What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XII)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2016
2016 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.
Last year's thread (and links to previous years) can be found here;
Dire Straits. Communiqué. On original vinyl from 1979.
Dire Straits Live. Alchemy. On 2 LPs from 1984.
Nice when you do spinning drives up the speed, the album as such is ok but not spectacular .....
I continued in my workout with an oldie. While a bit polished still nice to listen to. An interesting version of Yesterday from the Beatles ....
Nice quiet album for breakfast....
Nirvana. With The Lights Out (2004). I'm finishing my foray into this set with the third and final CD. Heavy energetic music predominates though there is a single lighter reprieve with "Jesus Doesn't Want Me for a Sunbeam" - a cover of the Vaselines that also appeared on Nirvana's MTV Unplugged. Wonderful track:
Deftones-White Pony
I've been slowly buying all the albums on the rather wonderful Vivat label, which is run by Robert King, leader of the King's Consort. This is the only one I didn't have, until yesterday, and like all the others it's excellent - beautifully sung and played.

If your feet don't tap to this then rigor mortis must be setting in.

Original vinyl... great album and a bargain of the moment on the River for just over a tenner plus P&P.

Played this the other night and have not been able to get it out my head since, so on it goes again.
Streaming on Tidal.
One for all the blues fans.............. great voice, and quite stunning guitar work.......... go straight to the last track.........."Voodoo Spell"......this guy is something special.

The joy of Tidal - Saw your recommendation and thought 'I fancy that'...So it's added to my library for the weekend.

Sounding wonderful and despite the plaudits and prowess of Argus this is probably still my favourite WA album.

Indeed!
For me, makes the monthly subscription an easy spend.
Hope you enjoy it................imho...........go straight to last track, as suggested..........bit of a taster for the rest of the album.
Unfortunately, my post should have read "was", rather than "is", since, sadly, Michael is longer with us. 
It's all good.
