Ending the evening with the great Melody Gardot...
On vinyl...
Eva Cassidy - Nightbird
I slightly prefer CD2 on this wonderful double live album but tonight am listening to CD1 and am now confused as to why I preferred CD2. The entire album is just so engrossing.
So sad Eva is no longer with us.
Robbie Robertson & The Red Road Ensemble, Music for Native Americans. Forgot I had this CD until I ripped it yesterday, really fabulous album inspired by Robertsons own Mohawk heritage, well worth a listen and despite my disappointment with the sound quality of older cds this sounds pretty good but a tad dull, available on Tidal too.
Agnes Obel - Aventine
On vinyl...

Rick Wakeman - The Six Wives of Henry VIII
Having enjoyed his concert last night, I thought I'd start the day with more from the man. I haven't played this in ages, but last night he played the piece, Jane Seymour, from this album.
Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow
Memories In Rock - Live In Germany - CD Rip

Having another listen to this great album...
Yes - Progeny, Seven from '72

Personal Appeal by R Stevie Moore.
Released 2013 - Fine album from the Grandfather of DIY. ????
Playing on Compact Disc on Naxos - Delightful Vivaldi Cello Concertos to lift the Monday Morning work Blues.
Playing on Compact Disc - Dry observational songs about the human condition from America's The Eels.
