My latest monthly playlist is now up on Spotify. A varied selection of old, new and new to me records inspired by the change in the season and recovering my health. I hope there's something in the selection that makes you dig further.

Another new to me thing. This is a couple of years old and sounds like it could have been released anytime in the last 50 years. Stunning.
