Have We Met from 2020 is also very good. I think I discovered Destroyer via Dan Bejar’s links with The New Pornographers.

John Mayall. Diary of a band.
In between the banter there are some brilliant songs on this live album from 1967, introducing my favourite guitarist Michael Taylor. Fantastic Bluesbreakers line up including imo their best drummer Keef Hartley. Now what to play next :face_with_monocle: Over to you @anon10403888

NB: They do a very funny and disastrous attempt at the National anthem.

I Was Not Sleeping - Danalogue & Alabaster Deplume.

The best electronic/synth album I’ve heard in recent years.

I especially like House with No Door, which is such a wonderfully melancholy meditation on the subject of loneliness.

Enough fun now for some serious ECM semi-ambience with scandi master trumpeter Arve Henriksen’s Places of Worship. Got the CD somewhere but that would mean getting up and deserting my wine glass. Atmospheric.

Marc Cohn, the very best of. Feels like a fitting continuation after Loreena McKennitt and the only one of Marc Cohn that’s is long enough (1h 18m). :relaxed:

Pink Floyd. Audio or video this is an incredible performance. Either way it needs high volume.

By coincidence, I’ve just discovered that Destroyer have a new album scheduled for release on 25th March titled Labyrinthitis.
