CD Album
John Barry - The More Things Change (2022)
Review
On first listen this sounds like the John Barry compilation I've been waiting for all these years.

Absolutely brilliant stuff and a perfect selection of the big hits and the more obscure.

I'm already hoping there's a second volume in the works!

Dolly Mixture - Everything And More 1978-1984 (2010)
Review
Everything you need by Dolly Mixture...And More!

A really wonderfully packaged box set with a great booklet with sleevenotes by Bob Stanley and loads of archive photos.

The only problem with this CD set is that they didn't make enough of them and it currently sells for over £100!

I borrowed this copy but hopefully it'll be reissued at some point.

The demo version of 'Everything And More' is especially charming.

CD Album
Various Artists - Mortarhate · A Compilation Of Deleted Dialogue · The Singles (1997)
Review
BEWARE! What should have been an amazing and useful compilation of rare Punk 45s is ruined by wonky mastering. Disc 1 is basically unlistenable.

Various Artists - Resurrection : The Amplified Bible Of Heavenly Grooves (2001)
Review
One of my favourite 'oddball' compilations. I really appreciate the effort they've made to listen through possibly 100s of boring/terrible Christian records to come up with the 16 tracks here which have that indefinable certain something. At times funny, jazzy and sometimes downright weird. I've been listening to this for 16 years now and I'm still praying for a volume 2. Amen.

CD Album
Peggy Lee - Moon Flowers: The Collection: 1952-54 (2007)
Review
Now that Peggy Lee's early recordings are out of copyright there are umpteen compilation CDs. Some with artwork that would make you wince. This one thankfully has nice artwork, is well mastered and tells you where and when all the tracks are from. Overall a job well done but for including the abysmal 'Who's Gonna Pay The Check?' - surely one of her all time worst tracks….

CD Album
Ohio Penitentiary 511 Jazz Ensemble - Hard Luck Soul (2012)
Review
Just when I think my taste in music is maturing enough to enjoy challenging Jazz along comes an album that goes completely over my head. It may be an obscure 'Holy Grail' $100+ collectors item but it don't float my boat. : (
