  The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced.

  I've mentioned this fab album twice already this morning, on two other Music Room topics ............... resistance is useless ................

  what a debut, and still as jawdroppingly good as ever, IMHO. 

Now Playing........

Anouar Brahem - The Astounding Eyes of Rita

Anouar Brahem (oud), Klaus Gesing (bass clarinet), Björn Meyer (bass) and Khaled Yassine (darbouka, bendir)

Streaming on NAS.........  A wonderful album to start the day, perhaps my favorite one by Anouar (until I play another), simply beautiful!

George Harrison

Live in Japan - Tidal HiFi

Brillant live album from George.

Now Playing........

Anouar Brahem - Astrakan Cafe

Anouar Brahem (oud), Barbaros Erköse (clarinet) and Lassad Hosni (bendir, darbouka).

Sam Brown - Stop, just had to dig this out after hearing her on her dad's album previously 

 

Hi Alan,

If you don't have it, I highly recommend Sam Brown's album - Box. Fabulous songwriting, musicianship & recording.

Buy direct here - http://www.misssambrown.com/sh...4484841/box/10952895 

Also, watch out for a Re-mastered brand new pressing of 43 Minutes! on Sam's web site (above).

Years since I've listened to this special album which was dedicated to the victims of the 9/11 tragedies that occurred just days after recordings were finished.

After listening to this album (above), I feel compelled to post another YouTube of Second Skin.  If you have 15 minutes, this includes Jenny Conlee of The Decemberists (and partner of drummer Steve Drizos) on Hammond B3.  The lady can play.  Lets get funky.  If you have the time and/or interest I hope you enjoy.

Black Coffee

A cracking album released earlier this year with Beth and Joe Bonamassa on fine form as ever. Their previous collaborations and album releases have been taken from their multitude of live performances, this one was all created in studio.
