Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… a mention from @Buster above had me place this in the queue and now taking this September 2008 release out for a spin… it will keep me occupied for the then two hours and thirty minutes… Yahoo… Life is sweet and so is the music!
Classic album for me from James Lavelle and his band. First time listening on my Naim system and it sounds amazing.
UK first press (with free mini-album) from 1985 of this phenomenal – and much-underrated – 4AD album. One of Vaughn Oliver’s best sleeves too.
Listening to this hoary old classic which sounds great via qobuz just now. I could make an argument for Preztel Logic being their best album

It’s been a while since I’ve played some records and now I see that I’ve missed it!
(Sorry for the lousy iphone picture)
Dvorák: Symphonies,Tone Poems, Requiem - London Symphony Orchestra, István Kertész - Symphony No.2
A bit of a Dvorak shootout. I have to say I prefer this recording…. Bags of energy and detail in the recording!
The Police - Every Breath You Take - The Singles – on CD
Retro stuff, and very interesting to read the background to their success e.g. that (the wonderful IMHO) Roxanne was initially a flop. Sounds much better on a hi-fi system than on the ‘tinny’ Sony Walkman I had back then. No ‘Sue Lawley’ on this.
He he he… I know what you mean.
