Maybe, I wouldn't know without looking, but they're all decent to my ears. There was a mad few years where it was cheaper for me to buy anything from VMP than it was from to get the equivalent here in the UK, so much so that I bought a decent pair of bookshelf speakers that they MUST have made a...

I was a VMP member for going on 8 years until they chopped the international subs. Recently I've been digging through all the exclusives I have from them and I find that when they focused on a short run of a "series" they typically sound fantastic. The likes of the: - Impulse Spiritual Jazz...

Vey sad to have heard of the passing of Roy Ayers. A true musical pioneer with an incredible legacy. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/roy-ayers-death-neo-seoul-music-everybody-loves-sunshine-b2709905.html

RIP Roy Ayers. Such an incredible legacy.

Book 4: Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan (Anchor, 2014) A really fun book full of humour. I thoroughly enjoyed this and will definitely be on the lookout for the others in the series. Book 5: Butter by Asako Yuzuki (Fourth Estate, 2025) The "it" book of the moment, it seems. I did enjoy this...

Its a question I've been asked a few times on Instagram too. I sat down with Universal before Christmas and ran through the list of potential albums they might pursue as part of their "Jazz Explosion" series. "Down Another Road" wasn't on there (plus its a Fontana/Philips release so they would...

I listened to the first disc earlier and it sounds superb. I cant get enough of her sound, its so captivating.

The latest from Yazz Ahmed arrived and it looks to be a great package. I opted for the limited coloured pressing (pearl, but basically just white vinyl) with the signed booklet.

Yazz Ahmed - A Paradise In The Hold (Night Time Stories, 2024 Limited First Signed Pressing) Really looking forward to listening to this latest album from Yazz Ahmed which arrived a day early. Her mixing of contemporary jazz with traditional Bahraini influences is so unique and works everytime...

You guys are all nerds... ...and I love it.

Just looked and they are super nice!

We went on a long walk between towns over the weekend but not before stopping into a charity bookshop. I picked up 3 Murakami books that I was missing ("Pinball, 1973", "Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman", and "What I Talk About When I Talk About Running"), a Jack Reacher ("The Secret" by Lee Child...

I really enjoyed this. Was pleasantly surprised.

An insanely great album, one of my all time faves. I remember listening to it the first time and stopping in my tracks, it completely blew me away. I managed to get an original pressing last year which was one of my best finds.

Amazing! Belated happy birthday, hope you had a great day!

Any time!! Well. Summer when the carboot sales are on :ROFLMAO:

Ah nice, I really enjoyed this. Like you said, easy and fun read

I have to admit that I didnt like it as much as the other seasons. There was a lot that happened in a short space of time and although they tied up some loose ends, it seem to ramp up the weirdness a ton. Interested to see where Season 4 goes

I dont know of the bug thing....so I guess not haha
