A forum member ordered this earlier (on CD) which reminded me I haven’t heard it (on vinyl) in a while…
Band of horses, infinite arms. What other countries have public holiday for football game and horse racing I wonder.
It’s Melbourne Cup day today.
John Mayer - Heavier Things, haven’t really appreciated this album previously, but enjoying it this evening.
Peter Gabriel - So. I was scanning my LPs wondering what to play and this classic 80s record caught my eye.
Now Playing…
Anouar Brahem - Blue Maqams
Anouar Brahem (Oud), Dave Holland (Double Bass), Jack DeJohnette (Drums) and Django Bates (Piano).
Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… continuing on this Monday afternoon with Anouar Brahem and his talented quartet and they are sounding sublime! …one very sweet album.
Not the best recording, but what a pair. Yes, a touch croaky and occasionally off-key - but aren’t we all? Love it.

Didn’t know about this release,have all the rest,looks like another purchase.
The blurb
Recorded completely live with no overdubs, studio wizardry, or second chances, The DIG 3 carry on like a delta juke band on a Saturday night. Downhome & funky with great vocals & harmonica & gut bucket guitar.
Ed Wynne : Shimmer Into Nature. 2018, vinyl
Not surprisingly a very Ozric Tentacles feel to this one but a very nice pressing indeed from KScope
Good grief!
Not my usual cup of tea, but what a recording.
Atmosphere, room, space, realism…
With beautiful voices and playing.
And a bit Christmasy…

And for the geeks amongst us, the sleeve notes describe the technology used to capture music in large spaces. Fascinating.
