The Cure – Songs Of A Lost World
Another "bioplastic" vinyl release. Is this the new marketing fad? Biovinyl akin to the 180 gm vinyl marketing hype? Or a genuine good thing? BTW, the music is excellent, a long awaited release and well worth it. Sound quality is a bit disappointing, could do with more clarity.

Grandaddy – The Sophtware Slump .​.​.​.​. On A Wooden Piano
Acoustic piano version of their 2000 The Sophtware Slump LP I prefer this stripped down version, with just vocals and piano. Brilliant!

Aussie/NZ band The Necks latest, BLEED lp
"Minimalism, that then expands and contracts, developing into a myriad of forward moving pulsating themes." couldn't have said it better myself!

However, IMO Lucky Jim showcases that Jeffrey Lee Pierce (RIP) was pretty talented: "I see music as a lifetime affair." [Rory Gallagher]

Some of the best sounding piano recorded that I have heard from my system!
And from a pianist that I have long enjoyed. His Beethoven Op 111, 1977 is what first brought him to my attention, and if only they would do an Original Source Series of that!

The Penguins Girlfriends Guide lists this live Cherkassky 1968 recording which makes him 59 in fact - not the youngster pictured.
