Finally got round to getting this after many mentions from Ewemon. Great sounding album. First listen and I find it very chilled out, I’m sure more listens will reveal the beauty of this album

Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa - Don't Explain
(2011)
More fine female vocals very different to AK of course, these are hard edged blues backed up by that Joe Bonamassa chap.
Today's listening so far
Calexico - The Thread That Keeps Us
(2018) CD
Aoife O'Donovan - Man in a Neon Coat: Live from Cambridge
(2016) CD Recorded on April 13, 2016 at The Sinclair in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The album features live trio performances of tracks from Aoife's critically acclaimed releases In The Magic Hour and Fossils, as well as covers of Joni Mitchell and Emmylou Harris classics.
Now ... Freddie King - Getting Ready
(1996) CD. Album originally released in 1971.
Keith Jarrett - Sun Bear concerts
Listening to Kyoto.
Seeing a few posts of DSOTM on here in recent days whetted my appetite for a bit of Floyd. I elected to go with this one.
Listening.
Richard Hawley. Hollow Meadows
A bit of Blues, Rock and Soul.
Now Playing.......
Madeleine Peyroux - Careless Love
Streaming on TIDAL......... A mention from CLIVE B & ALANP earlier today had me place this in the TIDAL queue and now taking it out for a spin....... The first track was gorgeous Clive, thanks for the recommendation and looking forward to the rest of the album......

Recommended as a scorching soul country blues crossover.
great picking
Prompted by posts on a new Hendrix release, I thought I dig out this box-set. Now giving disc 3 a play which, among other songs, has a live version of Little Wing - one of my favourite Jimi songs.
Cheers

Aoife O'Donovan - Man in a Neon Coat: Live from Cambridge
Streaming on TIDAL........ A mention from PATK above had me place this in the TIDAL Queue and now taking it out for a spin. The first track sounds mighty fine!
Anna Von Hausswolff - Dead Magic
The new album from Anna, it gets better with every play
Leonard Cohen - Recent Songs - vinyl (1979)
I bought this today from the Canal Trust Shop for £6. It is in really good condition, and sounding amazingly good in a very laid back way (Humbled in Loves makes you wonder whether it is supposed to be played at 45 rpm!). Wiki describes it as a return to his folk tradition with Jazz and Oriental influences. Very real and engaging. My collection started with his first “Love Songs” on CD.

The Goddamn Gallows. 7 Devils
simply The best band ever
A change of vibe, another new release
Alela Diane - Cusp
Bernhard Meyer - Murmuration
A new artist to me, wonderful tunes & playing. CD arriving tomorrow, listening to the download.

Now Playing......
Ferenc Snetberger - Titok
Ferenc Snétberger (guitar), Anders Jormin (double bass), and Joey Baron (drums).
Streaming on NAS......... A mention from HAIM RONEN above reminded me that I have not listened to Ferenc's Titok album in awhile. Love his guitar playing and with the bass & drums makes a wonderful trio. Sounding fantastic this lazy & sunny Saturday afternoon!

Harvest - SHVL 804, Harvest - 1E 064 o 05249
I got this from our Canal Trust Book shop for £6! Playing now with the demo 552DR. Sounds amazing. Fingers crossed that it continues without problems. No expert on precise identification.

It's a good 'un Phil. Trust me, it'll knock the likes of the umpteen anniversary, MFSL pressings etc. for six.
Having listened to the first side again and the CD (Harvest CDP 7 460012) I have the say I prefer the vinyl which has more sharpness and clarity. Anyone know if my CD which is not remastered is ok?
