Very recently, Patricia Barber's 'Modern Cool' by Music Direct under license from Premonition Records. I noticed my first PB album, 'Cafe Blue' did not have the tag Music Direct in the label. I wonder if the MD can be called a second pressing of sorts. Anyhow, this Modern Cool album is a beautiful album with awesome sonics.
Elton John's Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy just arrived the other day. This an original 1975 London James House DJM 22094 pressing in like new condition that I acquired for 2 quid 50 from ebayuk. Unlike the US MCA Universal pressing this version is not a gatefold and is sonically superior to the 1975 MCA pressing in every way. A real treat for me as Captain Fantastic personally rates as my most favorite EJ release.
My wife surprised me yesterday with several albums she picked up at the local book store. While used they are all mint without a scratch in the bunch. I never knew my wife played so close attention when I checked out vinyl. She did a fantastic job on her first used vinyl buy.
Doobie Brothers -
The Captain and Me
Stampede
Takin' it to the streets
Livin on the fault line
and Supertramp Breakfast in America (one of my all time favorites)
Two of my favorites are there with Doobie bothers and Supertramp Breakfast in America. I used to have the LP version of the latter when it came out. Sadly I no longer do and had to buy the CD again.
