Axo, currently there is a problem with posting RYM images, similar to something that happened on the other MG a while back. I discovered a workaround. Let's say you want to post the album cover to Sting's Dream Of The Blue Turtles.

1) Here is the text we get from RYM. I added a space after the initial [ and the [ preceding "img" to preserve the actual text in this post
[ url=http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/sting/the-dream-of-the-blue-turtles/][ img]//e.snmc.io/lk/f/l/9456fa1b8a59a92e69c100e611812c87/1209657.jpg[/img][/url]

2) Here is what would appear if you pasted the above RYM text into a post:
//e.snmc.io/lk/f/l/9456fa1b8a59a92e69c100e611812c87/1209657.jpg

3) To correct the bug, insert "http:" after " [ img] " but before "//" in the original RYM text. I capitalized it, bolded it, and enlarged it to make it easier to see, but you don't have to do all that. Also, don't insert any spaces that I did to preserve the text for viewing.
[ url=http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/sting/the-dream-of-the-blue-turtles/][img ] HTTP: //e.snmc.io/lk/f/l/9456fa1b8a59a92e69c100e611812c87/1209657.jpg[/url]

When you post the above link with http: added (without my added spaces,) you get this ....

Hope that helps.

Thanks, Randy, that works for me!
 
Lakeside - Fantastic Voyage _1979_

In my ongoing quest to acquire 75% (the good stuff, natch) of all the Funk released during the 70s and 80s, I bought this a few weeks ago. Though it was from a domestic vendor, it had an absurd delivery window of more than 2 weeks. I just received it yesterday, over a week past that window. No worries -- I had enough to keep my ears busy while I waited.
 
J.J. Cale - Naturally (1972)

Alex Sipiagin Balance 38-58 _2015_

I've really been enjoying this since getting it a couple of months ago. Once this has settled in, I'll have to get more by him.
 
This looks interesting. You like?
No, it doesn't work for jazzercise.

Yes, however, is the correct answer. If you like polyphonic chant and the progression of music from Renaissance to Baroque, this might be for you.

As the blurb I linked mentioned, there is some "romantic-period" type singing in the solo voice. To me, this does not detract, but rather enhances the listening experience.
