Bud Powell - The Amazing Bud Powell, Volume 1
Looking at these scans this appears to be a 1972(ish) re-release. There is a good cheat sheet to identify Blue Note Records labels here

Cinema
Luther: The Fallen Sun (2023)
Rated 4/10
Luther, a great BBC TV series that is 100% worth watching if you haven't done so already.

Luther the movie is a poor cash attempt on the brand and Idris Elba.

Where the TV series had a credible storyline that was interesting this movie is a far fetched fantasy that tries to play every cliché going. It got to the stage where I could predict the next stupid turn..... spoiler alert

the car crashes through the ice in a remote mountain lake and low and behold a helicopter arrives right on time and fully suited frogmen are able to jump in and rescue him from drowning......hmmm thankfully someone had the foresight to send a police helicopter with frogmen ready to go up a mountain in the middle of winter just in case there was a frozen lake....

Action packed ... ok yes
Great lead actor ... ok yes
Good credible storyline ... not really
Will I watch again ... NO

John Mayall - Blues From Laurel Canyon
Added images from a 1980s(?) repressing [images 3238839 -> 3238842].

Cover states Made in England, labels state Holland.

This issue is not a gatefold sleeve.

Bob James - Rameau
Review
Not the normal jazz album you may expect from the jazz keyboard player Bob James. This one is an electronic rendition of the music of the French Baroque composer Jean-Philippe Rameau.

I gather that this was originally recorded to give as Christmas gifts to his friends but obviously it made it to a general release.

IMHO this is a good listen if you enjoy Tomita, Wendy Carlos or the like.

Various Artists - Now That's What I Call Classic Rock
Review
Starts with great intentions but gets lost as it works though CD2 then loses the theme completely with CD3 only just redeeming itself with Velvet Underground and Argent.

All 3 CDs contain great tracks but not all are worthy of the "Classic Rock" moniker.

Billie Holiday - The "Real" Lady Sings The Blues
Although labels and cover shows a (c) 1963 date this album references the the 1972 movie (starring Diana Ross) hence the 1973 release date.

Nelson Riddle And His Orchestra - Sea Of Dreams
The cover model is Dianne Webber, Playmate of the month, May 1955 & February 1956.

I quote from the web:

With her lovely face and exceptionally toned, shapely and voluptuous 39C-23-37 figure, hypnotically sensual presence and large natural breasts, Diane was a popular pin-up girl of the 1950s and 1960s, doing pictorials for and/or gracing the covers of such men's magazines as "Frolic," "Escapade," "Adam," "Beau," "Jem," "Tiger," "Modern Sunbathing," "Mermaid," "Monsieur," "Fling," "American Nudist," "Rogue," "Nugget," and "Esquire."

Cat Stevens - Teaser And The Firecat
From songfacts:

Stevens got the lyrics from a hymn book he found at a bookstore while looking for (public domain) song ideas. It was a children's hymn by Eleanor Farjeon, who also wrote a lot of children's poetry.

Stevens explained on The Chris Isaak Hour: "I accidentally fell upon the song when I was going through a slightly dry period and I needed another song or two for Teaser And The Firecat. I came across this hymn book, found this one song, and thought, This is good. I put the chords to it and then it started becoming associated with me."

Children in England, where Stevens grew up and attended church, could have heard Farjeon's hymn in primary school. Scottish children sang the old Gaelic hymn, "Child in a manger, Infant of Mary" to this tune. This hymn, which is based on a melody called "Bunessan" (named for a small island town in Scotland), predated "Morning" and was written in Gaelic by Mary MacDonald before being translated into English. For Scottish children it was a Christmas hymn.

Rick Wakeman, who was a session musician at the time, played the piano on this track, marking the first time he appeared on a hit single. He joined Yes a short time later.


There is also a Wikipedia page for the song.

Natalie Bergman - Mercy
If someone recommended a modern religious album I would run a mile but this is different. Natalie Bergman has produced a delightful, dreamy mix of pop tunes that deserves a listen.
