Social Media Program Titles Released This Week:
Roger Eno and Brian Eno – Luminous 12” (Verve/Deutsche Grammophon)
The Mixing Colours story continues with the EP Luminous, adding to Roger Eno and Brian Eno’s first duo album on Deutsche Grammophon released last March. Includes “Pewter”, formerly a Japan-only bonus track, as well as six brand new tracks. As with the Mixing Colours album, the artist Dom Theobald has supplied the original cover artwork.
Dianna Krall – This Dream Of You CD/2xLP (Impulse/Verve)
Diana Krall’s new self-produced studio album This Dream Of You consists of sessions that took place in 2016 and 2017, with personally chosen gems from the American Songbook and more. The record features lead-off single “But Beautiful”, Krall’s last collaboration with friend and longtime creative partner Tommy LiPuma who died in 2017 at 80, as well as tracks like “Almost Like Being In Love” and “That’s All”. Krall heads a quartet line-up on some tracks that includes such long-standing collaborators as John Clayton, Jeff Hamilton and Anthony Wilson, while other tracks feature a trio format spotlighting Christian McBride and Russell Malone.
Omar Rodriguez-López – The Cloud Hill Tapes Pts. I, II & III 3xLP (Clouds Hill)
During the 2000s Rodríguez-López released an astonishing variety of solo works. On these recordings the artist used pieces that had accumulated over the years. However, what has so far been missing is a release that brings together the pieces from that era. This wait now has come to an end. These recordings of three sessions dating from the years 2018 and 2019 and taken at the Clouds Hill Studio are now being gathered together as a triple-vinyl LP box set. Part I features eight pieces, and Parts II and III six pieces each, which have been entirely newly arranged, produced by Johann Scheerer, and performed by Omar Rodríguez-López and a range of guest musicians.
