Taking a little time out to listen to this fine album again. Lovely songs in unmistakable Fagen style, jazz and soul infused melodic rock.

Via Qobuz mwahhhh ?

Through Qobuz, just album. Had ignored this guy so far and I am really liking this...

John Abercrombie should not be ignored :-) been around since the early days of ECM and has a substantial catalogue to keep you occupied. One of my very favourite albums of his is this one with Hein Van De Geyn and Joe LaBarbera - Base Line - Why Really.  A bass led album with lots of Abercrombie all over it on his guitar - I saw them play this a long time ago in the mid nineties.....available on quboz

Fleetwood Mac Live.  CD rip.  Love this album generally. Buckingham's  guitar sound is great and the version of "Sara" is a fave of mine.
