On CD. Third album from Winchester-born singer/songwriter, and jolly good it is too.

Music created with sound effects - quite special, from Bandcamp...

Shawn Mullins, Souls Core, something to chill to so that my heart rate can return to normal after a deeply disappointing cup final. Flac via Audirvana/Hugo

I've been very much enjoying Black Hill and been playing their four albums alot since finding them last week. Beautiful layered guitars, instrumental ambient post-rock.

Currently enjoying your recommendation on Tidal Stevee - very evocative of SW US desert.

Various Positions from this wonderful CD Box Set.
The sq is fantastic, the reproduction paper sleeves and original labels are a nice touch all in all a class act both the music and the box... £14.50 new on Amazon.
+1 I agree it's a very good box set all round. I got mine new from the same place early last year at the same price, good value and SQ as you say. Interestingly there is only one used box for sale at the moment and thats £36!

I searched amazon.com and the mp3 is $69.99 (???) while cd is $23 similr to what you said. Found other for $18. I will order it.

Thanks for posting. Regards. Erich

Warren Zevon. The Envoy. On vinyl from 1982. A nice mix of songs; some serious, some intense, and a few light. A good album that I ought to play more often.
