At the concert, signed by the lady herself...

Triggered by the other post. Was always on my wishlist...

First TD live album post the death of its founder, Edgar Froese. Reviews have been generally very positive so I thought I'd give it a listen. Includes live versions of early TD classics such as Rubycon and Ricochet (OK the original of that was also live). Ordered direct from TD's Eastgate Music site for about half the price on the River site.

Eagerly awaiting delivery.

Couldn't resist when you get Jimmy, Jeff and Eric on 2 CDs on the river for a fiver. Good for the car! 

It's a book with explanations, photos of the artists and lyrics. Cd's are contained in each cover. Beatiful piece.

This is the first Leonard Cohen album I have ever bought and its exceptionally good..

Moon Wiring Club - When A New Trick Comes Out, I Do An Old One

For those (I'd guess 99%) of you to whom this lot are unknown, this is a triple CD set of their rare and unreleased weird hauntological electronica. If that doesn't mean much to you, it's the best I can do to describe a mixture of sampling, radiophonics, and break beats that (and you'll have to trust me on this) really comes into its own after dark. Most of their work is very creepy.  Moon Wiring Club website.

The promo video below covers this set and the new LP Exit Pantomime Control (see elsewhere), which is just brilliant (if you like this sort of thing).

A four-CD box set compilation of one of the great jazz labels of the 60s and 70s, featuring the likes of Stanley Turrentine, Ron Carter, Johnny Hammond, Freddie Hubbard, Geoorge Benson, Deodato, the Gilbertos, Hubert Laws, etc

Norman Granz Jazz at the Philharmonic complete set.  These are live recordings done in 40s with various combinations of talent spontaneous on stage, each CD has 4 sections, this is the way great jazz should be played.  OK, I'll fess up, I've had it for a year but everyone should know about it.

Read his biography he managed many of the greats by handshake, paid his talent before himself, never told a band what or how to record it was their own performance, created Verve records, collected modern art in the 50s, challenged the race issues in the 30s and 40s on stage, friends with Picasso, retired in Switzerland, and started a 2nd recording company called Pablo for his dear old friends who couldn't get a record deal in the 60s.  Some of the sweetest LPs I have in my collection which is about 2 dozen now.

The Stones new one. Was in Morrisons round the corner to find a reasonable bottle of red and saw it on the shelf. Listened to it as background tonight with Boy #2 nodding appreciatively and enjoyed it  - it's got a nice loose feel to it, and a grungy base [not bass] sound. Proper listen to follow, whenever I get the house to myself again...

I'm tempted by this new album as reviews have been generally positive - heard Radio4's Front Row presenters enthusing about it earlier in the week, commenting the Stones seemed to have coming full circle back to the raw blues. Looked at Quobuz last night and may plunge for the high res (how much!) download.
