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.
Anyway, links:

Been listening to this a lot. Really, really good.
Last night I listened to the solos of great background musicians. Firstly, what would Bowie have been without this man on guitar:
Secondly, I can not imagine the sound of early 70's Stones with out the piano of:
Incredible emotional power
Nice choice, David!
Now it's the weekend i'm cat power free until Monday! : )
Auiophile HQ180 vinyl - manufactured at RTI Acoustech 2007 recut : )
This is one of my most played albums, she has a way of singing in the minor key that is so soulful, and here the backing band are making show just right.
The purr-fectly pressed vinyl does the music justice...
enclosed in an anti-static inner sleeve, the record has no static at all, and didn't need a clean..
YOU ARE STATIC POWER FREE! : )

All You Can Eat - Sounds pretty tastey too!

Just heard a Jerry Garcia solo track on Radio Paradide, so seemed an opportune time to play this.

Hi kk, I was just saying hi really, as I hadn't spotted your posts lately.
In case you didn't know though, Scuba is Paul Rose, owner of Hotflush Recordings, home of Mount Kimbie, so you just might like Triangulation. It sounds a little like Burial in places, though maybe hasn't the same consistent quality (What has?). Have a listen to 'Latch' and 'So You Think You're Special' if you're curious.
He has a new album out next month, and anything Hotflush is buy on sight for me just now.
Hi there Chief,
Yeah i haven't been posting much. Christmas was busy and to be honest i was just listening to music and not surfing much.
Will check out your recommendations as always.

I'm never quite sure which I prefer, the Kodaly or Britten. They're both good and Truls Mørk has the technical chops to make these difficult scores sound effortless.
Why don't i listen to more Gomez?! This can be had for a penny!

On CD:-
Tea time stomp.
Hard disk
Because every woofer needs a little Ray Brown in its life
Just great pop/rock/prog songwriting from Randy McStine. Looking forward to his new release which features Colin Edwin & Gavin Harrison.
