Gaz Coombes - Worldās Strongest Man on pink vinyl (standard black wax version also winging its way). Bought this album fairly recently and Iād just not got round to giving it a spin - wish Iād done so sooner as itās a cracking album.
Well - I for one knew nothing of Elizabeth Cotton, so thanks for sharing.
Unfortunately this particular album doesnāt appear to be available on Tidal in the UK. In fact there are no albums by her on Tidal. There are however a few tracks of her compositions which are absolutely wonderful.
A band from the early 2000s, consisting of some of the best English folk-rock musicians, they toured for a couple of years playing songs by Joni Mitchell and Carole King, faithful and really enjoyable covers.
Thatās a bummer. Spanish Tidal triumphs for once. Iām sure itās swings and roundabouts though as I donāt always see things here that I would have thought to be a given.Itās cheaper here though (slightly!) - only ā¬20 per month!
That is strange. I have just searched for Elizabeth Cotten on Tidal and there is plenty of material there. I wonder if it is the dreaded variability of Tidal catalogue by region that is at play here. But it is us in the UK that usually miss out when this happens.
I have raised a query about this on the Roon forum, but in the meantime I am listening to one of her albums on Tidal via Linn Kazoo. I canāt believe I hadnāt heard of her - she must have been hugely influential.
This is my favourite Rush album, it has a raw edge to it which is un-Rush like. The second track Ceiling Unlimited is stonking and so is Ghost Rider which follows it and Peaceable Kingdom and obviously the title track. The lyrics to Peaceable Kingdom really resonate with me.
Rush themselves werenāt that fond of the mix, personal trauma within the band affected their playing so they remixed it all. For me, my favourite tracks lost their edge and my less favourite tracks were improved upon with the newer remixed release
Streaming on NASā¦ā¦ continuing on with another album from the āWhatās your top reference track - and Why?ā thread and one of the songs mentioned is āAm I Wrong.ā Very familiar with Kebā Moā and enjoy all of his work, and he is sounding mighty sweet!
Dealer just dropped by and took away the NDX and left the NDX 2 so Kebā Moā is the first full album streaming on the new boxā¦
