https://nalasinephro.bandcamp.com/album/endlessness gm w/ Nala Sinephro’s “Endlessness”.
Endlessness, by Nala Sinephro10 track albumNala Sinephroplucked this off a best jazz albums of ‘24 list and it is beautifully mellow spriitual jazz that reminds me instrumentation wise — synth, string ensemble, keys, sax, ( https://www.allmusic.com/album/endlessness-mw0004339978) — of Pharaoh Sanders’ record w/ Floating Points.

I end up craving Sean Lennon’s “Asterisms” album ( https://www.allmusic.com/album/asterisms-mw0004180789) enough in the evening that I’ve started drilling into the musicians on it and the first one to stick has been Michael Leonhart, trumpet player and leader in his own right, whose “Seahorse and the Storyteller” ( https://www.allmusic.com/album/seahorse-and-the-storyteller-mw0001977904) I’ve had on all weekend.

If the vocals aren’t your thing, look for the digital-only instrumental version, "Seahorse & The Storyteller Instrumentals & Echoes Of Avramina EP”, which qobuz has, so I assume other places do too.

🏁 what I’m considering Portola, bound by 280, San Bruno Ave (or 101 I guess?), Mansell St, McLaren Park, and uh, the Excelsior? The north ridge of Visitacion Knob?
Poor winter weather, always a two-bus transfer to get there and to get back, and strava glitching out by 101 more than once made this take a long time to complete.
I also started biking weekdays for cardio instead of walking, so I had to put off the far corner for weekends.

It’s important that bits that only one in a thousand or fewer people will get are also funny on their own merits but some days, not important enough to send to drafts.
