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

As you like Tom Kennedy, may I suggest you this album? He usually has excellent collaborations, his music is fantastic IMO.

John Mayall - Thru the Years

This album includes another fine instrumental piece from Peter Green, Greeny. Before people knew about his out of phase pickups, I can imagine them listening to this piece and thinking “How on Earth…?”

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… returning home after coffee with friends and taking Wayne and his trio out for a spin with his album which was released in October 2018 and this trio is sounding sublime! Life is sweet…

The Beatles - Beatles for Sale

I’m more of a post-Rubber Soul fan really, but then this is just hitting the spot perfectly just now, as do Help, Hard Days Night, With the Beatles and Please Please Me, of course. It’s better to ignore that rubbish about being a post-Rubber Soul fan.

£1.99 from Oxfam…slightly tatty sleeve but ok vinyl. Bought it for the title track, having been to Fairbanks and followed the Alaska pipeline for many miles, and the excellent Uptown Uptempo Women…and quite a star studded band.
