Last year's thread (and links to previous years) can be found here;

I wish I could tell you but I am sworn to not giving a review on the disc as it isn't coming out until late May. I have some trax from the same sessions that are not on this album and they are ok but not startling.
There are samples on the following link Tony which will give you a flavour of the album.

There is also one track up on youtube.
Cheers, Ewe. I saw that link earlier on. I just wanted your personal opinion but I understand your position. I'll check the streaming when it comes out in May and if any good I'll place an order. Thanks again.

Lovely gentle best of album it takes me way back when.
Oh, you softie. Mind you, she did have a wonderful voice.

Having been introduced to the music of Beth Neilson Chapman through her lovely Sand & Water album I determined to explore more of her work. This album is pressing-my-buttons too.

The excellent debut from Martha and the Muffins.

Heard this on Radio Paradise on Wednesday. I listened again on Tidal, I can't make up my mind if I like it, his voice is certainly interesting. Not too taken with their other output seem to have heard it before, elsewhere.
Like the Martha and the Muffins album(s).

UK Vertigo "spaceship" vinyl. No reason, just haven't heard it in yonks. Bar far and away the best of the pre-Autobahn LPs IMO.

Another UK Vertigo spaceship, this time a double. I bought it in the Summer of 1978. A very happy time, full of great memories. Slapping this on has bought them flooding back...


Streaming - Tidal HF

Via Tidal but will pick it up before I make it home this evening.
