A bit of mod, a bit of bop

Last Saturday I went to the Felipop (Felicia’s Pop Festival) in Limodre, Fene. I knew this festival through some smart people :-) that come every year to Pontedeume from Logroño and Madrid, but this year was the first time I went to.

Of course I enjoyed a lot with the concerts. Felipop is a little, minority festival, so it’s easy to enjoy alternative pop music as meet interesting (majority mod) people. I discovered some pop groups, the best in the night was Paul Collins with a wondering, full-energized live.

But Felipop is a chance to buy vinyl LP’s too. So, when I arrived to the festival I run to the music store stands and I found four (for me) little jewels:

  • “One night in Birdland”, a Charlie Parker Quintet live (1950)
  • “The Bosses”, Joe Turner and Count Basie hand by hand(1973)
  • “Newk’s time”, with Sonny Rollins, Winton Kelly, Dough Watkins and Philly Joe Jones (1957)
  • “Mirror, mirror”, with Chick Corea, Joe Henderson, Ron Carter and Billy Higgins (1980)
