I can't remember when I last played this, their best album.
On my mobile setup Enrico Pieranuzi is always an enjoying listening experience...

New for me - Loveless, My Bloody Valentine.

Now took on an oldy, still quite enjoyable..., in the time this was really something revolutionary. Still remember how stunned I was when I heard it the first time in a radio program which was focussed at introducing you to artists in full.

Blow By Blow by Jeff Beck
This from a remastered 2001 CD but no worse for that and sounding very good.

Such an enjoyable concert on this double album, good live music very well recorded, great sound quality sounding even better via the Audirvana + DSD "upgrade". Playing CD 1 of 2

Excellent Gianluigi, evocative stuff. I was always looking forward to the next episode of The Persuaders. John Barry was The Man for Movie and TV soundtracks.
