With 2012 almost upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.

Another favourite from a while ago on the original vinyl
Little Feat "Rocky Mountain Jam"
On Vinyl:-
I think this just pre-dates the more famous title. Badfinger at their most creative before tragedies struck.
These days, I can't stop listening to Hadouk Trio - Utopies.
Mike Oldfield "Tubular Bells"
June Tabor & the Oyster Band:
Has really grown on me....
After a weekend of Bruce, this now more suits my mood.
On LP - from 1973 with Charlie Mariano on top form, just out of playing with Eberhard Weber, and a short stint with these German fusion guys (bit like Weather Report) - great stuff.
A Snapper Music Label compact cassette from 1997 : )
A magical trip of a jazz trio lead by a meaty Bosendorfer.
on vinyl
Bach Brandenburg Concerto: No.1, 2 & 6: Karl Haas/London Baroque Ensemble
Crippled Black Phoenix.
(Mankind) The Crafty Ape.
If you like your prog then this deserves a listen.

Not this time. Really enjoying this.
Shades of PF & PT with their own inimitable style.

On CD, Why? 'cos it's Rory G:-
On CD, it's rather good:-
