I seem to have collected LP12 in daily use Rega Planner 3 which my daughter now uses Rega 25 which is lovely and used occasionally and a Systemdek IIX which is now used very rarely.

Stormy Monday with Lou Rawls is one of my favourites and will played this evening.

This is indeed gorgeous. Also try the Berlin Mass. There is an issue on Naxos that is excellent.

Works grand. We have this throughout our house on the first floor.

I bought a Tesla before Musk became more than just a mega egotist but some thoughts Everything apart from the indicator, beam lights, pulsing a windscreen wiper and shifting gear, everything is controlled from the screen. This means if you wear glasses you do need to be able to see the screen...

I always had a soft spot for "Eastbound Train' by Dire Straits on the back of 'Sultans of Swing'. A perfect double A side for me. Although as I lived in New Cross for many years I may be biased!

John Martyn for me too.
