A nice trio jazz album....
Rumer - This Girl's In Love

Just lovely, lovely stuff.....

enjoy/ken
Sandford Townsend Band- Smoke from a Distant Fire original cover.
Primal Scream - Vanishing Point.
Dub, trippy soundscapes from Glasgow's finest. 
Bentley Caldwell - The Place That I Call Home. Following the numerous recommendations on this forum, I finally got this CD today and it is very good. I particularly like the track, The River.

One Take Radio Sessions
Unsure what to play but wanting something mellow, Mark Knopfler came to mind and this is yet another very good solo album in his very fine catalogue.
Released 2002 - A very pleasing listen. ????
Primal Scream - XTRMNTR (Exterminator)
More Jock Rock from Primal Scream.
This was the last album on Alan McGee's Creation Records, and one reviewer summed the album up as "War you can dance to".
Indeed!
(2002)
The Best of Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac
This eighty minute delight has come out for a play having seen a 'sort of' early pre-cursor to this double album. Released forty years earlier in 1972 Fleetwood Mac's Greatest Hits comprised basically a short list of most of Greeny's best with Mac (from 1968 - '71). This later album expands on the fine music he made with his band in those early years.
Kenny Wheeler - One of many
- Kenny Wheeler - Flugelhorn
- John Taylor - Piano
- Steve Swallow - Electric bass
Playing on Vinyl - Great Bob Dylan Box set.Brought it back in the 90's and so pleased I did as it contains a good round up of key tracks from his earlier albums
