Zombi - Escape Velocity

A little more heavy space rock is required from these boys, this thirty minute album will do nicely.

  Martin Scorsese Presents : The Blues.

  Finally getting round to watching / listening to the final DVD in this fine seven disc set.

 "PIANO BLUES - A Film By Clint Eastwood"

 "Director Clint Eastwood explores his life-long passion for piano blues, using a treasure trove of rare historical footage in addition to    

  Interviews and performances by such living legends as Ray Charles and Pinetop Perkins".

  I know I've posted this previously, but now I've watched all seven discs, this really is highly recommended for anyone with an interest

  in the history of The Blues, and it's on The River for not many pennies at all.

After going back many years for a bit of classic ELP I thought I go next for something new and very different:

A lovely album and the song Angel Flying Too Close To The Ground is beautifully emotional.

Oscar Peterson Trio -  Night Train

Safe, MOR, boringly predictable, deeply enjoyable....hell, we might even open a second bottle.

Now Playing............

Alejandro Amenabar - Mar Ardentro [The Sea Inside)

Alejandro Amenabar - Mar Ardentro (The Sea Inside) 

Streaming on NAS.........  Taking this movie soundtrack that someone had passed along to me out for a spin. Full orchestra with flowing melodramatic swings which fits the description of the movie which is based on the factual story of Spaniard Ramon Sampedro, who fought a thirty-year campaign in favor of euthanasia and his own right to die.

Dark jazz/ambient album. Sounds fine.

A couple more this evening , Terence Trent D'Arby  - Introducing the Hardline According To ,a brilliant debut album and then it appears it was all downhill after that.

Followed with Free  - Heartbreaker , their last hurrah after losing Andy Fraser but still top notch

1982 - Uk first pressing...

Beginning with the b-side first and  Neurotica which, as TFCSM from their debut album, gives me a sense of immediacy. If you don't live in the sticks, make sure the neighbours are out!

Boooom!

Trivia: DGM, which produces these albums, are, by  extreme coincidence, based in Salisbury.

This is new to me, is very, very smoky, and is very good. A steal at $3.50 too. 

So thank you!
