Herlin Riley- Cream Of The Crescent (2004)- ***1/2
Nicholas Payton- TRIUNE (2025)- **1/2
(Smooth jazz noodling and wordless vocals over bland arrangements. I lasted four songs. A major disappointment from Mr. Payton.)
Todd Rundgren- Up Against It (1997)- ***1/2
Led Zeppelin- Madison Square Garden, 7/29/73: Highlights (2015)- ***
Del Shannon- The Further Adventures Of Charles Westover (1968)-****
(A very convincing psych record from a man whose early hits would never let you believe he had this in him. Check it out!)
Cheap Trick- All Washed Up (2025)- ****
Suede- Antidepressants (2025)- ****

I had a similar experience yesterday with Triune. Esperanza Spalding is a fantastic bassist, but her vocals do very little for me. I did listen to the whole album, with the two best tracks being the last two. Can't imagine playing it again.
I purged that with Charlie Hunter - The Barns at Wolf Trap, set 1, April 27, 2001. A smoking set.
