The first batch of four is just wonderful, I should get the second batch of three new releases later this week.

Perfect antidote against the large bunch of 'nutters' populating roads in Malaysia.

Not just in Malaysia ...

You mean that there are also 'nutters' on the roads in Surrey and on the Autobahn too?

--------------------------------------------------

They are everywhere.

You know the old joke:
Radio: "We have a warning of a driver going in the wrong direction on the motorway."
Driver:"What do you mean one, there are hundreds."

There's a series of 'public improvement films' that should help matters on the road, if followed carefully:

Nice one munch. On the black stuff I presume?
I dont have it on the black stuff.
I have a top cd of it though.
Sounds great through the N/DAC.

I ripped my DVD-A disc. That also sounds great on the DAC although 'Kamakiriad' and 'Morph The Cat' sound better still as they are higher resolution

And now for something completely different! Keilberth's Ring part II has distinguished singing but I find Keilberth, surprisingly, a bit plain.

I'm going that way as well, but slowly because they cost 2 - 3 times the price of my ordinary CDs and there is such a lot of great music!

Subtle but rewarding slice of House music from the pioneers of British Electronic music.

Mick Karn 'Bestial Cluster', great start, but does fade after that.

Dean,
I didnt know they were classed as House music?
One learns something every day.
Good album though.
Stu

Well, thats not really correct in their early career they are Industrial, mid 80's is Proto-Techno and this one album is their addition to the House music canon, like all good bands they are not afraid to experiment.

Haim,
These twofers are great, amazon had a promotion running for quite a while with nice discounts. I bought quite a few and still have to catch up listening to all of them.
Cheers ... Oliver

Oliver,

I have five or six Philips Duos, all purchased more than ten years ago. My favorite by far is their Mozart's Piano Trios performed by the Beaux Arts.
