What are you listening to in 2024 and why might anyone be interested?

I love these types of recommendations, i.e. not well known and interesting (to me, at least). Thanks John.

Gary Moore. Vinyl. His playing sounds effortless.

" …released in 1992. The album features guest contributions from B.B. King and Albert Collins. It peaked at number four on the UK Albums Chart, making it Moore’s highest-charting album in the UK." WIKI.

Ditto

Have just started listening to this with quite mixed emotions given recent sad news in the Lounge.

I’d be surprised if anyone could listen to the first track without feeling a sense of sadness in this particular context.

I didn’t see that concert anywhere. :frowning:

I don’t think it was widely advertised. I stumbled upon it reading a music news website the week before tickets went on sale.
