Another recent purchase. Not as good as Air Conditioning in my view but it may grow on me.

Duration of songs quite short by today's standard, simple recordings, and pretty old. But it still has magic. The song Girl has always been one of my favourites.

Official live recording

Also one of my long-time favourite bands.  Saw them last year in Newcastle supported by Marc Ford.

I think this is one of their best.

Elvis Costello. Trust. On original vinyl from 1981. Inspired by Matt's recent posts of the MFSL reissue.

Heitor Villas-Lobos: Bachiana Brasileria No 5.

On vinyl.

Lloyd Price Sings The Million Sellers. On WaxTime vinyl from 2015. A quiet pressing and nice compilation. My only regret it does not include "Stagger Lee".

Fleetwood Mac. Heroes Are Hard To Find. On original vinyl from 1974. Long time since I listened to this. Wonderfully mastered by Kent Duncan, I find myself more enamored with the SQ than the music.

Foghat. Fool For The City (1975). On MFSL vinyl from 2008. Inspired by Stevee_S's recent post.

This before I go to work.. Why because it's the Beatles 

Great sounding Mono from the 2014 Box.

(2006)

Instrumental album of ambient progressive rock and electronica aided and abetted by good bass lines driven along by real drums.

Unfortunately the only decent album she's ever done and then only the first 5 tracks or so.

Can very quickly become tiring (IMHO) and repetitive.

A bit of jazz by Robert Glasper recorded live at Capitol Studios. Nice!
