This vinyl beauty arrived this morning 🇫🇷. 30 years late. After they broke up back when I somehow found myself in Dr. Robert’s Record Emporium. Whilst browsing the racks I found this record. Thought it was just another ‘best of’ with a smattering of stuff I already had. I passed. What a bummer! It’s a beauty!
In the last few days I have disassembled my HiFi rig and moved it into another room. Getting the sound back to what one is happy with after such a move can be challenging to say the least. This album is one of my test albums when checking for sound quality. I like to hear the bite in the guitar particularly in the opening two tracks on this album.
Anyway, this one is dedicated to our old friend Ivor who, I know, is a big fan of this band!!!

I do love the old blues songs from the Sheffield delta.. I don't actually have a copy of this fine digital recording but if I did I'd be a better dart player 😉

I use that record too (among many others) as a reference when testing some change or a new toy. Maybe it would be interesting opening a new thread asking the forumers their favourite records used for this practice.
