2016 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.

It's nice to try something new and previously unknown. Thanks Chris, this is very good.
MC5 - Kick Out The Jams.
An essential album for all rock fans ................ where punk began.
Ancient vinyl
Why? Is it necessary to ask?

ESKA - ESKA 48/24 download,
1974 - Double live vinyl - German pressing...
Steve Kuhn - Ecstasy. ECM CD solo piano in fine sound.
Meat Loaf - Bat Out Of Hell.
Ok, it's fashionable to pour scorn on this album ..................... but, who among us didn't love it, back in the day ............. c'mon, own up!
1977 - Original vinyl...
Clive B posted:First play of the recently released 3LP version of this great live album. The greatest rhythm section in rock 'n' roll history sounding very realistic indeed.
It's a great pressing! My original copy did walkies many years ago so It's nice to rediscover its joys. Incidentally, the digital download doesn't seem to be available at the moment.
Michael Jackson. Thriller Via Tidal.
A work colleague commented that MJ would probably sound great on my system. He was right, this was thoroughly enjoyable.

Not rated very highly by the Van clan ....................... but I think it's great.

Highly recommended.
Very nice album Haim, its been on my Tidal list for ages (since someone on here recommended it). Giving it another run now - probably ought to look at purchasing it. Cheers N.

Yes, why? ELP were dreadful, overindulgent rubbish.
