whats your favourite 1950s jazz album?

My favourite jazz era is 1960s so I'll give you an answer in there. Firstly to discount Miles as I'm not a fan per se. tl;dr answer would probably be Blues & Roots. At least it's probably my most played. This earth era is all about trane and basically every trane album in this decade is spiritual experience and an apex of human art history. my opinions sway on the best releases but I'll say I think there are several better than Blue Train. Personal favourite of Coltrane is Africa/Brass lp and even better if you look up the original recordings. Meditations era is like a late era Miro on my wall, chastened genius aerified but I maybe don't like looking at it every day.

And Nina's Pastel Blues goes somewhere near the top too.

Ah, the butter myth. Just get some organic butter mate. Butter is full of vitamins, good fats, and medium and short chain fats that actually help in fat burning. Read this http://authoritynutrition.com/7-reasons-why-butter-is-good-for-you/

He's not American though.. officially. British passport, born/raised in London till 12, British parents, raps with a British accent, was deported back to England by US government. Was going to say this is ridiculous and what matters is being in New York at the time but then again he was so different in everything he did big argument to be made for his Britishnessness being the key to that I guess.

went to central london on the weekend, awful, gentrified, commercial, corporate, achingly emptily cool desperations, selfie sticks, $15 organic single organic cookies, no cafes, zero independants, zero young locals, 100% tourists and rich families. Really you have to go quite far to the outskirts now to find any real people or places in London. Theres miles and miles of corporate desert and it's soul destroying. Other than Bodean's there's no where to even eat. The actual independant places are just hipster run offs frequented by yuppie clients selling nothing. You've got this street Carnaby Street famous in the past for hippie culture and swinging 60s and mods and independent boutiques and you get there and it's fucking filled with Puma and Adidas stores, wtf? They play up it's heritage and put that shit all along it. Soulless. Pay £10 for a tube day pass, get onto the most grotty disgustingly unclean underground trains in teh world in my experience. Had to walk around South Kensington for a bit, just a pile of rich shit and yuppies and dead eyed tourists how can anyone stay sane there?

Cities I generally find disgusting depressing places, but I have never been more depressed and dispossessed and lacking in confidence in humanity by a City than last weekend in London.

his most recent posts are vile misognyist bullshit inspired by not liking a janelle monae song, turned out he hadn't fully changed his brand to anti-semitism and still had room for misogyny
