2017 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.
Last year's thread can be found here;
Well, Unfortunately I'm missing rather a lot. This one next...
Another dad donation.
Paul McCartney
New - CD Rip

Isao Suzuki Quartet+1
On CD. Because of the music itself, the performance and the SQ.
A delight...even Lester singing!

My third play for this album and I'm finally starting to hear some of its beauty. Lovely tone from Pepper with some delightful improvisation and feel.
This will inevitably end up being one of those albums to return to.

Perfect for this bright autumnal day

Clive,
I am not big on horns so this album (which I like a lot) is one of the very few I own. Two other excellent requisitions that I recommend are Zoot Sims and Garry Mulligan:
The Zoot album's XRCD version (which is sold used at a very reasonable price) has a great sound. The Mulligan/Desmond is a unique piano-less ensemble. Have a good Sunday.

Bare Bones - Madeleine Peyroux
After an annoying diversion (weekly food shop) now moved on to...
Third and final dad vinyl donation.
Sounding rather good this afternoon - Gorgeous voice and a fine recording too.
Eva Cassidy - Nightbird

Why can’t all recordings be as good as this typically classy offering from Ry? The Tablette 10’s are relishing every nuance. The back to front and wide spacious sound stage is something of a revelation.
Musically super sophisticated stuff.

Last one on vinyl - 50th Anniversary edition....
Will give both LP's a spin today.
Haven't played this for a long time time still very enjoyable.
I so enjoyed listening to 23 Skidoo's debut album Seven Songs the other day, I've decided to ressurect their debut 12", "Last Words"/"The Gospel Comes To New Guinea" from 1981. On vinyl, natch:

I saw them play at the Brixton Acadamy mid 90's, They were Late, Very Loud, Very Very Angey then Pi$$ed off early, Brilliant.
I've never seen them live, but I did catch Tom Morello at a small venue in Vancouver a few years back. He's quite something.
More 23 Skidoo. Their conroversial 1982 12" EP, Tearing Up The Plans: Tearing Up The Plans Parts 1&2/Just Like Everybody/Gregouka
