	posted a review of Buena Vista Social Club - Buena Vista Social Club. over 3 years ago Whether digitally remastered or no, the presentation of the music is excellent on this LP. Never heard anything quite like this before, but became interested following seeing the film. Repays repeated listening. Nicely designed sleeve and... See full review
	posted a review of Annie Lennox - Medusa. over 3 years ago Hard to say whether I like this or Diva more. Purchased both CDs in the 1990s and more recently both LPs in 2020. Original recording are (of course) outstanding and presentation on both LPs is excellent.
	posted a review of Wiener Philharmoniker, Karl Böhm - Beethoven: Symphonie Nr.2 Ouvertüren "Prometheus" - "Coriolan". over 3 years ago Enjoyable all round recording from Hohn / Vienna Philharmonic - especially tracks B2 & B4. DG pressing well up to typically high standards.

	posted a review of Beethoven* - Wiener Philharmoniker, Carlos Kleiber - Symphonie Nr. 5. over 3 years ago Enough already said - outstanding! Haven’t heard the audiophile re-release (2015) but the original (1975) is well-worth owning.
	posted a review of Strawinsky*, Berliner Philharmoniker, Leopold Stokowski - Der Feuervogel / Petruschka (Balletsuiten). over 3 years ago An exceptional album, both musically, dramatically and technically. Still fresh 66 years after the recording was made.
	posted a comment on Blind Faith (2) - Blind Faith. over 5 years ago Howsoever engineered, an excellent LP: raw, uncut, transparent sound - almost as if the band are playing in front of you.
