Thought I’d join the Hunky Dory appreciation society this afternoon
Yes The Yes Album / 2003 Atlantic / Germany CD / 8122737882
Prompted by @QuickSticks earlier choice to give this a spin.
Us cool folk listening to the Dead & Miles smoking old growler roll ups used to deride this stuff listened to by floppy haired English students waving their french fags around whilst discussing Structuralism. Then I crashed a party and met one exactly 48 years ago today (as I am reliably informed). CD rip via HiRes player with headphone splitter - aww!
Nice story. Great album. Enjoy.
For those like me who know little about (British) jazz Impressed With Gilles Peterson is an enjoyable introduction. Playing Vol. 2, Vol.1 is even better I think but both are great.
That’s a perfect album. Played regularly, especially in the car. Happy anniversary.
Loving this, Pat. Cheers
Great reissue series whilst it lasted - culminating in two memorable concerts at The Barbican and a BBC documentary series !
On CD:
Very impressed Charles with your Beach Boys / Brian Wilson collection.
Dire Straits - Love Over Gold (1982).
Not exactly background music, this album needs your attention, but the rewards are worth it. Lots of layers to get your head round.
I can empathise with that!
