Hi Karl,

have you got the CD or Vinyl?

Both are available, but the vinyl is expensive (for my budget anyway)

Just having a free sample on spotify... sounds very good

Not so much 'what are you listening to', but 'what have you been subjected to.'

A Christmas album was on in out local Indian restaurant, the food is excellent, but the music today was abhorrent. I am pretty 'Bah humbug' most Christmas's but this I could not believe.

Lady GaGa 'Christmas Tree'
Imagine the most witless sketch show trying parody rap music by doing a Christmas song they would release, well it isn't that good. Please do not play any longer than you can bear, it does not get any better and has absolutely no redeeming qualities.


Almost tempted to say come back Kevin Roland all is forgiven, but I am not that forgiving.

Very nice, and a kind of return to form, to me - though the wonderful 'Dreamboat Annie' will always take some beating.

Typical poor sounding, over-compressed modern recording though.

Amen.

The title track ( of Red Velvet Car) is old school Heart imho

Received this today too. Now that's more like it in the sound quality department.

HighFid3lity - I am a huge 'Heart' fan and my all time favorite will always be 'Dreamboat Annie' but whilst I do have 'Little Queen' I haven't played it much. I will play it asap and report back.
