Dick Heckstall-Smith - A Story Ended

Esoteric Records has issued a lot of very good albums from the 70s. There's very little in their catalogue I wouldn't want. ' A Story Ended' is a too little known masterpiece of progressive leaning heavyish rock.

Holy Door (stereo records) - Martin Draax

This is by Martin Draax, one of my favourite artists.

Alessi's Ark - Notes From The Treehouse

Having heard a couple of tracks by Alessi's Ark I bought 'Notes From The Treehouse' and listened to it for the first time tonight. I love this album. I'm an instant fan.

Birgit Zartl - Alone Again Or

This is a new work by one of my favourite artists.

Birgit Zartl - Alone Again Or

2011 - oil and mixed media on paper.

I love this picture. Is the robot lost in the forest or exploring ?

The Byrds - Live at the Royal Albert Hall 1971

I heard this album for the first time tonight on Spotify.
I'm a huge Byrds fan and have been for more than 30 years.
This is the best live recording that I have ever heard by the Byrds and without doubt one of the greatest live recordings by any band.
'Jamaica, Say You will' is sublime. It has become one of my very favourite pieces of music.

You will return - the Mutton Birds

The Mutton Birds are one of the best bands that ever played and recorded. This is probably my favourite of their songs. Breathtaking and heartbreaking every time I hear it.

Things are better in the East - Jefferson Airplane

I adore Jefferson Airplane. They are one of the very best bands that ever existed and hold a place deep in my heart and soul. This has probably been my favourite of their songs since I heard it on the 'Jefferson Airplane Loves You' box set, when it was first officially released.
