So anybody out there stuck their ears around the latest remix/remaster of the classic 'Argus', which I loved when I was a teeny. Are there any other Wishbone Ashe recordings worth checking out ?Peter

Verdicts on the Beta Band's "Hot Shots II" seem to be pretty mixed, judging by previous threads.Question is, has anyone bothered with the vinyl version and is it any better than the CD in terms of sound quality? It's a bit on the "anorak" side of...

(I'm a little tired as I write this, so please forgive any errors.)I just scored another great purchase from my increasingly favorite CD source, Berkshire Record Outlet. Among other discs, I picked up a seven disc set of Walter Gieseking playing 27 of...

My wife is such a thoughtful girl! She knows how much I enjoy music, and would like to buy an occasional CD for me. However, she knows that I'm a picky sod, and most of the things she's given to me in the past have been politely accepted, and then not...

Nick,Thanks for your recommendation of "Sounds from the Ground". I've heard clips on websites of two of their albums; "Kin" and "Terra Ferma" and bought them both.This is the closest music have heard to my beloved Leggo Beast (also trippy dub). If you...

I'm a DS fan, but I'm frustrated by the generally poor quality of her recordings (or the mastering). There are exceptions: I think the sound quality of the 45 rpm, 12" disc of "The Look of Love" sounds absolutely superb. Next in line is a 1980s...

I can’t remember any previous recommendations for her on the forum. If you like Patty Larkin or Shawn Colvin,(or even Sheryl Crow) then it may be worth having a listen to this singer-songwriter. I first heard her on Radio 4 & I’ve just got ‘Truth From Lies’ and ‘My Shirt Looks Good on You’. Both excellent (so far, I think that I prefer the former). I also bought a couple of Ani Difranco albums (‘Imperfectly’, and ‘Out of Range’)...
