Nice to see someone else enjoying cassettes.
Space For The Papa…oh yeah!
What a track…
See if you can track down an LP of Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli playing this - which is utterly spellbinding!
ABM didn’t make many records, but he recorded a handful for DGG, all of which are wonderful. He and his onetime pupil Maurizio Pollini were among the great pianists of the last century.
Also been in a reminiscent mood John. Saw this band many times at my local venue back in the eighties. Jon Strong Band - Follow Me. Jon was/is? a great player, and the band were really tight. Always reminded me a little of Kevin Coyne.
Everything But The Girl Temperamental / 1999 Virgin / EU Promo CD / CDVDJ2892
An early morning challenge for my new NAC 332, using Grado SR125E headphones - sounding very enjoyable, resolving the dynamic production!
It’s now on my list to listen to, thanks.
Bob Dylan. John Wesley Harding.
Released at probably the best period of my life.
Cd rip from the mono box set although I actually prefer stereo version which I’ve not ripped yet.
Gary Boyle! Not to forget Games and Triple Echo. Also to a lesser extent Step Out and Friday Night Again.
Bob Dylan. Nashville skyline.
The last 2 tracks of John Wesley Harding featured pedal steel, giving an indication of this wonderful album.
Not ripped yet so fired up the cd player. A favourite but far too short.
Funnily enough I’m listening to Friday Night Again right now! As I wanted all of Gary’s albums I had to buy it on vinyl and convert it to digital. Still sounds good if I ignore the noises!
