after a suggestion,i have split up the old topic into this one and what was your last vinyl purchase.I hope it makes life easier.
so to get things off and running
queen--the highlander sound track

Propaganda - Wishful Thinking
Gong - From Here to Eternitea

Mike

LOL. You could do purchases of the month for each, er, month.
Anyway,
Diana Krall - a night in paris
Joss Stone - soul sessions (Is it right that according to the sleeve notes some of these tracks were recorded in a day?)

James Lavelle, Romania 026.

Its good.

Syntax - Meccano Mind.

It's excellent, if you like the poppier end of the Underworld/Fluke crossover. Vocals are a bit like Rob Dougan, which is a shame.

Sixtoo - Antagonist Survival Kit (and the instrumental one as well).

Outstanding, absolutely outstanding.

1972..Josh Rouse
Universal Hall..Waterboys
Transfiguration of Vincent..M Ward

3 outta 3 all good

Tomasz Stanko Quintet, Suspended Night. Lovely chamber jazz. A lot of the reviews have it pegged as similar to Kind of Blue, but it's more comtemorary than that. Some of it feels like a close relative to EST and the trumpet has a Kenny wheeler like tone - must be the ECM studio effect.

Hi garyi,
re your comment - could you elaborate - i usually buy the GU sets blind, but am happy to take advice...
ta!

andy c!

GU026 is really good, but not worth having if you have already got WWIII, IMHO.

The first GU CD is very similar to the first CD on WWIII, with about half the tracks being the same (and in the same order). The second CD is slightly darker and harder, and is most like that 3am>5am slot in a decent club. If you know what I mean. Not quite head down mindless boogie, but getting there.

If you don't have WWIII, then it's well worth having. If you do, then be warned about the first CD.

Bought 2 DG SACDs yesterday:

Helene Grimaud - Credo (Excellent and different,variety of music including the Arvo Part debut)

Mischa Maisky/Zubin Mehta, Berlin Philharmonic DVORÁK Cello Concerto, Strauss, Don Quixote. )(Live recording, did not sound special on first listen)

ag,
ta for taking the time to reply..
The GU25 set (deep dish) was brilliant - how would you compare the James lavelle set to this (I know you have the gu25 set)?

questions questions??

Andy

GU026 is very different - GU025 is where prog house has, erm, progressed to and I thought whilst it was good it was a little tired. GU026 is good, but could probably have existed a year ago in terms of it's style - it's also darker and dirtier than GU025.

I very much doubt that either will be played as much as Deep Dish - Moscow (GU021 I think).

This is amazing on pink vinyl Have you figured out what "Icicle" is about yet?? I love "Yes Anastacia" too...

My last CD was Talkie Walkie by Air, but since it's actually NOT a CD (it won't play in this computer for a start) I'd have to say that Minus' "Haldor Laxness" was the last PROPER CD (rather than Corrupt Data) I bought...
