On the eve of a new year, it's time for a new thread.
Last year's thread can be found here:
Fink's Sunday Night Blues Club
Dave Marshall, you are bad
On red vinyl, and sounding way better than a download I bought,
and now this on blue vinyl - a colourful evening!
A marriage made in heaven, only when your hungry for pot noodle.
Jeff beck
Truth - CD Rip
It was a song from this album in 1971 (aged ten) that i heard on "Top of the Pops" that first got me into music "Love Is Blue", i could not believe what i was hearing or that you could say so much with a guitar. i have been a fan of Jeff's music ever since.

Soyuz - Qobuz Streaming
I have never heard of Gazpacho so first time listening to their music, half way through this album really enjoying what I am hearing, will not be surprised if I start buying some of their albums.

Hi Edward, I believe you have a really good journey of discovery ahead of you. Personally I don't think they have made a bad album, however Demon, March of Ghosts, Missa Atropos and Night stand out for me.
Enjoy, Simon.
"EDIT" BTW I just had to put this on again
A forum favourite from days gone by. Great album and he is a really nice guy.
Continuing the trawl through my Van Morrison collection - Down the Road, which seems perfect for a warm summer evening
Because - The Beatles (from ‘Abbey Road’)
Actually perfect. I just watched the documentary ‘It Was 50 Years Ago Today’ and listened to Sgt Pepper straight after, but Abbey Road is the album I keep coming back to time and again. It rounds off a pretty lovely weekend.
My goodness, this place is such a goldmine of musical talent.
Like this one more than his most recent album....
Now Playing.......
The Robert Cray Band - Shame And A Sin
Streaming on NAS...... released 25 years ago and still sounding mighty fine today!
Goerner’s Chopin gets better with familiarity - his playing is so transparent you don’t need a score to follow his fingers, and while his nocturnes don’t ‘sing’ like Pires’, there is a great balance between feeling and an intellectual deliberation.
Cheers

Norah Jones -Day Breaks, I think I am finally getting to grips with this album and finding it a lot more accessible than previous plays
