Coming from the other end of the spectrum, and knowing Green Carnation as 'that stuff Tchort does', it sounds quite upbeat to me
A bit of Acid Jazz fun(k), on CD:

Neighbours out so volume up and this album really comes alive. Oh, yes!
It's such a good strong album Mike which led me on to finding their forerunners Evanescence...

(1970)
Joining Graeme with this one, the first Genesis LP that I ever bought. Ripped to FLAC from the 1994 Definitive Edition remastered CD.
On CD:-
Paul McCartney - McCartney
A promo CD of a forthcoming album a PR sent me. Not bad on first listen - 60s style soul/funk from Portugal. I like the cover - the creases and ring marks are part of the artwork.
The New Brahms Album from Trio Wanderer, great...
Memories from my youth and I still find the album enjoyable today. I wonder became of Steve Hillage?
On vinyl.
Having enjoyed his 'History' double CD the other day, I thought I'd dig out this one. Similarly enjoyable.
First spin of new vinyl. I have the original on vinyl so it's going to be interesting to compare the two...

Hi MDS,
I have the same album on vinyl, plus a couple of others..he's 64 now and still active musically...he certainly made a cracking album or two..

Hi Nigel.
My original album was of course vinyl but I got a CD version a few years back to see if I still liked the album. I did. Glad to hear Mr Hillage is still active. I might look up one or two of his other albums.
Mike
Certainly has that Tulsa sound
