I'll try to resurrect this thread but as a new stand has been revealed and as my last two music posts have been ignored....Jazz in Paris a series of 50 odd CDs of jazz with the theme recorded in Paris(surprisingly).I bought mine in Paris on recent...
Hey all--Anyone else like Terje Rypdal ? He records on the ECM label and does what I would try to describe as sparse soundscapes puntuated by some great guitar playing. I have "Blue", "The Singles Collection" and "Skywards."Any other fans who can...

Good to see Steely Dan getting the top Grammy (among 3 others) for Album of the Year.Rather ironic that Eminem got berated for many things including lyrics about incest and Steely Dan got an pop song award for "Cousin Dupree".Congratulations also go...

Here's me hoping that Naim would be able to re-release great music on CD that has previously been deleted.I'm particularly thinking of T-Bone Burnett's "Proof Throught the Night". Don't know the costs involved though.By the way was Naim ever...

Hi,I've been searching for 15 years now for a live recording of Sviatoslav Richter, recorded at his Carnegie Hall debut in 1960. Two records were issued at the time, one with several romantic composers, the other one with the Beethoven Appassionata -...
All--Given the interest in both Naim hardware and software, I thought it might be fun to offer the Naim label some suggestions as to what performers to go after.My first suggestion would be Bob Mould--his music is brilliant but none of his recordings...
Im going to suggest www.proper-records.co.uk again especially for anyone interested in 30,40,50s jazz. This label produces fantastic value box sets, 4 CDs for £14.99! Some of the titles are Coleman Hawkins, Lionel Hampton, Early Miles Davis,...
HelpI'm not a big classical fan but a good friend of mine is. Its his big 4oth soon and need some hints for a gift. Had a browse through some of his stuff and it seems something like Moussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakoff, Orff, Borodin is what i'm after. Any...

The new album by the above artist, 'Heatbreaker', is an absolute cracker. I suggest you all go and buy it.
I attempted to buy 'Fred Simon' - Dreamhouse CD today! The e-store is an absolute nightmare!! I hate to say but, Linns site is so much easier to use even if there is nothing worth buying. Where else can I locate this CD?
We have just been notified in recognition of our equipment being used during the recording of "Drawn from Memory" the band have very kindly given us a gold disc.
