Whats on your turntable tonight?

I am clearly out of step with the primary listening adventures being reported. Gives me much to consider in my every expanding explorations, thank you! Last night:

Hans Werner Henze: extracts from Elegie for Young Lovers, DGG 138876
Shostakovich, Symphony No. 5, Kogan/MoscowSSO, Classic Records CR 2001 (second listen and this performance has grown on me - very enjoyable)

In addition to working my way through the Rolling Stones mono lp box..

Luna "Long Players 92-99" box

(FWIW, the Lennon box arrives today)... "and the beat goes on..."

reubent,

I meant to tell you, regarding "Year Of The Cat", I was recently gifted over 200 lps. This one was in the pile. As I listened (for the first time in over 20 years), a calm came over me. Not a bad sounding lp and certainly for around 40 minutes, I was taken back in time, in a good way.

Thanks for your post.

Black Dub "S/T". I can't say enough about how great this lp sounds! (Mine is the 1st pressing)

Highly recommended!

For any Daniel Lanois detractors, check this one out.

a58g,

Glad you enjoyed it. I think it's a great softer rock record. Good early morning wake-up call or nighttime sign-off...

I've really enjoyed this thread, along with "what's playing on your system" and "what's in your CD player". I've found some great music, or was reminded of some old favorites.

I worked late this evening and stopped in the local Half Price Books on the way home. Picked up a few LP's to spin on the Pro-Ject tonight. Got the following:

Jeff Beck - Performing This Week.... Live at Ronnie Scott's (new 180G)
The Knack - Get the Knack (used)
Bruce Springsteen - The River (used)
Emmylou Harris with Spyboy - Live in Germany 2000 (new DMM cutting)
