A clean US Steve Miller mastered by 'Wally'. A rare thing given the cost to land anything here from the US.
Low In High School by Morrissey, green vinyl together with Versatile by Van Morrison and Courtney Barnett’s debut so that I could hide the Morrissey album between them.

Last week I bought; Pete Townshend Empty Glass The new reissue on clear vinyl w/inner & poster Neil Young + Promise Of The Real The Visitor 2xLP with the album over three sides Love Pete's album. Glad I invested in The Visitor on elpee. Sounds much better. Listened to it on Spotify before Christmas but didn't invest in CD, am glad I held off.
Van Morrison - Saint Dominic's Preview, Moondance, Beautiful Vision Thin Lizzy - Bad Reputation, Johnny the Fox ....bit of an Irish theme going on there.
