That has to be the best recording of Beethoven’s violin concerto that I’ve ever heard. Great stuff.

OMG….I just love this album. Don’t want to play it it too often for fear of getting bored with it….limited to no more than once a week.

Shania Twain - Come On Over
I was working in Nashville when this was released. It was everywhere on the radio waves, almost inescapable. I got hooked. And to quote Larry “She’s not so hard on the eyes either!”

Funnily enough, I was just thinking about this as I have a few alternatives in my collection. This is very good, indeed very, very good.
Is it my favourite?
To be honest I have never listened to them back to back. Maybe I should do this as a fun exercise

Lunchtime cab session with Andrew Hill - Passing Ships (Blue Note)
A few names in this line up I’m not familar with but great to see/hear Jamaican Trumpet player and alumni of Alpha Boys School (@dave-marshall) Dizzy Reece appearing. His Blue Note albums Blues In Trinity and Star Bright are well worth checking out…
