Some trax off the up and coming Joe Jackson album due out Jan 2019
What's your take on this material ewemon? I have everything he's done (except the Mike's Murder soundtrack) including some boots. He never fails to deliver at least VG or much better.
Now playing........
Ketil Bjornstad & Terje Rypdal - Life in Leipzig
Ketil Bjørnstad (piano) and Terje Rypdal (guitar).
Streaming on NAS........... Moving forward with Keith & Terje on this fine Sunday morning! Life is mighty sweet.........
(1983)
Hall & Oates - Rock 'N Soul Part1
Something cool, classic and easy listening while I faff about in the kitchen for twenty minutes prepping dinner for later this evening.
George Thorogood - Party Of One.
Just George and his guitar, doing the blues as only he can do.
One thing I've noticed with the ND 555 is that on albums with a solo voice and basic accompaniment, the room reverb comes through
loud and clear, and one is there in the moment with the singer ............ in fact, George and I are sharing a beer as we listen to this. 
My favourite pressing of one of my three favourite albums. This is the 1982 RCA/JVC Japanese pressing:
Ray Brown trio - Summerwind, live at the Loa
CD, 2017. I like Joan's voice and Dylan tunes.
Double vinyl LP compilation from the early 90's not a bad record on this one.
The Bill Evans Trio Live

What, you mean he’s drinking a beer AND playing guitar at the same time? Respect!
