Whats on your turntable tonight?


For me its the first or very early LP's of:
Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South"
Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue
Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer"
and,
Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
slipknot1
Coleman Hawkins -Night Hawk on Prestige/Swingville 2016
This is another beautiful 45RPM Analogue Production reissue.

Ella and Qscar on Pablo/45RPM Analogue Production reissue.
Beautiful pairing. Sonically excellent.

Rolling Stones -Sticky Fingers on Mofi
Nice sonic detail and very quiet. Great guitar work once again. You can crank this one way up.

XTC -SkyLarking on a one-sided (B) white label test pressing from Virgin UK. What a find and yes it sounded supreme!

Yusef Lateef - Eastern Sounds on Transatlantic UK
One of my favorites from the hometown Detroit artist.

Bob Dylan -Modern Times on Columbia
What a solid album, the old guy's not nearly done yet.

Tom Waits -Mule Variations on Anti/Epitaph
Another strange and very cool outing. I can't tell you how disapointed I was to miss him in a rare live appearance at our opera hall. That might well have been a once in a life time event.

Doors -L.A. woman on Elektra/DCC
What more needs to be said, Steve Hoffman and vacuum tube cutting systems. Emmmmmm!

Tom Petty -Wildflowers on Warner Brothers.
Very under rated in my opinion. Nice.

We listened to quite a few more things but, these are the ones that stand out in my mind.

Happy Listening!
Back from RMAF, thought I should start posting to this thread again. Getting used to having Kharma loudspeakers in my listening room after living with Magnepans for so many years.

Donald Fagan "Morph The Cat" (Reprise 49975-1)
"Soundtrack From The Emerald Forest" (Varese Sarabande STV 81244)
Mark Knopfler "Soundtrack From Local Hero" (Warner 23827-1)
Sounds like a good evening, Joe! Wish I could be listening with you. For Sunday, I've pulled out the new Everest Khatchaturian reissue from Classic, an early Leo Kottke ("6 and 12 String Guitar"), the new Skip James "Today" reissue from Pure Pleasure, and a few other items.

Rush-
I had the Khatchaturian on my shopping list for RMAF, but Acoustic Sounds did not have it. I'm planning on bringing the "Emerald Forest" soundtrack with me along with a slideshow of photos from Denver. Provided I get them edited down to a reasonable number by then.
Last night I dug out a few old LPs that haven't been played in years:
Manhattan Transfer - Brasil
Melissa Manchester - Emergency
Judy Collins - Judith
Hubert Laws - Rite of Spring
The Romero's - An Evening of Flamenco
Pepe Romero - Guiliano
Mike Oldfield - Incantations

And some recent acquisitions:
Duke Ellington - Duke's 70th Birthday Concert
Synergy - Chords
Al Dimeola - Land of the Midnight Sun

And some old regulars:
John Abercrombie - Timeless
Bryan Ferry - Bette Noir
