2 good tracks out of 13 not good VFM.

Steven Wilson - An End to End the second track from the forthcoming Cover Version VI single.

Cocteau Twins - Garlands

Scritti Politti - Cupid & Psyche 85

System Of A Down - Toxicity - piano cover by vkgoeswild (Viktoriya Yermolyeva posted above). An amazing array of covers performed by this wonderful pianist.

Nanci Griffith - One Fair Summer Evening

When the Yardbirds split they reformed as Renaissance and Led Somethingorother - Renaissance released a great album then then completely changed their line-up and came back even stronger; what ever happened to those New Yardbirds?

This dropped through the letterbox this morning. Thought I would play this Hoffman remastered DCC CD versus the two other masterings I have of this album - my original CD from way back when and the Rhino rerelease of a couple of years back. First off it is not that easy to hear much difference between them. They all sound good in the context of this album. If I had to choose I reckon the Rhino just sneaks it - a little louder but not my much but a bit fuller on the bass.

I used to have a copy of Jimmy Ruffin Sings the Top Ten until some nameless b*****d nicked it.

The Gold CDs, have only played Harvest so far but it sounds great and unlike many others I actually like the packaging.

I was looking through my vinyl the other day and saw this realising I hadn't played it for may be 10 years or so. Might have to go dig it out. Saw her play about 20 years ago or something and she was quite beguiling.
