David Bowie: Hunky Dory. My fav Bowie album. 

Mine too. And I read in my paper recently that it had been voted the top Bowie album.

So soothing, this album.

If you want smooth sooth,  try this one

When I compiled my Diana Krall ' to buy' list a few weeks back this album was fourth on it, Mike, so having got the first three this one will be ordered soon.

Elle King: Love Stuff. An interesting mix of raw soul and blues genre styles. A corking debut IMHO...

Only problem is its CD only,  I've never found a download.  (???)  must be some issue with copyright.

This is a terrific album, which I've been listening to a lot since buying it following a recommendation here.

HH, I will join you with the smaller version. I consider it one of my two best discoveries of last year. The other one is Jan Lundgren's Man in the Fog.

I've not listened to this album for years but it's one of those that instantly takes me back in time.  The remixed version has better sq and I don't recall the vocals in the background from Noel on track one on the original.  Flac via Audirvana/Hugo

More Durutti Column. This one's the 1990 album Obey The Time, UK first press on Factory Records. A much harder-edged sound than DC fans were accustomed to:
