Streaming Tidal

Sandy Denny is my all time favourite female singer-songwriter (and singer). And this track is one of my favourite of her songs. Absolutely beautiful!

The USA version with Paint it Black first out of the traps. 

 

Steve, have you had a listen to the mono box, (posted above), yet?

Remastered, and in mono, it's back to Dansette Days ................................ woohoo!

And ............... it's on Tidal. 

Not listened to it Dave and to be totally honest it passed me by when it was released. I will put that right and try some albums on Tidal.

Good rock from CBP. I like this band a lot and this is my favourite studio album of theirs, it starts off sedately but then hammers on from there getting more raucous as it progresses

Doyle Bramhall ll - Rich Man.

Doyle, best known as a sideman to Eric Clapton, has produced a masterclass in taste and soul.

Probably my album of the year ................. highly recommended, and available on Tidal.

New one for me Dave - enjoying this a lot at the moment on Tidal.  Good call.  Cheers N.

One of the coolest albums of the year. Let Me Get There with KV is a treat and the wicked A Wonderful Seed is just vintage Hope.
