Don’t get drawn in @VinoVeritas . I missed Band of gypsys album in 1970 then Tony flagged it up and I ended up buying 50th anniversary vinyl. Then Eoink suggests streaming the box set. Inevitably I have to buy that as well. This thread is wonderful but expensive

Aoife O’Donovan - Bull Frogs Croon (and Other Songs)
Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/24)… next up this morning is this short album from Aoife featuring six tracks and released on March 5, 2020. Information found on band camp: “This is the first release featuring Aoife with a string quartet. Co-produced by Jeremy Kittel and Aoife, the album was recorded in Brooklyn on the last days of October 2019. The title of the project comes from the Peter Sears poem, “Valentine,” which is the final movement of the 3 song suite along with Sears other poems “Night Fishing” and “The Darkness”. Peter Sears (1937-2017), was named the seventh poet laureate of the state of Oregon in 2014. The suite was penned in 2015 by O’Donovan along with Jeremy Kittel and Teddy Abrams, the conductor of the Louisville Symphony Orchestra and premiered at the Britt Festival in Jacksonville, OR."
The mix of music and poetry is always sweet and Aoife vocals and the strings are sounding mighty fine!

My new version of Jennifer Warnes’ Famous Blue Raincoat arrived today. Ripped and playing at the moment, having just listened to the original recording. The difference is quite staggering! Clarity, bass, soundstage - everything is so much…better! Definitely one of the best remastering efforts I’ve ever heard.

That BoG boxset contains some of the finest music Hendrix ever made – the 13min 51sec “Machine Gun” on Side 6 is definitive.

Some Goat before they went totally off the boil with their last studio album. This one is good Swedish psychedelic rock, I hope they get back on track with the next album.
