Masaaki Suzuki - Brandenburg Concertos

If you like the Duke, I would suggest this is one for you. Powerful swing in action.

On the Music on Vinyl label - repro is very good.

Liam Gallagher, As You Were. To my surprise, and despite him being a total prat, this is an excellent album and well worth a listen. Flac via Audirana/Hugo

  Fink - Resurgam.

  Up there with his best, but then, has Fink ever released a less than great album?

  Trying to get familiar with the choons, as we're off to see him in Manchester next month.

1973 - vinyl - UK first pressing...

Recorded in Berlin 2015 and produced by Andreas Neubronner. Three major compositions of keyboard variations masterfully played by Levit. Listening to the Beethoven now…stunning!

Bach, Beethoven, Rzewski

   Fink - Sort Of Revolution.

   Well, they do say one good thing leads to another, so ....................... more Fink.

   He's a bit good, innit?  ................... oh, and as a bonus, all of his music is beautifully recorded.

Mozart - Clarinet Quintet & Oboe Quartet - vinyl 

These sound amazingly good. Hard to beat the quality of Deutsche Grammophon. Gradually getting back into music after my robotic prostatectomy surgery 23 days ago. 

Really glad I bought the 4m SL speaker cable as the demo 5m does not sound as good. Probably should have gone for 3.5m which Naim say is the Optimum length and would just have reached. Why pay more for reduced SQ.

Sun Ra - Reflections in Blue. Qobuz 16/44.1. Rec. 1986, rel. 1987. I thought of playing this one when I posted in the Sun Ra thread. A fun one.

Anyone here familiar with the music of Al Petteway?

I’ve just discovered this lovely album via Radio Paradise - and ordered a copy.

I saw these guys a few weeks ago at the Tramshed in Cardiff.

It was a fantastic gig.
