'Galant' music by Telemann. I think that to succeed in our time this music needs to be injected with enthusiasm and a bit of drama, but La Rêveuse seem content to remain galant - it's all nicely played but rather bland IMO.

Angus & Julia Stone
"iTunes Live From Sydney" (2010) mp3
This combination shouldn't work but it does. In musical style I think it leans heavily towards Ms Krauss rather than RP but that's probably for the best. A lovely album.

Yes indeed, even at low volumes with the little one in bed, but there is a sweet spot on the volume scale where magic happens and Phil jumps into the room, very enjoyable
Great stuff!

Haven't heard these albums for a couple of years Graeme and today decided to get the vinyls out, give them a good clean on the RCM, lie back and enjoy them like I used to all those years ago. From Lemmings to Man- Erg to My Room to The Undercover Man those records are timeless! 
Elton John
"Elton John" mp3
Believe me or not but first vinyl i got was
Hi Gian, I still remember the day I bought Tumbleweed Connection. I was away at college and had a record store just 6 blocks walk away, paid roughly $2.98 - $3.98, took it back to the dormitory room and played it on my Zenith Circle-of-Sound stereo. I like early EJ the best.
By the way, nice picture of your home area, looks beautiful.

I found a copy of this lurking on my server 24/192 FLAC, don't even remember downloading it, It's surprisingly good :-
Kenny Burrell - Midnight Blue.
Waiting in eager anticipation for my Music Matters 33 recording to arrive. Making do with Spotify for now.
It is well worth the wait.
Enjoy
These MM reissues are the best!
Enjoying this.
