What's Spinning

Awesome to see you got a clean copy! My first copy was so bad! I had loud pops on the second song and it completely skipped on the last track on Side A! Makes me confident my next copy will be perfect! :)

Just from listening to the first and second song from this release, it was already one of my favourite Tone Poet releases! The music on this album is exceptional! A top 5 Tone Poet release thus far! 💎

Apart from looking like it had been used as a bedsheet for some sort of Wind In The Willows themed sex party mine was fine. took three runs through the RCM to get it cleaned up though.

That's great to hear! I plan on getting that Pro-Ject record cleaning machine really soon! I'm so keen to get it!
 
My compatriot Sondre Lerche urges us to have patience. Might come in handy in these trying times, on so many fronts.

I'm not an avid fan of Sondre's, sometimes it's that thing when artists are "too close to home" in a way. Still, a great artist and a very nice guy it seems! He lived in the US for many years, so in some ways probably better known "over there" than in Europe. He gained quite some coverage of his corona-concerts here, so maybe the tide is turning here?

Anyway, this one, his latest, is a very nice "adult contemporary" pop album showcasing his ear for catchy tunes, quirky hooks and chamber pop arrangements. And: the production is top shelf!

My collection #964-965

The Saw Doctors - All The Way From Tuam
Robert Plant - Band of Joy


The Saw Doctors are one of my favourite bands, they just speak to me whether they're poignant or funny tunes. Plus this front cover of Glastonbury is rather nostalgic for me even if I went on three of the muddiest years ever (97 and twice in early 00s). And Robert Plant for me has had pretty much the best solo career of anyone in a big group.

Elysian Spring – Glass Flowers (Despa / Le Tres Jazz Club, 2018 Limited Pressing)

This is probably the rarest album I have ever seen in person (not this copy obviously). I was browsing the shelves at IF Music in London a few years ago and saw they had an original pressing priced at over £2,000. Obviously, no record is worth that amount of money, so for now this reissue on Le Tres Jazz Club will certainly suffice.
