With 2013 upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread.  I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.

The Essential Jimmy Rushing.... This is a great 'blues and jazz' album & recording from 1974.

 

On original double vinyl.

Have this on vinyl and it is growing on me quickly.

The content is very good but the SQ is bass heavy and sounds enhanced which is a bit overpowering.

A shame really as it is a cracking album.

ATB,

Andy.

If I’m not mistaken, Ariana is playing Jordi’s old 'Barak Norman' for this recording.

 

A relaxed and slow start,

i'm going to enjoy the rest of my first listen from the comfort of my bubble-bath : )

Thanks,

It is from 2003 I don't think it is as good an album as her later stuff but still worth tracking down but very rare.

Up from Below by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros

 

Yes, I was attracted to this by the catchy tune from the Peugeot 2008 advert, don't suppose I'm the only one, but the album is rich, varied and a bit different.  I'm enjoying it.
