Yes it's the Pure Pleasure / Spekers Corner reissue which is excellent. I replaced a Doxy reissue which was / is very digital. It is one of my all time favourite albums. I still have the Doxy if you are interested it's better than nothing as I think the PP is now out of print.

Elliott Smith "Either/Or"
It doesn't happen very often, in fact it happens mostly when listening to Eric Dolphy's "Out to Lunch" or some of Miles Davis' work - typically "Bitches Brew" - and I get this feeling that I really shouldn't like what I hear, but I do and it amazes me every single time. Now is such a time and I'm listening to Miles Davis at The Filmore series III. Pretty psychedelic or abstract - far out and lovely at the same time. My wife hates it and says it isn't music, so I'm listening through my headphones.
A very enjoyable Mary Black album to start the evening's listening. Excellent recording. I'm always impressed with the drums of Jerry Marotta on this. Rather unusual for a Mary Black album for the drums to have such prominence but it works beautifully.
The Holy Ghost Box Set by Albert Ayler
Keith Urban "Fuse" (deluxe edition)
Class. Opeth Pale Communion - music as it used to be made
Vinyl - Basia - Time and Tide
On vinyl.
A musical and sonic delight.
This....
Followed by this...
Both on vinyl
DG's '87 digital recording. Oddly, this sounds smoother than many analog recording from the same label and certainly this is much better than their mid 80s CD release.
Pretty and floaty sound. Rhythmically soft and mellow. Somehow I feel like being inside an ornate Italian rococo church.
Timing wise, he's not out of line yet feels as if taking enormous time to get to the finale.
Sounding like a a soundtrack from the 50’s costume drama in Technicolor Cinemascope.
On vinyl. Another one of those forgotten treasures hiding on the racks of LPs.
Michelangeli in the afternoon's warm light.

Very interesting description. It makes perfect sense!
