Now playing...................

Kacey Musgraves - Golden Hour

Kacey Musgraves - Golden Hour

Streaming on NAS..........   a recent purchase and taking out for a spin, Kacey is sounding mighty sweet, wonderful vocals, lyrics and music.

Fell in love with Kacey when I saw her perform on the NPR Tiny Desk, which can be seen here: Kasey Musgraves - August 2015. Worth the time to listen to this 23 minute set.

now, why do I keep returning to this album?

enjoy/ken

Absolutely no idea. I know many people like it, but I just cannot seem to connect with this album, despite many attempts.

Bill Evans - The Brilliant.

Recording of concerts the Bill Evans trio gave on August 31th and September 7th 1980 (Bill Evans would pass away on September 15th).

BILL EVANS - piano
MARC JOHNSON - bass
JOE LABARBERA - drums

I noticed Jeroen's choice and thought I'd join with another taken from the same dates. Principally ballads on this disc.

Rush - Grace Under Pressure - CD

After further speaker tweaks to the toe (not much now on my Sopra 2s with the right more than left), this is sounding really magical with sounds filling the room. Not on the list of top Rush favourites here of late, but now on mine.

i like it too, as also the dynamite wonderful tune.  But the sound of this last Ese is a bit average.  A bit sad....

[@mention:56335183628232089] - that is disappointing to hear. Voulez-vous dire, la qualité sonore est médiocre?

Nous avons travaillé très fort pour que l'enregistrement soit très bon. Je pense que la qualité sonore est excellente. J'espère que vous aimerez l'album quand il sera publié sur vinyle l'année prochaine.

Mitsuko Uchida - Mozart Piano Sonatas

This is a set which I can play when all else fails, or when I'm reading and just want to let it flow over me, or as today when I just want to escape this lousy weather and float away. Very effective and enjoyable.
