Jordi Savall, Hesperion XXI (et al) - Francisco Javier : La Route de l'Orient (third in the Alia Vox ultra deluxe hardback book packages; an expensive hobby, but make hay whilst the sun shines, or when MDT are doing them at a special price...)

Peter Bellamy - Fair England's Shore (double CD bringing together Fair England's Shore, Mainly Norfolk & The Fox Jumps Over the Parson's Gate.)

Back Door - Askin' the Way (2003 reunion of the original trio with new & old material exquisitely rendered...)

Montserrat Figueras - Tarquinio Merula : Arie e Capricci (Newly remastered deluxe Alia Vox edition of this classic recording...)

The Fall - Perverted By Language (2005 Castle double edition of the last classic Fall album, albeit post-Riley, but before Brix's pop sensibilities had kicked in. Replete with extras, including the Peel Session from March 23rd 1983 on which they performed the definitive version of Garden...)

And last but not least...

Dr Strangely Strange - Kip of the Serenes (new remastered edition on Hux - lovingly remastered, complete lyrics & copious notes plus choice extras, including a chorus of Ranzo...)
