The Forgotten Melodies OP. 38 were my introduction to Medtner's magical music via Marc-Andre Hamelin. Here is a more graceful interpretation performed by Polina Leschenko:
A very good album, get's quite some spins over here...
Well overdue for a listen and sounding superb tonight.
Massive Attack - Mezzanine
Gorillaz-Humanz
Sigur ros- Aegis byrjun
Boz Scaggs - Fade Into Light (Streaming)
CD1.
A miracle that I didn't hear this one so often at hifi shows, typical album for that...
An eccentric listening day...
Radio Paradise this morning, followed by (all FLAC from CD rips or Qobuz downloads):
The Beatles - Revolver (from the stereo box set)
Ryan Adams - Prisoner (so-so IMHO)
Beatrice Rana - Chopin Preludes & Sonata #2
Ana Popovic - Can You Stand The Heat? ( a nice slinky version of Robert Palmers Every Kind Of People)
Susanne Sundfor - The Silicone Veil (odd, distinctly odd)
Selections from Paul Simon - The Complete Albums Collection
Aoife O'Donovan - The Magic Hour
Leonard Cohen - Live In Dublin
Joseph Arthur - Our Shadows Will Remain
And finally, Tift Merrit - Another Country (a personal favourite)
'Night All,
Vlad
CD recorded in 1992, my copy from 2011. The 4 interpreters forced me to give a spin to this album. I think Biondi was at his best by those days.
LP1...
Big Big Train - Grimspound, ltd edition frosted clear vinyl...
Last one for the day....
On vinyl...
Thanks go to Clive B for recommending this one, I love it!

Thanks Edward that's another one added to the list.
Even though ALW is composition-wise a bit on the repetitive side for me, I do like giving parts of this a spin now and again:
