On the eve of a new year, it's time for a new thread.
Last year's thread can be found here:
Enchanting album of Vivaldi - Playing on Compact Disc on the Philips label
Fine playing as well
Now Playing......
Andy Bey - Tuesdays in Chinatown
Andy Bey (piano, vocals), Ron Carter (bass), Mino Cinelu (percussion), Marty Ehrich (clarinet, bass clarinet, flute), Barry Sinclair (viola), and Earl Gardner (flugelhorn).
Streaming on NAS....... Starting the day with Andy wonderful & unique vocals and great musicians in the band.......
A rather laid back affair but Amos Lee has an interesting voice and he pens some decent songs on this his third album .Excellent supporting cast and produced by Don Was
Billy Butler - Don't be that way
- Eddie Davis - Sax
- Billy Butler - Guitar
- Wild Bill Davis - Organ
- Oliver Jackson - Drums
Nice guitar / organ jazz. Recorded in 1976.
After the discussion earlier regarding Ram thought it was time to give Red Rose Speedway from Wings a spin for an early solo McCartney fix.
2011 - CD (NAS - wav)...
Playing on Vinyl on Charisma Records 1978 - Peter Gabriel's 2nd solo album
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - The OMD Singles.
Joining in with the '70s vibe ........... it's easy to forget just how good these guys were at writing catchy choons.
Thought I'd listen to George Harrison and Aii Things Must Pass but decided to go for the Apple Jam part of the set for a change.Essentially George plus Derek & The Dominos they seemed a strange addition at the time but all these years later I am pleased we have them

Alan, that album is a gap in my collection - must remedy that asap! Any good compared to the others?

Tidal. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin II I planned to have Led Zeppelin I to IV today and started with Zep I before reading former pages of this thread. After reviewing former posts I realised I was not the only one in the Zep mood today.
Geza Anda
Brahms: Piano Concerto No. 2 / Grieg: Piano Concerto Op. 16

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV - Japanese SHM CD rip.
I can go with that idea!
As you're into Zep, treat yourself to one of these Japanese SHM CD imports.
There's much love for these, here on the Forum, and they're generally held to be the best yet, including Jimmy Page's remasters.
Chet Baker & Paul Bley - Diane
Beautiful mellow music by Chet Baker and Paul Bley.
(2000)
Air - The Virgin Suicides
Not the cheeriest of subjects but their fine familiar electronica sets the scene to haunting and dark scenes and subject matter, yet this can also be listened to as a piece of nicely chilled music. Quite a change from their debut album.
Now Playing........
Sean Rowe - Her Songs
Streaming on TIDAL....... Sean singing six cover songs of female songwriters and he does a mighty fine job!
