i’ll join you Steve, just ordered my copy.
Looking forward to it @dav301, going to give the (included) download a listen later on today.
Bruce is well worth exploring. He has changed of course over the years but all are worth a listen and many are essential. Enjoy
Thanks James. My musical taste has evolved over the years and I know enjoy listening to stuff I never used to even consider!!
The ever-lovely Emily!
Ordered as well… can’t wait
Japanese CD, picked up for just £6 in the sale rack at Ray’s Jazz Shop on the second floor of Foyles on the Charing Cross Road:
I would highly recommend Dancing in the Dragon’s Jaws.
Thanks for that will check it out!
Arrived at my workplace last Friday, was waiting for me this morning…
This just arrived and getting its first play. A unique voice not quite country, not quite folk, not quite pop. Quality of the recording is top drawer!
Kate Bush, Director’s Cut ‘Collector’s Edition’.
Includes three CDs: “Directors Cut”, “The Sensual World” and a remastered version of “The Red Shoes”.

Having said I find CDs hard to physically engage with… if only they were all presented like this!

1987 copy of Bad…it sounds very very good…unlike subsequent releases…
Ese & the Vooduu People - Up in Smoke
and pre-ordered Mercury in Retrograde.
At just a fiver for four discs, and enough stuff on it that you’d actually want to listen to, this set from Rhino/Union Square seemed like it’d be worth a punt for casual listening:
