Hi Graham,

Yes, it does exactly that. Very handy, too, as I’ve a stack of 12” singles and a few LPs that spin at 45rpm.

Brandee Younger – Somewhere Different, on CD from 2021

Brandee is a jazz harpist who composes her own music, and has been part of the PMJ crew on YT. This is her major label debut (with a roster of strong support) and if you’re expecting plinky-plonk and wondrous scaling, this isn’t it. It’s quite full-on modern jazz and very entertaining and worth a listen IMV – especially as the tracks on the CD differ in style, so it’s a case of keep listening :grin:

The George Duke sessions from recent Waka/Wazoo box set are brilliant. A very separate and distinct style to Zappa’s music of the time or since, really.

Long gave up trying to get a decent copy of the vinyl set (Warped Curtis) but been dipping into the excellent CD set since Mrs Dread stuffed it down my Xmas stockings…

This was released in December so may have passed many people by which would be a shame - ‘To the moon and back … A tribute to Ryuichi Sakamoto’. 13 tracks ‘remodelled’ by 13 different artists including David Sylvian, Cornelius, Thundercat, Cinematic Orchestra, Otomo Yoshihide. Lovely record and fabulous SQ
