Not the whole album but the tracks I have heard make this a simply stunning album from Jim Moray. Album of the year could end up being.

Out June 7th.

Or you can buy this month's Songlines magazine which comes with this Jim Moray album
Songlines....

Thought it was only one track that was available through them but see it is the whole album.

Their is also altd edition copy coming out.

Arrived today

Only 6 tracks in and wild opera is challenging, moody & on the way to magnificent.

If you have the no-man mixtaped (double dvd), then this CD complements the documentary and therefore essential.

Absolutly beautiful piece of minimal Techno.






Dean...

Early 70's classic album, still sounds as fresh today as it did back then. Great cover too.

Miserable sod makes great soulful music going to add some more of Van to my collection, superb.






Dean..

my favourite Van album

I'd only really heard stuff off of the Moondance album which I like alot, Brown Eye'd Girl is well overplayed though, so thought I'd try something else and glad I did as Veedon knocked my socks off, pfffff! just like that

In a word Dean..'ummm'.

I hate to be wishywashy in my reply but recently I have come to realise that wether or not people (not you but since the forum has a wider readership) like an album has a lot more to do with expectations and anticipations than actual content. In other words 'What are you expecting?'.

I like the album, I can easily see it finding it's way into my 'What are you listening to..' thread.

Is it a remarkable addition to the musical genre..? Probably not and critics will not have to look hard to find fault but, as I say, I enjoyed it and will again.

Sorry if that doesn't help matey but it's not quite black and white.

Also playing TT on the BS on my TT.

BTW, I downloaded the album from the freetracey site today and track 5 - 'Why Does The Wind?' is missing. Awaiting a reply from the supplier.

Queyras is from Aix en Provence. I had the opportunity to listen some live sessions. His interpretations are breathtaking.

Beautiful Music

Think I prefer this to Vol 1.
