Loving on CD 
Eric Clapton - The Blues Years

Cello and violin to clear the cobwebs away. Patricia Kopatchinskaja is the most exciting violinist I’ve heard and I discipline myself to listen to the entire CD rather than skip the more astringent bits. Sol Gabetta is the cellist. One to listen hard to.

I used to like a bit of Camel, even if my friends did take the piss about imaginary swooping snow geese…
Anyway, I got a new toy yesterday - an Innuos Zen Mini (quite common here it seems) so I can re-rip my CDs as flac rather than the 128k mp3s I did 15 years ago.
So I’m rediscovering some music as I rip them and the Snow Goose turns up. Great! Let’s have a listen; sounds like absolute dogshit! My hifi has improved massively over the years, and it highlights a rubbish recording in this case.
Luckily I found a 2023 remaster on Tidal and the difference is night and day!

Gounod’s Faust and Bizet’s Carmen Suite. A new purchase for me on vinyl - originally released in 1960, this is the Analogue Productions reissue from a few years ago. Wonderful music and this pressing is excellent.

The Alan Parsons Project - Turn of a Friendly Card
My dad’s old copy, which I inherited almost 30 odd years ago, as he passed when I was a young lad. I think we may have had a lot of overlap in music and it certainly set the foundations of why it’s the out-of-control hobby it is today.
