Peter Gabriel - Passion (Music for the last temptation of Christ)

This is definitely one of the best sounding albums I own, and it's sounding even better through the Zensor 3 / MS20i Pearl combination.

MS20i - superb speakers I had em early 90s

I bought mine in the 90s too, but definitely later 90s. Were yours the Pearl Editions?

They were my first move in the seperates world, and I've always liked them.

They seem to work really well in multi channel stereo with the Dalis, though the Dalis sound great on their own.

I liked the Q Acoustics set up, but this combination sounds SO much better

An interesting mix of records there Jim-W, of which, I only own Kaya.

I'm starting the day with The Beach Boys - Wild Honey (first time I've played it, and so far, I'm liking it)

Great LP, Nebraska. Sparse, all acoustic, few overdubs. Without intending to put you off I'd say it's Dylanesque in tone and feel.

A morning of vinyl, bits from all below.

Fate - Dr.Dog

He'll Have To Go - Jim Reeves

Greatest Hits - Bill Monroe

Kool Aid - Big Audio Dynamite II

Blue - Joni Mitchell

Satellite of Love 12" - Morrissey

Springsteen generally has a habit of going overboard in the studio, on Nebraska he reigned himself in and made a more personal and vulnerable album. A masterpiece.

Although I'm a sucker for Bruce's blue-collar heroics, I think you've nailed it with 'vulnerability. 'The Ghost of Tom Joad' is similarly engaging. 'Tunnel Of Love' is pretty vulnerable and desperate too...and all the better for it.

Tunnel Of Love is in my top 3 Bruce LPs - Darkness & Nebraska also.

BBB, imagine Bruce's version of Bob's Blood On The Tracks LP! That's how good Tunnel Of Love is.
