Notes
"Peter Green came back from personal and career oblivion several years back, and Anthology is a near-definitive overview of his career. This 4-CD set traces the path from John Mayall in the 1960s, via Fleetwood Mac (all the key tracks included), and sessions with the late Peter Bardens (with whom he played in his first pro band in 1966). Understandably the earlier work overshadows the rest, but to restore balance 1 and a half CDs feature his solo work in the eighties before his "retirement" and with the Splinter Group in the 1990s." - Discogs Note

Blade Runner is such a good album it stands the test of time, 35 years now so it passes that litmus test!
1982 - Vinyl - U.K. First pressing...
On Vinyl. Not in optimal shape but I enjoyed it a lot.
Jean Philippe Rameau - Castor et Pollux
This is a French opera from 1754, lots of short arias, recit, ballets, choral episodes but quite delightful (if probably not the place to start with Rameau). Sparkling (24/48) recording from Harmonia Mundi with Raphael Pichon's Pygmalion orchestra and chorus. Good soloists too.
On CD:-
Bonnie Raitt - Give It Up
Riverside, Shrine Of New Generation Slaves, WAV CD Rip.
Just had to put this on, Needed my Riverside fix!
Luther Vandross - Give Me A Reason. Vinyl
A + | WAV
(1969)
This 2013 remaster and reissue (thankfully!) restores the original running order and adds a few bonus tracks, much better and well worth seeking out.
Vinyl. First spin.
It went off but what is it??
This is the UK mono version, on vinyl, from last year's splendid mono box set.

Compromised by the record company demands of a more pop "sound", it can get a little tiring at times but Alison's voice just about makes up for it.
I'm a big Goldfrapp fan but i just can't love this album like the others
James - how could you not love a Goldfrapp album?
UK first press mono vinyl:
Still a fairly new album to me but I seem to be playing a lot. Always a good sign
This is a very fine new album from Colin Vallon's trio.
UK first press!
What an album this was, Urgent, Juke Box Hero and Waiting for a girl like you all on one album. Flac via Audirvana/Hugo
Donald Fagen - The Nightfly. Vinyl.
This is probably the album I play the most.
