What are you listening to in 2020 and WHY might anyone be interested?

Good to see a bookshelf speaker resting on some books! Great album too.

This album has definitely passed the test of time. Still sounding fresh and truly excellent. And (unfortunately) still lyrically relevant.

Yes this is good. Have you tried the Ketil Bjornstad albums with David Darling on cello, The River and Epigraphs. They are very good, particularly The River.

Now playing…

The Beatles Let It Be Naked, still not sure how I feel about it. Hopefully there’s a remix in the future.

Still my favourite album of hers. Easily in my Top 50 albums.

Happy 4th of July to those American members.
