Playing on Compact Disc on Naxos - Perfect music to cook breakfast too after a winter walk to blow out the cobwebs

Deep Purple

Purpendicular - CD RIP

Playing on Vinyl - Brilliant Sonny Boy Williamson 6 album box set on Chess records with loads of alternative takes and rareities .

Back from the sales,  mission accomplished- nice cashmere and merino jumpers purchased. 

Moving onto Aliens, objectively nowhere near as good as The Book of Invasions but still contains many great tracks some of which are Horlsips best IMO. Can’t agree with the review Roon retrieves.

Goldfrapp - Black Cherry

Bought this a few weeks ago from local charity shop. Giving it another listen as I am home alone.

Volume is UP to 11

Now playing.....

Make sure you listen to his new album due out Jan.

Reading this Concrete Shelves interview with Tony Buck.

Listening to Drive By

Double vinyl released 2018 - On the ‘Lillywhite Sessions’, Ryley Walker and the similarly indebted trio of drummer Ryan Jewell and bassist Andrew Scott Young cover Dave Matthews’ infamously abandoned 2001 art-rock masterpiece of the same name, a record where he and his band indulged a new adult pathos and a budding musical wanderlust. ????

Playing on Compact Disc - Brilliant debut from The Killers.

Earlier mention of Ben Watts album Hendra led me to checking it out on Tidal, great album, this is equally good and worth a listen too, Ben Watt Fever Dream on Tidal

Now Playing.........

Diana Krall - The Look of Love

Streaming on NAS............ Diana is sounding mighty sweet this morning, a wonderful cure for dark and cold mornings, she certainly brightens and warms up the room with her presence!

Ben Watt - Hendra

Streaming on TIDAL.........  A mention from EWEMON and GAZZA peaked my interest and decided to take it out for a spin and the first track is might nice!  Looking forward to the rest of the album.......

Fantastic 4 track 12" from Motown and Blue Note celebrating both Marvin's and Blue Note's 75th birthdays.

This reminds me of an old fraternity drinking song:

"The results, they were horrid,

All boobs and no forehead,

Three gonies and a purple goatee"
