Standard CD I already have will see me through. Just how ridiculous are some of these rip offs re-master/mixes box sets getting?

PLANK - Hivemind

Hey Denis! Where have you been? Is all well with you?

Love that Plank track BTW, Maconie played it the other day. Vinyl LP pre-ordered.

Hi Kevin,

I moved home (to my Sisters) about 4 weeks ago, so music listening is limited to laptop/internet until Sept. I will then move into my new house and get vinyl spinning again.

Denis

Good to hear you're still with us!

Dennis there you are! I only texted KW yesterday to ask If he had heard from your good self. I intended to give you a ring but life got in the way. Anyway good to see you are back with us my friend.

Regards Graham.

Really enjoyed this. Thank you. 

Probably been flogged to death but, (finally!) the upcoming Led Zeppelin re-reissues. Hopefully Jimmy has employed a mastering engineer who knows what's what this time; my ears bleed every time I listen to the previous versions of Led Zeppelin II on CD.

Touch and Flee is the new recording from Neil Cowley Trio, and marks a defining moment in the evolution of the band. It is their bravest, most daring album to date, spotlighting the ever- increasing brilliance of Cowley as a composer. With long time band mates, Evan Jenkins on drums and Rex Horan on bass, they jump headlong into new territory to present what they describe as "our concert hall record" for an altogether deeper listening journey. Gone are the familiar hook laden tunes, repeating riffs and pounding crescendos, replaced, in the main, by shifting, expansive melodies, longer elegant passages, and a broader brush stroke on Cowley's blank canvas

Songs to the North Sky is the remarkable and bold new work by Tim Garland. The first half of this double album features Lighthouse, Garland s expandable small group celebrating a new chapter to mark its tenth year. Garland and the astonishing percussion of Asaf Sirkis are joined here by three of the most talented pianists working in jazz today: Jason Rebello, Geoffrey Keezer and John Turville. Bassist Kevin Glasgow and guitarist Ant Law are newcomers to the Lighthouse project, but typically, Garland has devised perfect spaces in which their two singular talents can flourish. Garland himself has rarely played with such exhilarating freedom. Songs to the North Sky, for orchestral strings, both jazz and classical percussion, and Garland as soloist, takes up the other half of this recording. It reflects Garland s ten years association with (and frequent displacement from) northeast England, its constantly changing cloudscapes and wild seas. In its instrumental virtuosity and compositional sophistication, Songs to the North Sky is the closest thing yet we have to the Full Garland. This will delight existing fans, and serve as an ideal primer for those yet to be acquainted with one of the most remarkable British musicians of his generatio

Really? I cannot imagine the raison d'etre for that one.

Isn't it time he just quietly slid away as he is in danger of sullying a great (distant) past? I say this as someone who owns every single JT release on CD and vinyl-and have not had a record player for 20 years.

I'm hoping there are some on sale at the gig, on the 22nd @ The Hawth, Crawley.  Release date is the 21st!

Spoon's latest.
