Art Garfunkel - Everything Waits to be Noticed - superb from start to finish if you are in the right frame of mind which I obviously am right now. Saw him live in Dublin at Vicar Street but to be honest it was a crap concert. He was in a bad mood from the word go. Crap city, crap venue, crap concert. Oh well, we all have days like that.............

consecutive releases from this Great White North band
I had dropped out on vinyl back at Moving Pictures around '81
these two came in at #3 and #2 here
I prefer Counterparts and they're both good albums

Jonathan Wilson's
Gentle Spirit. Gorgeous album. He does all the instruments and vocals on these three tracks - super dreamy and chilled to the point of making you feel a bit sto... oh never mind ...
"Canyon in the Rain" (shortened promo clip, I think. Cool anyway) -

Enjoyed this. Thx Ruby. Reminds me a bit of early Fleetwood Mac.
