First listen to ...
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs. CD ripped to FLAC. From ...
Robin Trower - Original Album Series box set. I'm one of those who RT passed by. I've seen it so many times on the forums lately that I thought I had to give it a listen. Love it so far. Just sorry I left it so long. And another 4 albums to listen to after this one 
.
Wrong again Tony. 
Try this one;
Sorry, Steve but it looks like I'll have to come around to your place so you can have a good listen. Mind you, the Okki Nokki does a good job but I heard the KM is something special! 
Ah. The cheap reissue! That's what fooled me.

I forgive you but don't do it again! 
Neighbours away for the weekend so a rare opportunity to do some late evening listening with the wick turned up. This CD is just the ticket.
IMO this is the best post PG Genesis album. What do you lot think 
Graham.
Hi Graham
Probably going against popular opinion here but I like 'A Trick of the Tale' then 'And then There Were Three' better I think. Then this one. I'm also partial to Duke but I'd probably place this one slightly ahead. Difficult to compete with 'All in a Mouses Night' and 'Afterglow' though.

Another vote here for Trick of the Tail, but then I think it's the best Genesis album with or without PG.

Gustav Leonhardt's Collegium Aureum plays with original instruments.
Listening to No.3.
Perhaps more of a historical interest than a musical one but it's a breath of fresh air after uninspiring Charles Munch and Casals sets.
Clearly outlined double bass gives a firmer crisp impression. It can sound more medieval than baroque tunes at times.
Violin has a slight silvery edge and a bit insistent than the rest but I love how each instrument makes up an intricate harmonic textures and patterns.
This is much better than the Bank Holiday weather this morning.
24/96 steam. Beautiful music for a dreary day!
First press vinyl. A random pick:
First chance to relax and enjoy this one, of two LPs given to me last week. Cheers Steve for this one.
CD ripped. Again, beautiful IMO
Going to have a classical day today.
First listen of this gem from the good doctor. Thank you very much Steve.
Vinyl of course.
during my workout this morning...
Still enjoy The Trinity Sessions......beautiful album...
Streaming | FLAC rip
Another listen to this '95 re-master which is unexpectedly good.
First chance to relax and enjoy this one, of two LPs given to me last week. Cheers Steve for this one.
I thought you'd like it.
Ziggy on original vinyl.
