Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… spent some time with friends, my wife sitting with the wife while the husband and I went out and picked up some home medical equipment to aide in the recovery of his wife after having major back surgery. Now sitting down to listen to this release (2000) from k. d. lang and she is sounding sublime! Life is sweet and the music is sweet…
Agreed!
Varèse was/is great.
I wondered if that album was influenced by ol’ Edgard at all…
Is that Mickie Most in the car with Suzie?

Nick Cave & Warren Ellis - WIND RIVER (soundtrack)
Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/16)… this was mentioned the other day when I played the ‘Carnage’ album. I remember watching the movie a few years back and do not remember much about the soundtrack but did enjoy the movie. So taking this out this evening for a spin and the opening track is sounding mighty fine! …looking forward to the rest of the album.

Bobbie Gentry, patchwork. Work week is done or at least Friday work is done. There’s work for the weekend but it is time to relax. This one is splendid!
Such a good album. Must play it again soon.
