Very sad news . . . The Great Jack DeJohnette has died of congestive heart failure at the age of 83. :(

One of my favorite shows of all time was in '75 with "Jack DeJohnette's Directions" with Abercrombie & Holland. They ended the evening with an incredible extended version of Abercrombie's "Timeless".

Listening now!! Love the recording quality of these Musik GmbH german pressings, and that Curt Cress, what a drummer?!?!?!
 
I have had the pleasure to hear a lot of jazz/rock from around the globe, and would like to share some of the discoveries along the way, can we ever hear enough of these great musicians?

Tonight I am listening to Swedish drummer and percussionist Jonathan Lundberg, who has put together his own band to give expression to his particular musical vision. Self-described as jazz fusion, his debut album, Nebula is more than that. Much more. Although the opening sequence of the first track, "Phantom", suggests the swirling attempt to stage an atmosphere for some bloated prog rock epic, when the music gets going it is surprisingly refreshing.

5. Quicktrip - 4:28
6. Siberia - 4:31
7. Snowflake - 5:18
8. Higgs Intro - 1:34
9. Higgs - 5:43
10. Heavens Maze - 5:51
