2016 -  Tidal...

Ray Lamontagne, Till The Sun Turns Black, WAV Cd Rip.

I could play this until the Sun comes up.

New vinyl...

Recorded with Glenn Gould's piano, CD 318, at studio sessions on February 6 and 9, and May 20, 1963, Evans used the then controversial method of overdubbing three different yet corresponding piano tracks for each song. 

The album earned Evans his first Grammy Award in 1964 for Best Jazz Instrumental Album, Individual or Group. It received a 5-star review in Down Beat in 1963.

I could have  sworn you were going to say it was because there was a ginger hobbit in it.  I do apologise unreservedly in advance...

I like the sound quality across both these issues.

Just purchased my 4th copy if this recording. This the new James Guthrie, Joel Plante and Bernie Grundman remaster. Sounding a bit different!

It might take a while to get used to this different mix.

Halfway through this now, and I think my 1977 Japanese pressing (or even my very battered UK first press) will be the go-to-ones for the best album from the Floyd's imperial phase.

(1971)

On with some more 'Floyd and this one is the Guthrie 2011 remaster.

Testing some discounted albums at Qobuz, this one seems to be good...

From 1979, the annus mirabilis of popular music, this masterpiece. Krautrock, deep dub, post-punk, space rock, subsonic bass and electronica all combine to create one of the most remarkable albums ever to have come out of these islands. The playing of Wobble and (especially) Keith Levene is extraordinary. UK first press from November '79. Sadly my tin isn't shiny like this one!
