Sides 25-44 marathon. I’m immersed in the Robin D.G. Kelley book which is undoubtedly the best biography of any musician I have ever read. Highly, highly recommended.

George Benson - Breezin'

 

[caine]

Orbital Daily Mix (Roon). So far:

Leftfield - Storm 3000
The Orb - Toxygene

Upcoming some Orbitial, Future Sounds of London, Massive Attack, William Orbit, Aphex Twin and some Boards of Canada; that will do pig.

Perfect background music for a Sunday to hopefully solve work related problems.

Two-Tone Records – CHS TT 1217. Ghost Town, 12". This one's an early repress - it's a lot better than the recent Abbey Road.

Is that just the album version?

I don’t know. I do not have the album. Just had a look at Future Shock and both tunes are the same length, so maybe a fair assumption?
