Paco De Lucia & Ramon De Algeciras - Dos guitarras flamencas en America Latina (Phillip’s LP)

Two flamenco guitars in Latin America

Bought in a little record shop somewhere in Spain many moons ago.
“Is this good?” I asked “Si!” Was the reply so I bought it along with a couple of others.
Superb sound and pressing

Nina Simone - Little Girl Blue (BMG/Bethlehem)

Nina’s sublime debut album.

Posting this again as the last time I said it wasnt a great pressing. A second pass through the RCM and it’s now sounding fine.

Not sure if the blurry sleeve image was how it was on the original?

You certainly did mention LLS and I’ve recently managed to acquire the Alligator Bogaloo on cd via Discogs, at a price. My quest to avoid RVG remasters continues, even though he was the original engineer. I’ll certainly check out the LLS in this post, so thanks for the heads up.

LP - MOV reissue : )

Lovers Rock is the fifth studio album by Sade, released on 13 November 2000 by Epic Records. The album was titled after a style of reggae music known as lovers rock, noted for its romantic sound and content, which front-woman Sade Adu listened to in her youth. Lovers Rock was seen as a departure from the band’s previous use of jazz elements, opting instead for a wider use of musical elements from soul music, R&B, soft rock, folk music, dub, reggae, neo soul and lovers rock. The album’s production has been characterised as spare, with simple arrangements and reggae flourishes. A concept album, the lyrics focus on both the positive and the negative sides of love; the album’s lyrical content also touches upon political themes.
