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
That same thing happens to Technics DD tables when one of the antique electrolytic caps fail. The good news is new caps are inexpensive, you should probably replace all of them when you go into the unit.

I did that to my MK2 and I'm having it done to my MK3. I suspect your P3 is suffering from the same problem.
"Kalenda Maya - Songs & Dances 1200 to 1550" - Simax PS 1017 - one of those LPs that demonstrates that digital recordings on vinyl can sound great.

J.S. Bach "Fantasies" for Harpsichord, played by Alfred Gross in a superb LP from Das Ohr.
.
Shadows: Foot tapper EP. One of the first records I bought. Still marvellously fresh, brings me right back to the early sixties.
And - not just tonight, but the last two weeks: the remastered 1970-75 Genesis box, expensive, but very good. To my ears, even more of a positive difference from the originals than with the remastered Doors box (partly, I guess, because the original tapes were in a better condition).
so far-

Pink Floyd "DSOTM" (Harvest SMAS-11163) Purchased in March 1973. A little noisy after all these years, but still my preferred pressing.

Stravinsky "Firebird complete Ballet" Dorati/LSO (Mercury SR90226) 200g 33 1/3 rpm reissue

Next up:
Hugh Masekela "Hope" (Analogue Productions APJ 82020) 45 rpm
Slipknot - please note your impressions of the Hugh Masekela after you listen to it again.

On the turntable now:
Shostakovich "Symphony No. 6" - Berglund/BournemouthSO, EMI SLS 5177 (fantastic!) - coupled with Sym No. 11 which will be up next.
