Fresh new release:
Van Morrison and Joey DeFrancesco ~ You're Driving Me Crazy ~ CD

Wow, Van doing jazz standards and his old tunes with Hammond B-3 genius Joey D.
No bassist, Joey plays it all on the Hammond.
Deep bass in full-range fronts, no sub required.

All live first or second takes.
(Van cackles with delight at the end of several.)
A fantastic bookend with the Deluxe Moondance I recently picked up.
(Which has multiple takes in the teens and 20s on the bonus material, none of that here, these guys are pros.)

Latest additions for me:

Wonder Woman [OST by Rupert Gregson-Williams]
Restoration (Elton John tribute by country artists)
Revamp (Elton John tribute by pop/alternative artists)
 
What a wonderful surprise.
If you like 70s, Crosby, Pink Floyd, Singer/Songwriter this one is a glorious one I discovered:

I thought these were Jazz CDs...but it appears they have a "country" vibe....

Snood's, right [AS USUAL].....AmazonUK did mix up the reviews but I'm listening to these fabulous BLUE NOTES as we speak and they're AWESOME. NO COMPRESSION. An ABSOLUTE STEAL! The weird thing.....I didn't pay for Expedited shipping and they arrived within 3 days [UK>New York]!

And methinks SNOOD needs some JAZZ in his life!:LB

I just ordered them...but amazon US is the guilty party on reviews..not amazon UK..
 
That happens a lot..BUT..in this case they REALLY screwed the pooch...they used the same item number on the US site and put completely different reviews on there.....check out this mess the US site screwed up

YIKES! And the AmazonUS price is almost $30 [w/tax] and it's OUT OF STOCK.

I think you'll enjoy them, Clint! They're boxed beautifully but unfortunately, no booklet or liner notes. Wikipedia to the rescue?
