An interesting album from Colin Bass of Camel, nice bass playing against the piano and synth of Daniel Biro.

I was just reading a bit of news earlier about Shane McGowan. The lad is being allowed home for Christmas, so I just had to play this magnificent album of his.

Phil Collins: Face Value

First play of Mr. Collins solo debut in many years and I’m hard pressed to think of many albums that are able to use a horn section so well. The 96-24 Qobuz 2016 remaster is doing great justice to this work, the drumming in particular, making Face Value a joy to revisit.

For lovers of acoustic texture: cello, violin and grand piano, this album will be a listening experience

Funambulist

Rémi Fay on Qobuz / Apple Music

It’s mellow, well recorded and features no catchy tunes. A listening experience, not ‘musical’ per se.

Funambulist: No. 2 is probably the standout track.

For those with high end kit, I’m sure it will be magnificent - it is impressive enough on my more modest setup.

Enjoy!

Talk about a cross-genre album! No worries, it’s great.

Found this a bit challenging at the time. Sounds pretty tuneful when I play it now. CD rip.
