It's not out yet on this side of the pond. Anybody in the UK pick it up yet? Have any opinions? I'll probably pick it up anyway. It's available on vinyl as well. But if it's a digital recording I'm going for the CD..

I don't know what it is but this album seems to get better every time I put it on. With all the garbage that's out there now it's know wonder this one has stood the ravages of time. I don't know if it was Howard's guitar, Keith's tenor or Gus's...

No Naim gear yet but..Currently have Rega P3, 10X gold, Tom Evans phono stage, Alpha 6 and Royd Minstrels. Initially thought that next upgrade would be speakers but local dealer suggested that a better amp would get a lot more out of the Minstrels and...

As my CDS has been back at Naim for a week now receiving a health-check, I've been itching to get some music back in my life. Finally took drastic action today and rigged-up the Sky Digibox in the listening room so I could listen to the radio. The...

This morning, the radio said that George Harrison was flying to his home in Hawaii. Sad to say that things don't look at all well for him (cancer). This is really bad news.George must be the most under-rated Beatle, who released solo works that, to...

(This was going to be a brief CD review, but turned into a bit of an epic)Of all the kinds of music that are written about on this forum it seem that heavy rock (for want of a better desciption) receives very little attention.I think that one of the...

Well, I am actually talking of bad recordings that are supposed to be good as they all have been made in the last 30 years (would be too easy to list Caruso or early Stones records for instance, due to the lack of technical means and experience). Also...

Hello to all. If you recognized that title then you might be able to help me. I believe it's performed by Dave Brubek, please correct me if I'm wrong. I want to own this on CD so can anyone recommend the full album or a compilation. Thanks again for...

I was at the Larmer Tree Music Festival over the weekend; a really friendly, chilled-out festival near Salisbury. Saw some excellent musicians including Eric Bibb and Thea Gilmore, but the stand-out act of the weekend was a guy called Nick Harper. I...

Never thought of it before someone mentioned it in thread "Dusting off old faves". I've got some questions about it:- I have a new PC with top-notch AMD processor, but only a poor analogue modem connection (ADSL and cable will never be available in...

Last night I received my 34-disc set of Domenico Scarlatti’s complete keyboard sonatas played by Scott Ross on the harpsichord on Erato. I managed to sit through about two-and-a-half dozen of the sonatas, enjoying some utterly delightful music....
