Jimmie Lee Robinson – All My Life 45RPM 200g 2LP Analogue Productions Vinyl
If you tire easily of the overdone, overproduced contemporary blues – the garbage that sounds like plastic instruments being played in a tin box – and if you’ve ever wondered why that stuff is even filed under blues, than you’re like Jimmie Lee Robinson. To Jimmie Lee, the blues are more than just fast notes and wild guitar solos. They are about feelings deep and personal. They punch at emotions.
With All My Life, his second APO Records release, Jimmie Lee is aiming for goose bumps and tears. And if you’ve got appreciation for acoustic, front porch blues, you’ll have a tough time escaping his spell.

John Coltrane – Coltrane – Analogue Productions Prestige 180g Mono Vinyl
"Another fine-sounding Prestige mono, Coltrane crackles with spontaneous intensity. Al Heath's drum triplets spark "Bakai," as Coltrane's throaty tenor introduces the repetitive, Arabic-influenced theme. "Violets For Your Furs" is sort of precursor to Coltrane's fine Ballads album (1963), whlle a string of mostly up-tempo tunes follow." Sonics = 4/5; Music = 3.5/5 — Wayne Garcia, The Absolute Sound, January 2013
