This Speakers Corner, 180g reissue is superb! Great music, and brilliant sound quality (comparable to the recent Music Matters BN 33rpm reissue series).
EC's best album in years. Really enjoying it.
XTC - English Settlement (2LP - Virgin ) s/h at a shop near Geneva Main Station; vinyl in mint condition; jacket a bit "tired". sounds very 80'

Bought this one myself last week. Hadn't heard it for years, still a great XTC-record. Bought mine here for €12, vinyl mint condition.
New Vinyl
Old Vinyl from the Charity Shop for a $1
You like gaslight? Do you know horrible crows, live at the troubadour? And the wdr (German broadcast) of the revival tour with Brian fallon at cologne? Search for wdr, Brian fallon! the best Version of 59sound i know. and "the bridge" of dave hause.....
Curious to hear his Chopin Preludes No.28 compared to his last Paris Live concert back in 1990.
Elvis Presley. His first three LPs on 180 g white vinyl from Art Of Music (2014). I was surprised to come across this in Half Price Books because it is a 500 pressing edition from England. Digitally remastered, the vinyl is dead quiet and dead flat. Vintage sound to be sure, but the quality is very good.

Today's pick from the local store.
Johnny Burnett's and the Rock'n'Roll Trio, Bear Family, Vinyl. Been on meaning to get list for years!
From Amazon.
Double vinyl, arrived today. Can't wait to give it some air.
This, which arrived but minutes ago (3-LP, 3-CD, book, box and hi-res download)
What's the verdict then Kev?
Bought Eric Clapton and BB King 'Riding With The King' from HMV in Southport just before I travelled back to Brazil. Nice to be able to buy vinyl on the high street again.
What's the verdict then Kev?
Won't get my LP12 back until next week so can't give you a verdict on the records, but the CDs sound good, a big improvement on the Marinos and Diaments.
The extra material is a bit disappointing though - the stuff included is fine, it's the stuff JP has left out that's the problem...
As ever with these boxes, the quality of presentation is absolutely top-notch.
Rare 1st press. Always wanted this album. I just hope it's in the excellent condition advertised. Should arrive tomorrow.
Found a new copy of Dave Gilmours 5 LP box of Live In Gdansk in a book/music shop yesterday here in Rio. Looks like quite hard to find now in UK. reasonable price too which is rare for here. Box had a bit of damage which got me an extra 10% off.
