Spot on. Strut realised that 'Lanquidity' could be more easily sold beyond Sun Ra fans than others of his titles, went for an over the top packaging and marketed it accordingly. They have never been an audiophile label as far as I can tell so not sure why anyone expects them to start now.

Yes, it's a fascinating connection. Maybe Sharrock heard the "desert blues" somewhere My vinyl is dead quiet, not warped and of a standard weight. I don't have an original to compare to, unfortunately. The sound is good to my ears on the released version but is a bit boomy and unsubtle on the other. I'm no audiophile, as this blogger appears to be, and I'm happy to own this as Lanquidity is one of my favourite Ra's.

Great match from a neutral's point of view. Some great play, especially by the Spanish but both sides lack a proven goalscorer (neither Morata nor Immobile score enough from the chances presented them) which would take them to the next level. Italy have been my team of the tournament so I was pleased to see them prevail. Copa America is on in the middle of the night so not likely to see it.

I'm hoping not, but expecting the worst, only because handrling charges have only been charged in the past by Royal Mail when they 'caught'' an eligible package. I'm assuming that if the VAT has been charged at source then this will be apparent and the parcels won't be 'caught/eligible'. I may be missing something but ... Or are you referring to a different handling charge? Do your NI family want to adopt?

I've only listened to the original version so far. Sounds very nice.

It sounds very good, enjoy it when it arrives

A different kind of lazy Sunday groove

This again, gets better with each play. perfect lazy Sunday groove

Thanks, good thought that I'd missed in the red mist...

Sorry to hear that. I was very tempted to buy a ticket for Nu-Civilisation this evening but life got in the way. I may even make the rescheduled date (just listening to Nathaniel facey now, he's a very fine player and I'd love to hear him play Harriott) I didn't know about the play at Hampstead. You were lucky to get the NT tickets, I hear they went in a flash.

Discogs now automatically calculating and adding VAT cost for sales from Europe. "frictionless trade" my arse, thanks Boris and all the other Little Englanders

Well spotted!

A step closer to it coming home but Italy are still my favourites to win as they've been consistently the best team
