What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XIV)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 31 December 2017
On the eve of a new year, it's time for a new thread.
Last year's thread can be found here:
Now Playing.......
Bently Caldwell - The Place That I Call Home
Streaming on NAS........ Taking out this album for another spin. Bentley has one hell of a voice and some driving music, works well for this Friday afternoon!
Billy Gibbons pre ZZ Top.
Barbra Streisand
Guilty - 24/44.1
Edward
Simply Red - Men and Women.
Heard - 'A Palinopsic Wind' from this album tonight. Investigation required.
Mind Over Mirrors - Bellowing Sun - https://mindovermirrors.bandcamp.com/
Loreena Mckennitt Radio DJ copy of a Westwood Concert series show.
Now Playing......
Stephen Fearing - Every Soul's a Sailor
Streaming on TIDAL........ Going with a mention from DAN STEEL and EWEMON above regarding Stephen so I thought I would take his latest released album out for a spin, and it is sounding mighty fine! The 'Secret of Climbing' album is available via preorder and on Vinyl only, if you preorder they will include a wave download version of the album as well. Cost is $25.00 and is a limited quantity. If I had a LP player I may have been interested but the NAS and TIDAL/Internet Radio are my only sources at the moment.
Now Playing..........
Adrian Crowley - Some Blue Morning
Streaming on TIDAL....... I had placed this album in the TIDAL queue but can not remember when. Not getting to it sooner was a mistake, great voice, at times almost reminds me of Sean Rowe with the baritone boom, really enjoying this album!
Now playing.......
Vincente Amigo. Un momento en el Sonido
Streaming on TIDAL....... A mention from TOBYJUG in the thread 'Let's prattle PRAT' recommended this album and I thought I would give it a spin. The first couple of tracks are sweet!
Now Playing........
Meg Baird - Don't Weigh Down The Light
Streaming on TIDAL........ Placed in the TIDAL queue recently and getting around to taking it out for a spin. Meg has one sweet voice and acoustic guitar, she is sounding fantastic!
Couldn’t sleep due to severe back and hip pain, so I’ve taken a few painkillers and spinning this fine album. Hoping for some relief. ????
Now playing............
Django Bates' Beloved - The Study of Touch
Django Bates (piano), Petter Eldh (double bass) and Peter Bruun (drums).
Streaming on NAS......... Getting close to closing down for the evening and listening to the fine touch of Django Bates' Beloved, sounding might smooth & sweet!
Don Cherry: Mu, First and Second Parts.
The Cars. Candy-O (1979). On HDCD from 1997. I'm demo'ing a new HP amp and this is a good test CD. Well recorded and well mastered with a wide stereo field, precise imaging, and hard percussion impact. Aside from all that, the music itself is pretty damned good.
Traveling Wilburys Collection (2 HDCD/DVD) from 1997. Listening to Volume I, another good recording for HP amp demo.
Julia Fischer - Mozart: Violin concertos Nos. 1, 2 & 5

Paul Weller - Stanley Road, following on after playing Wild Wood earlier in the week.
I surprised myself by liking this and his eponymous album, given I was never a fan of The Jam or Style Council. Saw him live at Brixton Academy back in the last century (supported by a Gallagher, I forget which) and enjoyed that too.

Very talented man despite having haircuts recently that look as if the barber was VERY pissed....

He's top of the bill at Victorious on Southsea Common today for anyone interested. (Not the barber).
