I get your point, I sure hope she wanted to do it, but based on all the horror stories we hear about women in the show business we can’t be sure.

Citizen Steely Dan 1972 - 1980
It’s been a couple of years since I’ve delved into the Dan’s long box, so I’ve set it off from track one (ripped CD1 of 4) and let it run… sixty six tracks of pure bliss coming up.

Eagles - Live At The Beacon Theater 1974 - WAV CD rip
From an excellent radio recordings boxset, classy performances of some of their best songs, Linda Ronstadt and Jackson Browne help out. SQ pretty good for what it is, and the music shines through.

Neil Finn & Liam Finn - Lightsleeper. A dreamy pop album from the Finns, with lots of family contributions and Mick Fleetwood guests on drum on some tracks.

So I waited for the vinyl release before listening to this fabulous album. As ever Dylan is full of surprises, just where did this come from? Just a brilliant collection of songs. He sounds in great voice (for Dylan), there’s a nod to his music past on more than one track but he gets away with it. If you like Bob this is the album you’ve been waiting for. Can’t recommend enough. Sorry to over enthuse!
