From 1974, an unusual record in Evans’ catalogue, but a good one. Re-released on the revived MPS label. Lovely SQ on this CD.

The Doors - LA Woman. From the 45RPM Analogue Productions box set from 2008. The best sounding version I’ve ever heard!

One of these days, I’m going to have to have a shootout between the AP and DCC Doors releases… they’re both good but I’ve never compared head to head.
It’s a Fair Cop on R4.

Superb Pure Pleasure re issue from the recently discovered (prompted by Kevster) Nimbus West label.
Just what the Doctor ordered after a cab full of rowdy dustbin lids!

Francis Dunnery - Hometown
I missed this concert, but was at Whitehaven for the subsequent tour which promoted this album. With Matt Pegg on bass, it’s a great fun live set.

Listening to ‘For Django’ by Joe Pass, while sorting out the online ticketing for our upcoming shows. It’s a very fine album.

It’s lovely but at 7.5% you don’t want too much of a good thing! We have Langham beer at our shows.

King Crimson – Music Is Our Friend
Another superb live release – it may be classed as an official bootleg, but the sound quality is top drawer and really leaps out of the speakers, and the musicians’ performances themselves are up there with their absolute best – it’s very apparent that the enforced lengthy lay off has reinvigorated, reenergised and rejuvenated every aspect of the whole band.
