What Are You Listening To?

The 20+ minute opener ...  





Oooooh - one of my faves Ruby. The first time I really took notice of Mr. Phillip's drumming abilities. One of my favourite album covers as well.  

And a live version of the track - just watch and listen from the 6.50 mark - Mr. Phillips in full flight. Mind-boggling how good this guy is. https://youtu.be/sy8FX-Dyxb8

Anyone else in the mood for a bit of ice cream? I am certainly in the mood today. I was yesterday as well. And the day before that. And the day before that etc. etc......

When was this first released? It sounds to me ahead of it’s time. The double meaning thing though has been around in blues etc for a very long time.

Somewhere around the late 70's. Maybe '78 or so.

Yes - excellent drummer - thanks for the clip. My mind boggles every time I see the Hiromi Trio - such incredible talent - all three of them. 

Are you familiar with Gordon Giltrap's stuff at all? He's not discussed much here. Simons Phillips was the drummer on three fairly proggy outings he made in the 70's - brilliant guitarist - a true virtuoso. The albums are Visionary, Perilous Journey and Fear of the Dark. This is from Perilous Journey ... extremely tasteful drumming IMHO ... it's a question of finesse, and Phillips has it, in spades ...

So you know what ‘ice-cream’ is a euphemism for?
