Magic album!
Randomly picked Gene within this afternoon’s playlist. I’d forgotten how good they are and how much I played them close on 30 years ago (eek!)
Mississippi Fred McDowell - Live At The Gaslight - CD (2000)
Recorded on November 5, 1971, Live at the Gaslight stands as the final recording of Delta blues legend Mississippi Fred McDowell. The bottleneck guitarist was 67 years old when this album was cut, but his voice and playing show no signs of age and his passion and conviction seem to have strengthened with the years. At this point in McDowell’s career he had shifted to playing electric slide guitar.

Now playing…
Foy Vance | Signs of Life - Live From The Highlands
Foy Vance (Guitar, Piano, Ukulele, Vocals) and Seán Óg Graham (Accordion, Guitar).
Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/24)… returning home after coffee with friends and kicking of this morning with a bowl of rasberry yogurt with freshly picked strawberries and banana and taking the ‘Live’ edition of the Signs of Life album with Foy and Sean they are sounding sublime!
John Lennon - Mind Games (The Ultimate Mixes)
The 2010 16 bit remastered CD is very good but this in Hi Res is something else - there is much more meat and clarity in the mix.
It’s £4 if you are a Qobuz sublimey.
Fabulous album Cmax, my favourite of hers although ‘Just Like That’ runs an extremely close 2nd…
