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

Not necessarily an easy listen but I liked it for a first listen....

Including remixes by Mogwai and Marconi Union

Fleetwood Mac "The Original Fleetwood Mac"

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.

Just more super prog rock from these Polish lads.
