I’d had enough of Zappa, so thought I’d follow @Alley_Cat, with Rattle’s version with the CBSO. I do have Kubelik with the BRSO, which I prefer, but it’s on vinyl and I’m too tired for dedicated listening. Besides, the clicks and pops would irritate.
@Matthegerman thanks for the heads up, I’ll look into that. I was perhaps a bit sensitive at the time but then again I was brought up on the premise “if you’ve got nothing nice to say then don’t say anything at all”. Personally I wouldn’t dream of commenting in a bad way on someone else’s choice of music here, I prefer to use this thread to pick up on new music that might interest me and that I haven’t heard of before, or albums I haven’t played for ages and it gives me a nudge to listen to again. Served me well for many years and added greatly to my collection and enjoyment.
Having a noisy but fun afternoon. I have listened to the Goat Girl album 3 times all the way through in last 24 hours and am pretty sure it will end up on my Best Of list in 2021

Because I no longer have any of their individual albums so, this has been a good way to revist their 70s prog rock, nicely interspersed with some live tracks this is a decent overview.

Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/16)…… kicking off this Saturday morning with Keb Mo and he is sounding sublime?’ …a perfect way to kick off the day, my wife’s birthday and we have seen him perform on more than a few occasions… its her birthday and she loves his music, and so do I!
