Who Needs Who

 

This really is a "grower" , purchased on a review only ,with  the  piano  on the first track i thought i had an X factor wannabee ,,, fortunatly this soon changed and it is really rather DARK indeed

A new purchase - missed it on release.  Just given it a first play and it's a keeper!

 

 

Great album and superb sound on the Gold Mastersound release, particularly the sublime T B Sheets.

A real curiosity (not a very good one, it has to be said) from The Dame's back catalogue.

It's been too long since I spun this one.  Thankfully I had my iPod on shuffle play when driving back from Naim's 40th celebrations on Sunday and on came And More Again.  It reminded me to dig out the album and give it a play this week.  Wonderful...

Stevie Wonder - Innervisions

His early 70's stuff was a classic period for him.
