I am not that familiar with much of her work but this is pleasant.
A friend played his very nice vinyl version for me at the weekend so I thought I'd dig out my CD.

Steve - I think I've got all of her albums and there isn't one I don't like. The early albums are more traditional and 'folk' but still enjoyable. If I had to pick just one it would be No Frontiers which I think is the mid-point in her move from the traditional to more modern style you will have heard here on Shine.
'If I Could Do It All Over Again I'd Do It All Over You', Caravan.
Looking forward to seeing the band tomorrow in Salisbury.
...nice melodic jazz...

Thanks for the information MDS, that is really useful. With the help of Qobuz I will get to know her a little better.

In preparation for our Led Zeppelin day on Saturday I thought I'd better do some swatting up as I must confess that I am not the biggest fan, what is considered the best Led Zeppelin album? and I'll hunt a copy out as I really only know the big hits I'm embarrassed to admit.
Hi Paul, my vote would be for Physical Graffiti or LZ II

IME it's always worth listening to Led Zep III

I listen to CD's mostly for convenience and wide selection and availability of choice and there are many great recordings on CD. Personally though, I wish the digital world never existed in my lifetime anyway. There was never a need for these newer formats. My greatest pleasure is still received from a vinyl source and I get such satisfaction listening to this on vinyl smiling that some good releases are still coming. At the same time I sit here holding my perfectly good film camera while hoping I can still find good film in the years to come and enough people feel the same way so supply continues.

Paul,
This two should keep the crowd happy.
The first is their best IMHO, stablished the band as being heavy and very bluesy and that kind of summarizes what their sound was all about.
Physical Graffitti is made up of cuttings that did not make to other albums and should give an idea of what went on in their heads in between those other releases.
Record one contains some of their heavier stuff like In My Time of Dyin' and the ethereal Kashmir.
Record two is more subtle and relaxing.
After the "gig" you can always listen to NIN's Downward Spiral. Serious LZ influence believe it or not: just ask Trent!
Have fun,
Tony
That has been on my wish list for quite some time.
