Nice list, yo, however the Sibelius track wasn’t very interesting.

It had a few comments when it was first posted. The most on that list from memory.

Another interesting list Algae… this list has a few I haven’t even heard before, so I’m looking forward to listening to them.

Buena Vista Social Club and Massachusetts are the ones I like most. Finlandia is a bit like comparing gold with pewter. Both are royal metals and both have lovely mettle.

There’s something about Massachusetts that I like. The Bee Gee’s produced some fantastic stuff in the early days.

That’s always been one of my faves from the Bee Gees too Algae; their earlier stuff was the best, I think!

That’s the difficulty helvi, I’ve trawled each of Wazza’s and my lists for the past few years and looked at those that received the most comments and put them into lists thinking I’d get a few and ended up with heaps of them. I’ll spin them out over the next few months and maybe some in the coming weeks.

You are doing a very good job, alge. You have picked up nice stuff from your and from Warrigal’s selections; at times they intertwine..

…and slipping in here to just add to Helvi’s sentiments, I remember the album cover was a hot favourite of ours as well, alge. Thank you very much. It’s great to see it chosen here.

I intend to add some of the other favourite album covers as well as some new stunner’s with this series, shoe.

Where is Waz, does anyone know?

Waz often has a read but doesn’t comment much these days. I think he’s recovered / recovering from his blue with the big C and is taking life as it comes on;one and off.
