Recorded in 1985 this album contains some of his best work .. IMO .. an excellent quality recording.  Great percussion by Luis Jardim ..

Surely it spans '77 to '85. And as far as I know Luis Jardim only appears on one song, from Goodbye Cruel World. 

HH .. you're right .. the cd was recorded in 1985 and is a "Best of" .. my comment alluded to it containing some of his best work up until 1985.

Black Star Riders - Heavy Fire.

Shades of Lizzy, with Mr. Gorham in top form.

A classic recording of Tosca, that doesn't apologize for taste in its bombastic greatness

Duke Garwood - Garden of Ashes.

From earlier today, this should appeal to all fans of Mark Lanegan or Richard Hawley ............it's on Tidal, so do have a listen.

Damien Rice O, WAV CD Rip.

Chilling to this after a Long Day!

Inspired by John above, this version of the classic 'She' is just wonderful.

Wanted to play something from Tidal, but some problems with Tidal. Both main system and 2nd system are not functioning with Tidal...., luckily I have 10.000 plus albums n my Melco...

I can't recall who recommended this to me, but it's probably my favourite Bach vocal album. It's just beautiful.

Porcupine Tree, Recordings. WAV CD Rip.

One of my favourite PT albums.

Mark Lanegan - Blues Funeral.

Last one for tonight.

Since I played Duke Garwood's album, above, how about his sometime collaborator, Mark Lanegan?

This dark, brooding album needs time to be appreciated, but the effort will be well rewarded.

P.S. Now that the Duke Garwood album has finished being Tidalised, I urge to you chaps to have a listen, it's a grower.

Yep would agree with you there the Garwood album is worthy of a listen.

Eric Dolphy - 'Naima'. CD rip. Three nice tracks from his last session in Paris, 1964 eighteen days before his tragic passing.
