I had written some time back that I had not been enjoying listening to music for a while. Well, I am glad to say that the joy is back! The secret, I realised, was to eschew the random playlists and radio stations and go back to what I had called, Slow Music. Pick an artist and listen to an entire album of theirs in one sitting.

I have been listening to a few albums over the past couple of weeks. I thought it might be good to create list of these, so I can refer back to them later. So, in no particular order, here are some of the albums that I have enjoyed over the past couple of weeks:

• Jazz:
  • Kind of Blue – Miles Davis
  • A Love Supreme – John Coltrane
