What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XI)

Absolutely Stevee.

The sun has come out in Yorkshire, time for some reggae on my 'sound system'....and remembering those days way back in Handsworth.

Lyrical very nice, first run...

I've now moved on down to Bristol....

Pleasant jazz album

A Certain Ratio - Sextet, their greatest LP in a new deluxe CD edition. Coz I fancy some dark early 80s Northern punk-funk:

Richard, those Reggae Archives Records compilations look really interesting - I've just been looking at their website. I take it they're good?

I have being buying a few on vinyl and if you like reggae they are worth having.

Buy one, try one...

Richard

p.s. I am looking forward to Midlands Roots Explosion which I have on order along with Black Symbol.

Amazing what this guy can get out of a guitar......., and of course our favorite black boxes do play a certain role in making it a full enjoyment...

Kristian Bezuidenhout on fortepiano and clever programming are elevating this series to unprecedented levels - a good example are the K264 variations on this volume 7, normally nothing special, but under Bezuidenhout's care almost a kaleidoscope of colors. Fortunately he's just as good in the big works (on this disc, that's the A minor sonata).

Röyksopp - The inevitable end

Burning Spear: Man In The Hills

Richard

Her playing is special...

Working on a sunny Sunday. Grrr. At least Imogen is lightening the mood a little.

Did work the all day here as well + rainy weather + no chance to see friends.

I feel i'm not blessed at all......

Jenny Lewis- The Voyager on vinyl.

Would be interested to know what you make of Lonelady's Hinterland, Kev.

Enjoying this, purchased from Wall of Sound, Huddersfield, last time Saints played at the Goldpharm.

Continued with this earlier, delicate playing....

Now ending the evening with a super album by David Fray - will be in my classical top ten of this year
