Like returning to a favourite old pair of jeans and boots...
How can I click the 'like' switch five times? A progressive rock favourite for me too.

A different Genesis with the departure of Peter Gabriel but its always been one of my favourites.
I'm a great fan of all the Wainwrights but love this album by Rufus

The music is good. They played some of their (at that time) new stuff from the ' On every street' album. Some classics are missing like telegraphy road. The sound quality could be better.

Nice with a glass whilst doing the chateaubriand...shocking sound quality though!

Kevin-W posted:Classic Records 200g vinyl version. My favourite album after PG, it's their most adventurous sonically I think.
None better. An all-time classic. I still enjoy it today as much as I did when it was released. Can't really pay the album as higher compliment than that can I?

A change of pace with the wonderful Peter Green and a few guests that aren't too bad either!...
I was initially impressed with this mainly for the quality of the musicianship and reproduction but the more I've listened the more I just like the music.
The first CD of a four disc set. Wonderful music sic.
1977 - Double Vinyl - U.K. First pressing...
Mike Oldfield
Amarok - 16bit 44.1kHz Wave

Goldfrapp: Black Cherry. CD Rip.
Inspired by Kevin-w's choice earlier in the thread 
Finally up and running after my Ethernet switch self terminated, CD rip being streamed via Wi-Fi and so far so good, the connection is holding.

Turn the volume up a bit there Yeti'
Will do! 
A really excellent album from SV. Edgy and ambitious - very satisfying.

John Hicks Trio: Something to live for
Playing Billy Strayhorn tunes.
After a long walk on a balmy 65F degrees day, a rare February weather unseen around here for the last 50 years. Country roads are full of shiny Corvettes cruising in the breeze.
