This just arrived with Barry the Postman.
As Halestorm just finished it would be rude not to put it on…:blush:

Beyond Twilight by Alexandra Mackenzie and Ingrid Sawers. Lovely cello and piano music which is very accessible and enjoyable. Qobuz stream.

UFO - Lights Out

Listening to the Andy Pearce 2024 remaster. I have the original album from 1977 on vinyl and CD and must say I’ve never heard it sound so good. Michael Schenker proving what a great guitarist he is.

Seem to have drifted away from my intention to have a folk day. Guru Guru - UFO. Heavy, dissonant, German rock, emerging from/mutating the European free jazz scene. The neighbours hate me.

Well, if it’s a German music trip, it has to go here. A work of genius. Can - Tago Mago.

Marillion - Fear

Original vinyl released in 2016. I personally prefer the Hogarth era and this album contains some great pieces. The New Kings in particular stands out.

Dream Theater - Falling Into Infinity

Originally released in 1997. This is the Music On Vinyl 2013 release. I think it’s fair to say it isn’t in the same league as Metropolis:Scenes From a Memory or Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, however it is often talked about as their best sounding album. Having just listened to Lines in the Sand I might agree. Portnoys drums sound like he is playing in the same room, they sound enormous.

Brilliant live performer. Saw him in London in 1985, think I still have the programme for the gig in the house somewhere.
