As much as I think her latest album is a return to form & her later albums are very sophisticated I still prefer her earlier albums. Vinyl.

It’s a great collection of the Bosses work at the time and some great performances. A lovely box set to own.

Tool | Fear Innoculum | 2019
Joining @QuickSticks after some Tool chat earlier. This was the album that took 13 years to make and release after their previous last one in 2006 while we all wondered if they would ever make another album, 10,000 Days.

Back in 2016 I was in Firebird Records in Dublin and they were playing this brilliant album (Night Fiction) by Cian Nugent - a couple of years later I went to see Steve Gunn at the De La Warr in Bexhill on Sea. His co-guitarist was incredible and then to my surprise he introduces him as Cian Nugent. Luckily got to have a chat with him after the show. Told him back in 2016 I was in……
His new album is wonderful.

I must admit that I still have a bit difficulties to get used to these new mixes. However, I might pick up the vinyls later anyhow but let’s see.

Tracy Chapman, Tracy Chapman, 1988.
I listened to Tracy in the car for a few years driving in Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
In a tape recorded from the CD that still is with me, that I bought in 1992 at Schiphol Airport.
I know she is from Cleveland in the USA, but after all those miles together she is part of my African experience, a very happy part of my life.
So I play her often to enjoy the memories of red roads, green bushes and blue skies.
By the way I am on the road again…
