great as Songs For a Tailor! Going to listen today Out Of the Storm, remember one of my friend said it great too.

Body/Head is quite noisy stuff, but I like their first album "Coming Apart", "the Switch" is also as good, "No Waves" was ok, but recommend to check those two first. Ranaldo´s album is more experimental than "Electric Trim" and not as good, but good anyway.

i’ve been curious about Autechre. I’ve not delved too deep into electronic music but I do like it in some settings. I guess I prefer it more ambient and abstract (avant is my preferred domain, but like lo-fi kitch too); beats are ok as long as they aren’t the focus.
Any recs?

Yeah, I'm currently in the middle of my Autechre marathon. I thought it would be appropriate to finally give them proper full album listens, especially because I'm really into 90's IDM, glitch, and stuff like that at the moment. 

In case of Autechre, I'm afraid beats do play a very important role, but they are really fascinating once you really try to give in to them. Early Autechre albums, like Incanabula and Amber are relatively their most ambient works (also loads of beats, but also tons of soft, dreamy synths). Records like LP5 are extremely rhythm-based, as someone on YouTube put it, sometimes sound like "a spaceship malfunctioning," sometimes very difficult and demanding, but ultimately extremely rewarding to the listener. Definitely worth the effort.

If you would wish to explore that same scene, but perhaps with more abstract and ambient sounds, Boards of Canada might just be your thing, if you don't know them already. They are similar to Autechre in many ways, but far more "humane," less robotic, nostalgic, and, from a certain point of view, extremely psychedelic. In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country and Music Has the Right to Children are two of my favorite records from them and I really recommend giving them a try. If Autechre sounds to radical for you at first (as it did to me), Boards of Canada might be a nice place to head to. Again, beats are crucial to their signature downtempo sound, but melodies and synth landscapes are equally important in the music.

Haha! Je crois comprendre. Plus jeune j'écoutais un de ses albums environ tous les 2-3 ans mais depuis quelques années ils (ces trois-là) reviennent assez régulièrement dans le lecteur...et c'est une excellente écoute a chaque fois! Il y a aussi que les désordres mentaux semblent s'amplifier avec l'âge.

Pendant ce temps:

Oink Floyd - The Early Years 1971
LivePhish - Providence 98 (the island tour, 3rd and terrific show)
