Tracks from an unreleased Santana from the 70’s. I was lucky to see him three times once during the tour that gave us Moonflower, a couple of tracks from the gig are on the album and a couple of times during his next tour. Sensational wasn’t the word.

Foster the People – ‘Paradise State of Mind’

It’s exciting to see a band that had success during the original indie boom be able to make a name for themselves in this current resurgence without relying on what originally made them big and also not betraying their original sound. It’s a near-impossible balance to strike, but Foster the People do it wonderfully here. The band is back, and the album is paradise.

Some cracking West Coast jazz from Curtis Amy & Dupree Bolton on Katanga! Pacific/Blue Note Tone Poet vinyl. As the sleeve notes say TP aims for sonic excellence, this delivers in spades.

Great to see prolific Ipswich Town centre forward Ray Crawford on guitar, verily a renaissance man!

One of my favourites from Madonna.

There used to be a ‘gapless’ disco mix type version where each track blended into the next - I think it was on Amazon Music for free years ago, then disappeared and I can’t find a copy to purchase anywhere (at least last time I looked).

An utterly brilliant work out album for the boring gym (cross trainer mostly for me years ago).

Was gapless the original CD ‘mix’? Do I have it?

Seeing some articles saying the non-stop version was treated as a single track for streaming revenue purposes hence why they made it ‘per track’ and split them.

Roger Waters

Us + Them (Live in Amsterdam, June, 2018)

Continuing with more live Roger, another outstanding show.

Watching the Blu-Ray playing through my system.

Wonderful artist.
I bought this album - Ecuador - when on holiday in Palma a number of years back from a trader at a flea Market in the city as I had never seen it before. The album turns out to be unofficial and unreleased but sound is studio quality.

Released last year, this an absolutely fabulous recording of Chopin’s mazurkas. Highly recommended
