Its what I'm listening to at the moment as I continue to 'burn in' my recently acquired NDS...and it works! Cheers Jeff A.
I can't see your image, not sure what happened.
Oh! I just followed your earlier instructions ie"copy image address" from the drop-down via Amazon. I can see the image which is why I thought it had worked.
Not sure what that means, but if you are seeing it on the forum page then I would assume you are fine. Also see where you had Photobucket success again. One or the other should get you through. Take care.

Don't see much Runrig played here Edward, well done!

Triggered by the conversation on Simon's return from France thread, a Sandy night. First Rendezvous on the kitchen Qb while cooking a chicken and casserole for tomorrow. Some lovely originals, and a wonderful Candle in the Wind.
Followed by the demos CD from the Boxful of Treasures box set. Some fairly ropy SQ at times, but it doesn't matter, the songs are wonderful and the simple accompaniments show off the songs and Sandy's voice.

From Sandy to Gram, pioneer of English Foll-rock to pioneer of country-rock. The Burritos's Gilded Palace of Sin is a great album, great songs and great performances.

I'll be seeing him at Cropredy this year, sure to be one of the highlight sets.
And complete change of genre for the last album before bed. 1st play of the rip of a CD I picked up a week ago in a charity shop in Southend, interesting to hear this edition of the concertos, well played by ASMF, brilliantly conducted by Marriner.
Amarok, Hunt via Tidal.
Another quality Polish Prog discovery to me. Mariusz Duda of Riverside Is a guest vocalist amongst others.

I bought a 5 CD set at Christmas for lass than a tenner. It has the following CDs
1. The North Star, Grassman and Raven
2. Sandy
3. Like an Old Fashioned Waltz
4. Rendezvous
5. Gold Dust Live at the Royalty (The Final Concert)
The vinyl is so expensive even in Oxfam. I find many of her songs make me feel sad. I liked her more with Fairport Convention. I only have the History of the Fairport Convention double LP.

Back from a long walk......next up
Diane Schuur - Love Songs
The Orchestra backing up Diane's vocals make for very good listening.
Miles - Someday.. Sony Master Sound CD-rip

Also spurred on by Simons returning from France thread & discussed over on that thread, I replaced my damaged CD rip of 'North Star, Grassman and Raven' with the 2005 Island Records remastered release. The remaster SQ is a step up from the original, so I bought a remastered copy of 'Sandy' released at the same time. I have most of her stuff from Fairport, Fotheringay, Strawbs plus the two solo album's above & 'Like an Old Fashioned Waltz'.
