Mrs. George went shopping.
I'm alone in the house, and I've got Gardiner's recording of the Beethoven #7 playing.
Really loud.

Listen to the use of the pedal in the repeats. Also, how heavy-handed...

I've always enjoyed Chris Isaak's music. I was unaware that, about 9 years ago, he released an album called "Beyond the Sun" in which he covers some of the classic songs from the Sun Studios - "Pretty Woman," "I Walk The Line," and a host of others.
I've not been able to find them on Spotify or Apple Music, but if you look around on Youtube, they're there.

@george-k said in What are you listening to now?:
What do you think of the Joe Pass?
I'm humbled by his ability, which is clearly immense, but I've never really been able to connect with solo jazz guitar - there's just not enough tonal variety for me to listen to it on its own. As part of a bigger band, it's fine.

He's been called the "Paganini of guitar."

Yeah, it's
a bitdifficult. His meanderings seem to be journeys away from the "tune" and I found myself wondering where the HELL he's going with it. When he gets back to the tune, it's almost a relief.It's almost like Art Tatum, but without as much coherence.

It's about the journey out, man, not the return to home.
Gotta dig it.
Also helps if you snap your fingers.
