Apparently it’s 21 years (unbelievable) since Batley’s finest passed away. Playing what for me is his greatest album. His collaborations with Feat were very special. Trying the Qobuz HiRes but vinyl’s really the way for this one.
Add: switched to my CD rip. It carries more ‘feel’ than the HiRes. Uniti Core.
Well, I would add
Blonde on Blonde by Dylan
Exile on main st , Stones
Made in Japan, Purple
Down where the spirit meets the bone, Lucinda Williams
Brilliant album, as is the follow up It’s About Time. Terry Riley and TONTO, just breathtaking.
I’ll take either over later TD or any JMJ any day.
LP - Blue Note 75th Anniversary 2014 reissue : )

Just ordered a Tone Poet version of this fabulous album, and when it arrives i’m sure this BN75 version will get totally eclipsed
