2016 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.
Last year's thread (and links to previous years) can be found here;

1978 - Original vinyl...
On CD:-

Roy Harper - Folkjokeopus

On his fourth album as a leader, French horn player John Clark showcases his talents as a composer and arranger for a rotating ensemble of up to eleven musicians, including Alex Foster on saxophone, Ryo Kawasaki on guitar, and Howard Johnson on bass clarinet. Recorded 20 years ago.

Recommended weeks ago by several folks on here.
Only just got round to Tidalising it......................bit good innit?
Thanks all.
I've dipped into this one a few times since seeing it recommended a while ago. Just played it all the way through and I definitely concur ![]()

Just download and enjoying a first run...


Enough chilling' already, it's wake up time............LOUD!

1977 - Original album. After this one and Heavy Horses it all went down hill as far as Im concerned. I have never enjoyed any of their albums since.






My order of play today

This will be the last album tonight.

In spite of the title, there's much more here than Joe's usual take on the blues.................excellent album.
Play it LOUD! ![]()

This is rapidly becoming one of my albums of the year. It is really fine.
I've got quite a few John Coltrane albums but have never owned this one until now. I bought it for a song on Qobuz. A wonderful album, and great sound too.

Had a listen to this earlier this evening over tidal, sounds so k...

Now listing to this old one, which I just downloaded this evening...


Late night chillin'........................PLAY IT quietly. ![]()
John Martyn - One World
then, George Benson - In Flight
That's it, schoolnight.

Savage Garden, The Singles, felt like something a bit light and boppy and this does the job very well. Full of happy pop/rock music and with pretty good SQ through-out, nice to chill to. 24 bit Flac via Audirvana/Hugo

Broadsword and the Beast and Storm Watch are pretty decent.
I only have a couple more of the later ones, they don't get played very often.

Vinyl.
