Laurie Anderson – ‘Big Science’
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....TL._SY355_.jpg
I was critical of this album as being a bit ‘weird’, but had to admit I hadn’t played it in years. So I though to be fair I had better listen to it again. Yep – still weird: “uh uh uh uh uh uh uh ………..”
Abdullah Ibrahim – ‘Water From an Ancient Well’

Kate Rusby – ‘Hourglass’
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....1PHZCQRZYL.jpg
Traditional English folk – but not quite of the ‘hand clasped to the ear’ ethnic purity.
Van Morrison – ‘Astral Weeks’

Otis Redding – ‘Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul’

Eric Clapton – ‘Me and Mr Johnson’
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....1wjdLUCbfL.jpg
An excellent appreciation of the works of Robert Johnson.
Bob Marley – ‘Legend’

Tìr Na Nóg - ‘Tìr Na Nóg’
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....ML._SX355_.jpg
“Tìr Na Nóg” translates as “Land of the Fairies”, but this is no hippy ‘tree hugging’ lovefest. More akin to the style and subject matter of Fairport Convention.
Nihonjin – ‘Far Out’
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....qL._SX355_.jpg
Recommended by someone who’s taste I trust, this Japanese 'prog' group is heavily influenced by the likes of Pink Floyd. Two long tracks, neither of which successfully use the time to fully develop. A bit of a disappointment – luckily I didn’t have to pay the full price.
A couple of vinyl records I picked up in a charity shop for peanuts:
Hoyt Axton – ‘Road Songs’
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....1v-mKFKvmL.jpg
Country music. Not my usual cup of tea, but this import isn’t too bad. Think I’ll keep it.
David Sanborn – ‘As We Speak’
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....nL._SX355_.jpg
A sort of cross between John McLaughlin and Steely Dan. Jazz funk - I’m not sure I like it.
