Ripping a track from this personal grail for next week's show. Les Frères Mégri, Mahmoud Hassan Younès (OG Philips, 1973). A terrific Moroccan LP that doesn't really quite sound like any other

BREAKING: Trump’s ICE bans Christians and all people from praying “in front of or inside” the Broadview ICE facility.
So, forced prayer in school is good, but volunteer prayer for the prisoner is banned.
This is what white nationalist Christianity looks like. This is Trump’s fascist America. Smh.

Recharging with Gil Evans' homage to #Hendrix. I have a regular copy but couldn't leave a Quad behind in the bargyn bin. Haven't compared yet, so not sure if mixes any different. Fun album, some great players here. Works much better than you might think. #musicsky #jazzsky #jazz #music
