Whats on your turntable tonight?

I have been too busy to post up but due to a snow storm and working from home I got to do some listening between conference calls. Especially nice since I just got a new Ypsilon SUT. Damn thing costs as much as the rest of my system, but Mike Morrow is very persuasive (he lent it to me to hear first).

e,
Nice to see a few of my favorite recordings in your recent playlist, including particularly:

Gustav Holst "Savitri" Argo
Shostakovitch "Age of Gold","Symphony #1" Decca LSO/Martinon

My listening partner and I are currently working our way through our collection of alternative performances of Mahler's symphonies. Finished through the 1st through the 4th symphonies at this point (21 different recordings), on to Barbirolli's performance of the 5th tonight, with Kubelik and Solti to follow at some later time.
.

Bombay Bicycle Club - I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose
Marc Cohn - Join The Parade

Rush that sounds like fun. I envy you having a listening partner.

I have been working my way through the Shostakovitch symphonies. I have the 1st with the same combination as the Decca only it is on a ancient RCA Victrola label. On the whole it is quite excellent.
My lp of the 9th is bundled with the Prokofiev "Lieut. Kije"; it is on Everest with the LSO and Malcolm Sargent.
It is well played but the pressing isn't the best.

I also have the 5,8 on Everest. more later
