Oo la la! It's Goldfrapp's third album! On vinyl!
Gene Harris was a jazz pianist with a very distinctive funky / rhythm and blues kind of style. This CD is one of my favorites of his.

Whether the live or studio album this is always good to kick back to.

Out of curiosity James are you pleased with the upgrade to your newly returned item?...
Gregory Porter - Take me to the alley. CD rip.
Another recent acquisition after many Tidal plays. I normally play this on the Muso at dinner or when cooking but it's sounding fabulous on the main system. 
The fist toe dipping into the great Maria Callas box set just downloaded from QOBUZ (a ridiculous price of £7.34!). My first performance is the 1957 Galliera - Il Barbers di Siviglia. Really enjoying this. Qobuz 24/96
