Tír Na HiFi

It is a beautiful cover as Fergus says. So you like it Fran. I heard it was a very disjointed and quickly cobbled together jam session ie sounds like something just up my street ;-)

I mentioned in Jazz and Electronica some vinyl I picked up during teh week... also on those forays I picked up these CDs

I really like that film.

This arrived this morning from Experimedia Records up in Akron....not sure about the sleeve!

It's grim up North, but it seems particularly grim in Northumbria!

I found that a hugely uplifting album. I love it more and more each listen. Incredible recording too.

You're absolutely spot on Ivor. I listened to it through the Gale 401's which are incredibly revealing in the midrange and loved every minute of it. It would be nice if they
had the occasional cheerful song, though! For me the stand outs are Queen of Hearts and their very brave take on Starless. I love the accent too!

An amazing surprise greeted me at lunchtime. You'd want to see my little wife's priceless expression! Here's the first Lp...
