I have not played this album for a long time, years, in fact. Some records are worse than you remember, and some are better. This does fall into the latter category. It is much more enjoyable to listen to than I thought, and it is a very well-produced record. There is lots to like.

Terell Stafford - Brotherlee Love (Celebrating Lee Morgan)

It must be owing to the limited edition (mine is 375/500), but these pressings are astonishingly good. Nice shiny vinyl, dead flat and packed in anti static inner sleeves too. If only all records could be as good as these!

Oh, the music and playing are rather fine too.

Long after his death an album titled Rest in Blue was released. It was Gerry Rafferty’s final recordings finished by friends and family. A lovely recording and well worth a listen.

Ash Ra Temple - Schwingungen (1972). Listening to the 50th anniversary edition via Apple Music 'cos it’s not on Qobuz. The band’s second album, following the departure of Klaus Schulze. Manuel Gottsching on lead, and very good he is too.

The wonderful trumpet of Yazz Ahmed and her first album: Finding My Way Home. First time it is available on vinyl having signed to a new label. I had the good fortune to hear her live on Monday night in Bristol too.

Just played the new Cure album.
This is the best Cure album for a very very long time. Maybe even back to the Pornography album.
Absolutely fantastic.
