Got the DVD Julian got the last vinyl copy on sale yesterday

Check on Monday but I'm not sure the whole stock was out on show in the foyer on Friday. I definitely heard someone say there where more (Phantom Limb)albums in the stock room, so there may have been others too.

ewemon ( or indeed anyone), may I ask which album you would recommend as a starting point for someone like me who knows nothing about Little Feat but is intrigued?

I'm not ewemon, but....

The first Little Feat I ever heard was their live album "Waiting For Columbus". It has a great version of "Dixie Chicken" (I also recommend the album of the same title) and it's a good introduction to their work.

But I would also recommend "Time Loves A Hero", "Feats Don't Fail Me Now", "Sailin' Shoes", and "The Last Record Album".

Chick Corea: The Leprechaun
'76 Release. Original US Polydor issue.

Ramsey Lewis: Funky serenity
'73 Release. US CBS Columbia issue.

One of the best sounding versions I've heard.

Susanna and her Magical Orchestra - 3


From today's Independent

Karen Carpenter meets Joy Division in gothic synth-pop heaven. The cult Norwegian duo's third album more than upholds their excellent standards while offering a further twist to the tale - a full conversion to beyond-the-pale 1980s keyboard sounds.

Not all the 10 songs here are equally good but at its best – "Recall","Someday", "Palpatine'sDream", a beautiful cover of Roy Harper's "Another Day" – this is truly awe-inspiring music, provoking deep thoughts and sublime feelings.

Last night was dedicated to Pink Floyd (Umma Gumma, DTOTM, Obscured by Clouds), so I start with Atom Heart Mother, now (although "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast" woudl fit better. Topic wise...)

Isn't that a CD that you can play often and enjoy every time ?

For me it is...
