DavidThe audiophile vinyl box set of this has just been released. While I’m not at all interested in an analogue version of a digital recording, the high resolution bu-ray version will do me nicely thanks, I did watch a YouTube reveiw by German vinyl guru Michael of 45RPM Audiophile fame.

DavidThere’s been a recent but gradual (r)evolution in my musical consumption of late, firstly with the introduction of headphones, but now taken to the next level with the purchase of a dedicated headphone DAC.

DavidI picked up this original 1968 pressing recently as I was aware of it’s apparent legacy as a stone cold Psychedelic classic.

DavidThe big news of the day was the passing of guitar maestro and personal hero, Jeff Beck. I chose not to spend the evening playing his music but did play a couple of tracks earlier in the day.

DavidI don’t know why I even bother reading reviews on “Pitchfork.com”. Despite being around for more than a decade, Alt-J is a very recent discovery.

DavidThis multi-national collective make some of the most magical music I’ve heard in a long time. Another band that is genre-less (a favourite genre of mine) which I’d put firmly in the Broadcast and Stereolab camp.

DavidI’ve always been really impressed with the the non-genre disclosure of this very clever English gentleman born to Ugandan refugee parents.

DavidI’ve finally got my space/place back where I can listen to the weird shit. With my grandkids now safely back in Australia, some semblance of order or disorder returns.

David1996’s “Walking Wounded” and this, their last record as EBTG, have aged very well indeed. Moving from acoustic folk/pop music to electrified trip hop and dance was a bit of a bold move.

DavidFuck Yes!! While there’s some poppy, happy-clappy stuff on this record (incidently, this is the brand new, freshly minted 3CD deluxe edition), there’s still a wonderful, post-“Disintegration”, doom-laden dirge as thick as treacle.
