Bach also composed some beautiful music for the lute.

Stephan Schmidt performs them very well.

Not played this for donkeys years. Brian Eno 'Before and After Science' his the fifth studio album. Side 2 begins to hint of Eno's move into avant-garde and ambient music.

Originally vinyl released in December 1977. The first pressings of the album included four offset prints by Peter Schmidt which I still have framed.

Original UK vinyl. Anyone remember that cover image? A poster version of it seemed to be on every bedroom/living wall in the mid/1980s!

Although, G, his move into the ambient/avant-garde field had begun two years previously, with the release of Discreet Music...

Hope you and yours are well.

Peter Gabriel - Peter Gabriel 3 (Melt).

Peter's "So" album seems to be the popular choice on here, but this is even betterer .......... IMHO, of course.

Original vinyl from 1976, Vangelis 'Albedo 0.39'

Albedo 0.39 was the first non-classical LP I bought. The best of Vangelis' output IMO.

I'm quite a fan of Kasabian. Great fun, don't take themselves too seriously and are almost touching on 'Spinal Tap' with some of their stuff! 48:13 a cracking album, but I think West Ryder Lunatic Asylum edges it. New album out soon too...

I see what you mean, regarding the Spinal Tap thing. Hints of Primal Scream there too, I feel.

This just arrived today, so, playing now.

Kasabian - Kasabian.

Their debut album, I believe, and at 1p a pop, smashing!

The Brenda Lee Story - Her Greatest Hits 

Little Miss Dynamite, because of her eponymous hit "Dynamite" and her diminutive size, had an amazing voice. If you remember the late 50s and early 60s you will remember Brenda Lee. She sang rockabilly, pop and country music, and had 47 US chart hits during the 1960s, and is ranked fourth in that decade surpassed only by Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Ray Charles. She was one of the first international pop stars.

I bought the vinyl recently for £4.99 and it's been cleaned up nicely by my Loricraft PRC4. It's available on CD now at £32.67! Here is the track list.

Track Listings
Disc: 1
1. Johnny One Time
2. All Alone I Am
3. Sweet Nothin's
4. As Usual
5. Dum Dum
6. You Can Depend On Me
7. Coming On Strong
8. Losing You
9. Fool #1
10. Jambalaya (On The Bayou)
11. Emotions
12. Just Out of Reach
13. Anybody But Me
14. We Three (My Echo, My Shadow, And Me)
15. Thanks A Lot
16. I Want To Be Wanted
17. You Always Hurt The One You Love
18. Too Many Rivers
19. My Whole World Is Falling Down
20. Break It To Me Gently
21. That's All You Gotta Do
22. I'm Sorry

Well worth acquainting yourself with her beautiful voice and music.
