    I watched this mess of a film the other night. So much potential in the jaw-dropping cast, but with a bland story that doesnt really go anywhere with some strange sci-fi elements thrown in for seemingly useless reasons.

    Honestly, we chatted for about an hour but it could easily have been double or triple that had time allowed for it. I listened to it earlier and it is a stereo pressing which is really interesting. Sounds pretty great to me as well!

    The reason I've been helping Universal with loaning my original pressings is because their archives flooded several years ago (it was located on at Southbank and the river flooded).

    I had the pleasure of discussing some upcoming reissues over lunch yesterday with the head of Universal "Decca British Jazz Explosion". We spent a decent amount of time running through all of the potential reissues, I offered up a few more suggestions, and talked through a rough release...

    New Yazz Ahmed up for pre-order. As an FYI, it seems more affordable directly through the Night Time Stories site. I recently ordered another of her albums from them and it arrived very quickly. https://yazz-ahmed.lnk.to/aparadise

    Definitive Audiophile pressings

    I have the Nick Drake – Pink Moon box set from 2012 and that sounds pretty great, but it's shot up in price. I wonder if the same pressing was released separately?

    Book 30: The Jazz Scene by Francis Newton (Penguin, 1961) This is a book that I've been meaning to read for a while and it often gets references as being an important book. I kind of get it, there's plenty of interesting aspects to it, especially for the time period. Its also quite dated at...

    Oh fantastic, I read Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil recently and really enjoyed it, way more than I expected to. I agree with you, the elements focusing on Savannah were just as interesting, if not more, than the plot and crime itself!

    Congrats! I've mentioned this a few times, but a few years ago I won a copy on ebay for £60 but Yodel lost it. Furious.
