I'm listening to all of my records in my collection. It's not a huge collection, and I have some weird ones that I never listen to. This gives me a chance to listen to all of them and share my thoughts about them while I listen to them.

Bennie Maupin - Jewel in the Lotus
This record was a rare find at Cedarburg's Maxwell Street Days (think gigantic flea market). Has some hissing and snaps (record is scratched up a bit) which is typical for a Maxwell Street record. Later on, I will listen to some Styx records that I picked up at Maxwell Street Days that made a big mark on me in 8th grade.
This record has a lot of electronic piano (Herbie Hancock... his only appearance on ECM?)
I like that Bill Summers is credited as playing waterfilledgarbagecan.
This record is pretty much Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi band, but no Julian Priester or Eddie Henderson.
This is a very reflective record. No wildly intense grooves... very meditative.
