Thanks again Duncan! Here is what I received a moment ago, anxious to dive in shortly:
- Tea Dance (20s / 30s / 40s vintage tea party) - collection of tracks from Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller Orchestra, Hoagy Charmichael and many more. I love this kind of music !
- The Hatfield and the North - The Rotters Club - I've wanted to listen to more Canterbury music and this will be a good excuse to jump right in.
- News From Babel - (Box Set with 3 CDs) - Sirens and Silences, Work Resumed on the Tower and Letters Home - have no idea about this band, looking forward to exploring these mystery recordings.
Good stuff and thank you again. Hope to write some reviews shortly and will follow Duncan's instructions.
Rotters Club is the best album. Ever.

I didn't get involved, I thought about it but didn't really want to burden Duncan with dealing with postage to Wales. Loving reading what people have received from Chris' collection though, so do keep those posts coming. Really great CDs so far.
Received the package last Saturday
Starting with the ones I have no experience with and that certainly are going to be fun to listen to or to watch, even if not necessarily down my alley. They include the following CDs and a DVD:
Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra – Take Off!
Henry Cow -Western Culture
Dave Willey & Friends – Immeasurable Currents
Weather Report - Live at Montreux 1976 (DVD)
... and then a couple of titles (CDs) I already have and will need to pass to someone:
Van der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts (1987 Charisma)
Electric Light Orchestra - A New World Record (2006 Epic/Legacy)
With warm thoughts of Chris and his generosity, thank you to all involved - Chris' friends and Duncan
"Confusion Will Be My Epitaph"
Hi ! Thanks for asking. I am doing well. Currently working on several projects in my home studio. If you have any more specific questions, feel free to PM me (I added you as a 'friend' yesterday'). My old account lives on my PC, and after the studio was built I switched to Mac and have long forgotten my password to the 'zombywoof' account, which was attached to an email account that no longer exists.
I will miss Chris at PD, he always sat behind Ian and I in the 4 or so years in a row I've attended. I will always remember Chris fondly as the guy with the pipe who knew his stuff about music. In fact, in 2019 I brought my own pipe and enjoyed an afternoon smoke and chat with him !
I am overwhelmed and inspired by his generous choice to share his collection with the PE community. What an incredible legacy to leave to people who will continue to appreciate this music.
I am so honored to receive the Henry Cow set, but will admit I wish it were under better circumstances. I will be thinking of Chris as I listen and enjoy the music !!

I blame Wynton, what was the question?
There are only 10 types of people in the World, those who understand binary and those that don't.
My little grab bag arrived today! Unfortunately, I have all four of these titles already, so I did not luck out with anything new to check out like many here have. And I believe at least two of these have already been a Featured Album, so I will probably be reviewing Divinities which I don't think has been. I'm still looking forward to seeing what everyone else gets though!
Gentle Giant - Octopus (U.S. cover, mine is the U.K.)
Ian Anderson - Divinities (with Tull/ELP ticket Sep 3 1996)
The Beatles - White album disc 2
Genesis - And Then There Were Three
