Shelby Lynne - Just A Little Lovin’

Shelby Lynne (Guitar, Vocals), Kevin Axt (Electric Bass, Upright Bass), Curt Bisquera (Drums), Gregg Field (Drums), Rob Mathes (Keyboards) and Dean Parks (Guitar).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… a mention from @Debs above regarding the talented and beautiful Shelby Lynne’s birthday had me reach for one of her albums to take out for a spin. …and she is sounding absolutely fabulous! One very sweet album…

John Coltrane - A Love Supreme: Live in Seattle

I’ve just listened to Acknowledgement, being the first movement, in high resolution on Qobuz. I was only able to listen at low volume, but I wasn’t too impressed with the sound. I will try again at more realistic levels, but currently I’m not minded to buy it, even if it is the mighty Trane.

Caravan - It’s None Of Your Business

Indulging my secret inner progger. I’ve always enjoyed Caravan, and this splendid new album is much better than I expected. Nice work by a bunch of blokes who are in the same age bracket as most forum regulars :wink:

Is it better than Paradise Filter, their last effort before this new album? I wasn’t too impressed with PF, so am hopeful for some good reports on the new album.

Edit: I see it’s on Qobuz, so I’ll have a listen tomorrow. Thanks.

Rita Coolidge, anytime… anywhere. Was going to play something loud to celebrate out of lockdown but couldn’t help playing this. :relaxed:
