The Nice ~ Nice (1969)
No apologies for playing this one again so soon. I am appreciating and enjoying it more now than I did back in the day. This expanded version a mix of studio and live (Filmore East and BBC Session) tracks, with Keith Emerson's style quite (suitably) prominent.
Yes - The Yes Album (1971)
Original vinyl
A relaxed jazz album
Really enjoying this. Raw young Mr Zimmerman.
Thanks to whoever recommended this. It's a super album.
On CD:-
Very nice album. The simplicity of Mary's early work is a delight.
Bakerloo - Bakerloo (1969)
Blues / rock - with guitarist Clem Clempson before his days with Colosseum and Humble Pie
Original vinyl
Vol 2 - People & Places, this evening. Quality of the reproduction as stunningly good as Vol 1. Luka on this is better than Suzanne's original version, in my view.
Great album, lounge style...
Nelson Freire plays Chopin in his inimitable, subtle but colourful style. First 'spin', 24/96 FLAC.
Cheers

One of the better progressive rock albums..., especially the long number artificial paradise is a jewel...
Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Architecture and Morality (1981)
Original vinyl
