Paul McCartney and Wings - Rockshow, a much punchier mix employed here than on the various performances chosen for the Wings Over America album.
Haven’t played this for a while…
Peter Gabriel Big Blue Ball, on 45rpm blue vinyl…
Kate’s 3rd studio album, it was her first number 1 album and was also the first album by a British female solo artist to top the UK album chart, as well as being the first album by any female solo artist to enter the chart at number 1. It has since been certified Gold by the BPI.
Recorded September 1979 – May 1980 at Abbey Road Studios, and AIR Studios, London
Album released on 7th September 1980
Lump - Animal
John Martyn - The Church with one Bell
Vinyl.
2018 version. Her most out there record, but up there with her very best work as far as I’m concerned.
On Vinyl:
David Ray - Skellig
Oliver Nelson - The Blues and The Abstract Truth.
Listening to this I’m wondering if it’s possible to produce such a great sounding LP at the £36 price point why on earth am I allowing myself to get suckered into paying silly money for MFSL Onesteps & AP UHQR!!
Anyhow I digress.
Also listening to
The Beck Studio Acetate 1969 release from Seelie Court label
On Vinyl of course.
Ryley Walker - Course In Fable
One of my favourites from this year.

Here’s an interesting one - his first album was a thrash-up Wild Willy Barrett affair.
Then he sits down at the piano and turns out a… as Bandcamp say “With hints of jazz, blues, country, gospel and soul in the collective veins of Randy Newman, Warren Zevon, Bill Withers, Billy Joel, Kate Bush, Steely Dan, The Doobie Brothers, Nina Simone, Elton John, The Band, Lennon & McCartney, Leon Russell etc” -
Ummmm that’s some list but anyone who looks like that on the cover and can turn Status Quo’s Caroline into a beautiful piano ballad - just got my £7 + tax.
