Super impressed with the quality of the new USA-issued #LindaRonstadt 2LP compilation #TheEarlyYears
Capturing tracks from her 4 Capitol-era albums, the gatefold album comes with heavyweight #vinyl housed in anti-static inner sleeves
Worth the import costs!

Loving this 25th anniversary edition clear #vinyl of #MarkKnopfler & his 2000 LP #SailingToPhiladelphia (UK No 4 / US No 60)
The title track just stuns (with #JamesTaylor on duet) … I remember #BBCR2 (& #Wogan) playing it a lot back in the day! … & #WhatItIs is a terrific opener

I finally caved in & bought the orange glitter #vinyl of #TaylorSwift’s latest album, #TheLifeOfAShowgirl
I have to say I’m rather impressed.
The vinyl looks great and the packaging is superb, especially the design of the inners
#Opalite is (IMO) the best song - but a great album worth the cost

What a fabulously camp time seeing the #Steps musical #HereAndNow at the #WalesMilleniumCentre in #Cardiff
Fantastic cast who brought energy, joy and humour to the songs.
A fab jukebox musical … definitely not a #Tragedy

My son is out at a play date so I unexpectedly have time to spin a record … so choosing #Keane & this 2022 aqua 2LP reissue of their 2013 UK No 10 #BestOf
Everybody’s Changing takes me instantly back to 2003 …
Not to get maudlin but where have the last 23 years gone? It feels like yesterday

Another fab #CharityShop find today with #Troubadour from #JJCale
Released 50 years ago in 1976, it reached UK No 53 / US No 84, was his fourth album, and was perhaps most famous for #EricClapton covering the track #Cocaine

Wow! 27 years since the start of #Blondie’s #NoExit era
What an album
And as an aside, I sure miss collecting #CDsingles with different editions and bonus tracks. I even feel nostalgic for those #VirginStore price stickers!
