Good, good. The denial has been replaced by anger. You’ll soon be OK.
and, breathe.
Better now. Some of the more left field stuff is interesting and pretty good.
Cheers Paul.
I’ll give that a spin
I really like this one, featuring Pharoah Sanders.
Warning: also contains flutes.
I’ll also give this a try
Cheers for the heads up Pete. Just booked a couple of tickets for January
Will do Paul but it will be Tuesday before I get a chance to reply as I’m on backshift until then.
Thanks Allan. That’s much appreciated and there’s no rush. Currently immersed in Matthew Halsall.
Paul I haven’t forgot about you - I’ll get back to you tomorrow
Mark @DiveDeepDog brought one of their albums to the Yorkshire weekend which I liked so after a listen to their stuff the on Tidal I got this. Most of their vinyl output seems to be very pricey though
Yep, it’s ridiculously expensive now.
Did you get that the other day for £42? I was too fat fingered with my higher bid
- Nick…
Haha yes that was me. I offered him £50 a few days before the auction ended but he never got back to me so I’m happy All the other copies I have seen have been £100 plus.
Right Paul this will take a while to wade through so bear with me:
