December 4, 201510 yr comment_712721 Probably can do half that. I will keep my eyes peeled. So, I got a copy for 21,000¥. If you are interested, then I would actually ask that you receive and keep my copy until next year, as I am leaving in a week for Asia (ironically). We would probably split the shipping, or something like that. So, it's doable to get it for list, PM if interested. Report
December 8, 201510 yr comment_713110 https://solace1.bandcamp.com/album/the-ruin-of-ghosts Knucks -- listen to "Bury the Dead Raven" if nothing else -- sounds like something you'd spin (did you realize your genre is "belly dancing music"? Lollers). Report
December 11, 201510 yr comment_713364 I'm looking forward to picking up the new edition of The Real Thing (hope it's not "loudness"-remastered). I grabbed the MoFi edition of Angel Dust a few months ago and I enjoy it a lot. Report

December 16, 201510 yr comment_713813 Roxy Music – Manifesto Roxy Music – Flesh and Blood Edited December 16, 201510 yr by HiWire Report
December 16, 201510 yr comment_713852 Thanks! I'll definitely check this out. Seems to be only available on vinyl (Glasgow)... the reviews on the DVD look good, too (seems to be a different recording from France)... I might split the difference and get the Heart Still Beating CD (audio version of the French performance) as well. Edited December 16, 201510 yr by HiWire Report
December 16, 201510 yr comment_713854 Yeah, it's just an EP, so listen to it, decide if it's worth bothering (the above YouTube appears to be the actual vinyl -- I only just learned that about the performances being different, but I grew up on that EP -- that's what got me into later Roxy Music -- so it holds a special place in my heart, and explains why I didn't feel I'd heard those particular performances recently) -- I doubt it, a lot of fondness comes from familiarity, IMHO. I think the other available performances are perfectly good, too, and have grown to like them (just like the difference in sequencing on The Name of this Band is Talking Heads -- I am now quite fond of the CD release).

December 17, 201510 yr comment_713875 It's a good performance... well-recorded and stirring. I put a used German pressing (hope it's a decent one) in my shopping cart along with the Talking Heads set. The reviews of the French Roxy performance seem a bit mixed, so I'll wait on that one.

December 18, 201510 yr comment_714010 Björk - Vulnicura. I must admit I always thought she was too weird for her own good but this album is pretty fascinating and requires additional spins streams. Report
December 18, 201510 yr comment_714012 ^ Agreed on both accounts. I would steer clear of the all strings version, however. Report
December 18, 201510 yr comment_714014 ...But Nothing Is Lost is one of those albums I revisit maybe once a year and forget how surprisingly good it is. Report
December 18, 201510 yr comment_714027 Vulnicura is her weirdest album yet. And that's saying something. Report
December 19, 201510 yr comment_714031 Shpongle's Nothing Lasts is my favorite album of theirs. The newer ones are good too, but none are quite as sublime as this one. Edited December 19, 201510 yr by HiWire Report
