Yep, Leon's first two solo albums are masterpieces. (I'm not counting the Asylum Choir albums as solo here, although I like both those albums too, and have both). Also love his various country albums ("Hank Wilson") with and without Willie Nelson. Got to see him live back in 1972 when his show was a powerhouse performance (think about him on the Bangladesh Concert video). Saw him a year or two before he died at a small club in NYC. A much more subdued performance, but still a great show.
When you think about Leon's contributions to music from back in the early 1960s (Wrecking Crew and the "Shindogs"), Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs tour, and all his other work, there's not many who have had such an impact.Home: Pi4B-8GB/pCP8.2.x/4TB>LMS 8.3.x>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet)

Arno is a well known a praised Belgian singer. He recently turned 70 but he's still going strong.
I am listening to his latest album called
Santeboutique
Some people might know Arno from the band TC Matic. He was the lead singer and produced some great classic tunes with that band.

FWIW The Guardian give it 5 stars, he hasn't sounded like Red Right Hand for a very long time.[emoji3]

Yeah - the other half read that too! Maybe I'm just past it all - been disappointed by so many 'greats' these days. Found myself listening to NDR 1 from Niedersachsen this week on 'Der Tag der deutsche Einheit' when they played only German tracks all day (although many were in English!).FWIW The Guardian give it 5 stars, he hasn't sounded like Red Right Hand for a very long time.[emoji3]

I don't consider myself a 'fan' of any band/artist (I think that suggests being a bit uncritical), but I probably come closest to that status with Nick Cave, who I've been listening to since the first Birthday Party album. Anyway, a couple of more recent purchases, which are substantially different to Ghosteen...
Um Dada by Stephen Mallinder (ex Cabaret Voltaire, currently Wrangler and Creep Show). Nice electronica, almost retro at times. On vinyl, came with a lossless download.
Sonic Citadel by Lightning Bolt. Apparently a move towards 'pop music' by Lightning Bolt, though I don't quite see it. Heavily processed bass and drums, good and noisy. On vinyl, came with a 320k mp3 download.

It is finally here, the second album of Geike. Many people probably remember her as the lead singer of the band Hooverphonic.
Eight years after her first solo album we are blessed with Lost In Time

Jungle By Night - Livingstone
This is their latest album.
A mixture of genres creates an interesting music style. I kind of lost them out of my sight since their first album.
