And this is a superb live album featuring material from Trespass, Nursery Cryme and Foxtrot. IMHO it's the best of their live albums, although sadly it's missing Supper's Ready.

Following ELP with the soothing Diana Krall and the Love Scenes album

Wow. That's some serious change of gear.

 

Hi Tony

Yeah BSS seemed so intense and I think its ELPs most "dense" recording, maybe I should have gone Tarkus or Trilogy

My shock was DK, whom I am no great fan of and  find  her extremely overrated. You could have gone for Bessie Smith and... well, you know where I am going with this. Whatever makes you tick though. Peace!

Collective Soul. Disciplined Breakdown. On CD from 1997. It's been a while since I played this and it struck a chord with me tonight so much so that I played it twice in a row. Accomplished alternative/post-grunge rock that 20-years-on stands the test of time.

Jen Cloher on Bandcamp

Her 4th record and album of the year 2017 on Australia's Double J radio station. Think Patty Smith. Melbourne based Cloher is married to Courtney Barnett and this sets the scene as the album was written and recorded in the build up to the same sex marriage vote here. Analysis Paralysis eloquently expresses her frustration. The standout track for me is Regional Echo which is written about regional towns off the tourist trail, "noisy miners" are birds local to the area. It is worth looking up the video on You Tube. The whole album has a raw, almost haunting feel to it in places and I have been playing it for several weeks.
