ThirdDrawerDown Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Good triphop that only infrequently travels too far into the usual "stimulants required to avoid feeling bored by this" territory. But it does leave me hanging out for some dub.

KRSDarwin Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Not sure Tidal streaming amounts to spinning but this is fabulous album I found through Roon. If I come across it in vinyl I will definitely purchase it. JS Ondara was born in Kenya and emigrated to the USA. Strong clear singing with lovely rhythm and great lyrics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emesbee Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) Joan Armatrading - To The Limit I personally think that this 1978 release from Joan Armatrading is one of her best albums (out of the ones I've heard). The last of three albums produced by Glyn Johns, and the follow up to 'Show Some Emotion' (which I think it surpasses). For some unknown reason though it has been in the hard to get basket for a number of years, with people asking high prices for copies. Fortunately, I have an LP copy which I bought not long after it was released, so have been listening to it quite a bit over the years. I noticed recently though that it has been re-released on CD by a label called 'Music On CD' in 2016, and the price has come down to a more sensible level. So, even though I have the LP, I decided to buy this CD version to see how it stacks up. This is a fairly straight forward release, in that there are no bonus tracks or extra liner notes, just the original album tracks and cover art, albeit packaged in one of those 'Super Jewel Box' cases that they tend to use for SACDs (which this isn't). There is no mention of any remastering on the cover either. Sound quality though is excellent, and I have been playing this on high rotation for the last few days. Wikipedia (the definitive source!) says that she wanted to get more of a live sound with this album, so employed a smaller number of musicians playing as a live studio band, with minimal overdubs. Well, it may be a smaller band, but they have a big sound, and they are brilliant. Everything just works so well on this album, Joan is in fine form, the band is great, providing excellent backing throughout, with some well placed solo parts here and there. I reckon this album is a must have for any Joan Armatrading fan. I could pick a number of songs from the album, but my personal favourite is probably the last track, 'Let It Last', which has something of a gospel feel to it. (Unfortunately the sound quality on this YouTube clip isn't the greatest and doesn't do it justice. The 'Music On CD' release is very good though, as is the LP.) Incidentally, I also notice that her very first album "Whatever's For Us" (1972) is due for re-release on the Esoteric label in April as a remastered and expanded edition. Haven't placed my order yet, but probably will. Edited February 20, 2019 by emesbee 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
