Dire Straits - Alchemy, a live album recorded during the Love Over Gold tour, most of the songs are stretched beyond their studio lengths and some lose focus.

Great classic. Heard this to today on the latest MoFi original masters vinyl released yesterday. It sounded sublime. My copy should arrive in the next couple days.

Black Symphony [2008]

Some great live symphonic Goth metal to help take me to another place. Within Temptation aided and abetted by a forty piece orchestra and twenty piece choir making great music. I haven’t watched the DVD to this event in a few years but will give it another go very soon.

Amos Lee - Live At Red Rocks

A bit of Amos a day keeps the blues away.

Great, I am glad that the MoFi original masters vinyl release are sounding sublime, I don’t have a turntable at the moment as my old Project Debut turntable is broken (lose wire in the tone arm) I am thinking I might buy a new Rega turntable after the new year. If I do Dire Straits will definitely be one of my first buys.

Avishai Cohen - Cross My Palm With Silver

Avishai Cohen (Trumpet), Yonathan Avishai (Piano), Barak Mori (Double Bass) and Nasheet Waits (Drums).

Streaming on NAS… having seen Ziv play with Avishai a few weeks ago I thought it would be nice to give them both a spin. Loved there work together and hope to find or hope they get together and release and album together. A couple of wonderful musicians making some sweet music!

Mary Black - The Collection

Been listening to her this afternoon. Totally enthralled. Also reading Philip Pullman’s Northern Lights. What better way to make the the dark day pass.

Buddy Guy - Damm Right, I’ve Got The Blues

Streaming on NAS… taking out Buddy for a spin for some fine blues on this Saturday afternoon, toes tapping and body swaying with the opening track. Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton and Mark Knopfler along with others also make guest appearances on the album. One sweet album!

On CD. A cracking album rather eclipsed by the releases either side of it. So much invention going on.
