Posted by: Richard Dane on 31 December 2017
On the eve of a new year, it's time for a new thread.
Last year's thread can be found here:
Trying what to get from Spirit of Turtle in super high res, while it’s nice I don’t belief this one will be selected...
Great, I guess I will get this one from Spirit of Turtle ...
Staying in Prokofiev...
Gary Moore
The Best Of The Blues - CD RIP
Edward
Now Playing.........
Ghazal - The Rain
Kayhan Kalhor (kamancheh), Shujaat Husain Khan (sitar, vocals) and Sandeep Das (tabla).
Streaming on NAS........ A beautiful album and I have not listened to it for awhile, the music is so sweet! Perfect way to kick off this Friday morning.........
Pollini/Abbado - Bartok piano concertos 1&2
I'm having difficulty finding something I really want to listen to, so this is marking time instead of my usual fallback in such situations, which is Radio 3.
Now Playing........
Anouar Brahem - Conte de I'Incroyable amour
Anouar Brahem (oud), Barbaros Erköse (clarinet), Kudsi Erguner (nai) and Lassad Hosni (percussion).
Streaming on NAS........... Some more beautiful and soothing music to slowly glide into this day. Released in 1992 and sounding mighty fine this morning........
Playing on Compact Disc - A fine dose of the EEls and their dry life observational songs.
On CD:-
John Martyn - Head and Heart
Andrea Beneventano trio - The Driver
Nice modern jazz.
Andrea Beneventano: piano; Francesco Puglisi: bass; Nicola Angelucci: drums.
The Crusaders - Those Southern Knights
Still sounds cool after all these years, well to me anyway. That is as cool as 'Dad's music' could ever sound (a quote from my kids).
On CD
Boy George & Culture Club - Life
Great album on deluxe CD. A present from Santa.
Gary Moore
Still Got The Blues - CD Rip
Edward
Very nice version of the symphonies of Sibelius...
Tina Brooks - Minor Move
Earl Klugh - Living Inside Your Love
....still on my trip down memory lane. Listening to this now with a proper HiFi (as opposed to my student rig back in the day), I can only admire the superb musicianship and wonderful arrangements. Belter!
In 24/96 - the new single, due out imminently.

Also, this morning The Groaniad named Ese & The Vooduu People as one of the acts to look out for in 2019!
Which was nice.
Playing on Vinyl - Great double album with 1 track studio the next live which is quite unique.
