Whats on your turntable tonight?

@slaw

What Mingus album would any of you suggest for a beginner?

The BG-mastered are probably the best sounding, but pricey. A million pressings of this. I would say it’s a top20 all-time jazz classic:  You probably know "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" from Jeff Beck"...this is the OG.

That's his album I've seen mentioned most often for years . Thanks Spencer.

Hilary Hahn - Paris

• Prokofiev - Concerto For Violin And Orchestra No. 1 In D Major Op. 19
• Chausson - Poème Op. 25 For Violin And Orchestra
• Rautavaara - Deux Sérénades

Puttin' on Jack White "Fear of the Dawn" again after implementing some of my newest cleaning regimen.

Listening to side one, though the surface noise has diminished dramatically, the lp sounds compressed to me . Have to turn volume to 3 for it to start really rockin'.
