Can’t believe this is now over 40 years old - where does the time go? Anyway, I love this wonderfully inventive album as much now as when I first heard it all those years ago.

This is the first Takacs Quartet recording of the complete Bartok quartets with the original members of the group. Highly recommended! Listening to the 4th…

Ulrich Schnauss | A Strangely Isolated Place | 2003
He’s now with Tangerine Dream but up until that time a few years ago he was a fine exponent of electronic ambient music that has been described as ethereal.

Now playing…

Gary Burton (Vibes) and Chick Corea (Piano).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… opening up this Wednesday morning with this delightful duet and they are sounding mighty sweet! Some wonderful music to open up and ease into the day…

Nice music on an overcast day. Have not listened to this album in a while.

Something of a classic, which for some reason I never got around to buying. And now I have it; a birthday present from Mrs HH.

6pm News on R4, where my NAT05 is telling me newsreader Chris Aldridge needs a cup of honey and lemon imo. And a couple of days off.

A firm favourite of mine, Kauan, Kaiho. Brilliantly produced atmospheric album from this Russian group, if you like Sigur Ros you’ll like this. Qobuz 44/24

I hate to nit pick @Hollow because this is a metal band that I like a lot, particularly since their Sorni Nai album. These boys are Russian, the two founders Anton Belov and Alexander Borovykh were born and lived about 2,000 Kms East of Moscow.

Little Steven and the Deciples of Soul - Macca to Mecca!

Reminds me of the tribute bands that toured the working men’s clubs in the seventies and eighties - “the Turn” as they where affectionately termed.
This is a pretty poor attempt at some good Beatles songs IMO.
