What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.VIII)

Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011

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.

First play in a long time.

Have kuma to thank for getting me into this band ,years ago.

Stu.

That's a great album - my fave platter of 2011 in fact. Have you heard the first album?

Kevin,

I have had Mirrored on vinyl for a few years now.

I bought it after a recommendation by kuma.

Just got it out of the rack for a play later.

Stu.

Or even better, buy a ticket to the show at Shepherds Bush, and see if he has a copy for sale on the merchandise stand. Can't beat seeing this stuff live.

Google CD services Dundee and give them a call. They said they may have a few spare last week - may be a bit late now though.

They are going well cheap £3.05 inc p&p on amazon at the mo.

Good music though.

Stu.

Haha!  Sorry about that Stu.  Full time bifocals for myself.    Best image i could find quickly.  I certainly am enjoying the set.  The company does box sets for quite a few jazz artists.
