Thanks Barry, what's the easiest way to download them? I only have FLcikr.

I consider the Dexter Gordon a classic, especially his cover of 'Night in Tunisia', the James Brown is a later 70s LP, the last track is the best - 'Don't tell it'. Got about 5 of his 70s LPs, utter classics.

I use discogs. Type in the artist and title, and then choose the format used. Also choose the country where the format was released. When you have done that, swipe across the information and 'copy'. Then go back into your AoS post and 'paste'. To get the cover artwork you will need to go back to the discogs page click on the small image, which will then show an enlarged version. Click on the small image underneath the larger image and click on 'Copy image location'. Now back to your AoS post and paste in the image, bracketing the url with [img] and [/img].

Phew - I've made it sound so complicated that you might not want to bother. But once you get used to it, it is little trouble to do.

As an aside, Adrian (AJSki2fly) uses discogs to show the titles he posts about, maybe he has a less torturous method of copying and pasting?

Thanks Barry, think I'll stick to flickr!!

One of my all time faves. Al Green - The Belle Album. I heard of this LP through 'The Wire' magazine that I used to read back in the 90s, it was in the '100 best underated records' list, and apparently it's a lofi affair, recordings wise, not that I would have noticed, I just like the tunes. Mine is a UK issue, on the PYE label, not sure about the Cream part of the label, as this was a Hi records release in the US.
