Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Live From KCRW

Having just played Push the Sky Away, I had to play this live album. The instrumentation is pared down relative to the aforementioned album and it’s obviously before a small audience, giving it a more intimate feel. Plus it opens with the mighty Higgs Boson Blues. Love it.

Thought I’d pickup a new artist following a post from @Pete_the_painter.
Never listened to this lady before, but I am enjoying this. Seems to match my mood today…:face_with_diagonal_mouth:

Superb album.
Saw her on that tour.
She is amazing live. I hope she is up to touring again soon. They have rescheduled her US tour for April. Fingers crossed, she manages to get her demons back in the box soon🤞🏼

Headley Bennett - 35 Years From Alpha (On-U Sound)

Alpha is a reference to the Alpha Boys School (now Insititute) where “wayward” youth, orphaned, delinquent, destitute etc children were taken in by Catholic Nuns and schooled in music and strict discipline, particularly Jazz and Big Band. Sister Ignatious must have been the hippest nun on the planet even operating her own Sound System. Many of Jamaica’s greatest musicians and recording artists were alumni of Alpha including “Deadly” Headley Bennett.

You might like Sari Schorr, similar to Beth and is the vocalist on the new Robin Trower album. Her own albums are great and on Qobuz.

Thanks Stevie, I’m not really interested in the gadget, I was just curious when I saw Graham’s picture, accuse me of narrow mindedness but my reasoning/thinking as I’ve already put forward (see my conversation with Graeme) suggests to me that this is one of those audiophile placebo’s.
According to Toon it doesnt even “work” on every record which makes me chuckle.

Simon and Garfunkel - The Concert in Central Park

Recorded 19 September 1981. I was minded to play this following a mention on another forum. I recall seeing the film of this concert broadcast in TV, when I was impressed by the fluidity and apparent ease of Paul’s playing.
