Picked up recently for a snip. It's excellent stuff, as expected, because it's Bobbie Gentry. 12 tracks from her BBC show recorded in 1968 & 69. All tracks are specially recorded for the show with backing from luminaries such as John Cameron, Herbie Flowers, Danny Thompson and Alan Parker. 5* stuff.

24 years since Kirsty's death. Someone else posted Kite, Kirtsy's first great LP, that spurred me to dig out her other near perfect LP.

Outside of the dancefloor environment the Orb used the 12" single format used to it's very best affect. The Blue Room is up next.

Yazoo are one of those record labels that you can pick up one of their issues "on spec". Almost every record (or CD) will be a great pressing, with excellent sound and a superb collection of music. This one is no exception.

Sue Instrumentals: 1959 - 1967 "The Beat Is On" Cracking stuff, Hammond Organ, stinging guitar, bluesy, souly, funky. "All about my girl" by Jimmy McGriff, is impossible to sit still to. You don't need to sing along to everything.

You don't have any Hawaiian guitar in your record collection? Why ever not?

Very excited, today. I popped into my local record shop, Square Records www.booksandvinyl.co.uk . Stone me I didn't know this was available. The first time on vinyl since ir was issued almost 40 years ago, unless I'm very much mistaken. I'm alone in the house and loving it.

Half-way through side one, it's brilliant! This is an excellent re-issue, it's rather limited so go and grab it. I've got a handful of Lilac Time CDs, including a Fontana era compilation, which I've always enjoyed. Time to head into the garage and dig 'em out. @petepaphides.bsky.social

One of the very many fine albums by Ry Cooder.

That's it, I've had enough of Twitter. Too many racists, too many wankers, too much ignorant bollocks. With a Trump presidency looming, I'm out. Elon can go fuck himself

It's time for some Motown, or as we call in over in UK Tamla Motown. Actually this LP is from 1964, before EMI launched the Tamla Motown label. Lots of great early sounds from before the HDH songs began to epitomise what most people thought was Motown.

I'm waiting for a sensible answer, I'm not holding my breath. Apprently my hobbies of listening to music, cooking, going for a walk and photography means I support pushing increased congestion upon others. Very interesting

I've been waiting for this to be reissued on vinyl for absolutely ages, it's so good. To have this and HMS Fable reissued and on my turntable within 5 weeks is just making me very happy. Hopefully this means that "Sunday at Devil Dirt" and "Hawk" will be following soon...🤞

Warning, I'm going to mix my metophors... Punk was a flower that withered and died so swiftly, but it opened doors for so many great bands with great ideas. From back in the day before they went all soft and twee. After 3 LPs John Foxx upped sticks for a more cerebral solo career. Oh Viennetta....

Currntly going through a Donovan phase... Dylan wannabee or under-rated folk pop genius? Catch the wind, Colours, Turquoise, Ramblin' Boy, Sunshine Superman, Sunny Goodge Street, Barabajagal, there's no shortage of great tunes.

In glorious mono, original mix, turned up loud, just as God intended.

Damn! This is one fine album, this particular edition sounds absolutely superb. She has a few great albums, had great taste and did some super cover versions. "A Girl Called Dusty" is on next.
