I'm not sure how you would describe Hania Rani really Barry, neo clasical pianist? She's Polish and has a style all of her own, this is probably my favourite album of hers. Influenced by Nils Frahm if you know him?

Discovered her through this song (Glass), which is still the one I play the most.

I still rate this one up there as one of the best things that anyone has ever done ever.
Ha! I shall be on my guard... :fence:Quote:

I don’t really know Bluegrass, but found this album on tidal, and it’s rather jolly! A virtuoso Mandolin player, plus she has a nice voice. Very enjoyable.

Saturday afternoon demos in the shop. One of those well used LPs along with Michael Jackson, The Wall.Quote:

Another one not played through in a long time!
I have that one, and like you I haven't played it for a good while now.Quote:

Oh go on, then! Probably not the first album that springs to mind when you want some Orbital - 2004’s Blue album is nonetheless a great slab of music reminiscent of their early stuff.

20 CDs! Look forward to hearing from you again in August, Mike. :lol:
Joking aside, having had a look at the tracklist on Discogs I am not sure there is very much on those 20 discs I would actually know.
Yeah, could be a mission :lol: It's actually a highly rated, well known compilation, if you're into 60'S Psych / Garage / Freakbeat Alex. Lots of rare and obscure tracks on it. Every bit as good as the Nuggets compilations, imo.Quote:

Funnily enough, that one (vol 13) is the one I had started listening to, as it is on Tidal along with a few others. Not sure it will be my thing, but you never know until you try!
Exactly. All anybody can ask is that you give it a try. Certainly my thing, so for me, it's -Quote:

I’ve been looking at the vinyl prices of some of the tracks I most like on these CD’s and they are averaging out at, wait for it ….. …… …… £350 ! a pop.
WTF ! ?
Makes the boxset something a tad more than a bit of a bargain, methinks.
Not spinning, but 5000% microtonal awesome.
Extremely addicting.

I hope you got them cheap. eBay prices are mental.Quote:

She's super talented Alex, seen her a couple of times.Quote:

It's rather good, a gentle relaxing play and one of my favourite albums.
Yes, I did.Quote:
