Whats on your turntable tonight?

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

Dukes of Dixieland on 1959 Audio Fidelity vinyl. Nice!

Interesting technical specs regarding the recording on the album cover. Hi Fi was a big deal back then and some labels really made an all out assault on sound quality and people took notice.

Those were the days......

Holst, The Planets Mobile Fidelity

Cat Stevens "Teaser and the Firecat"

Al Stewart "Year of the cat"

Dave Brubeck "Impressions of Eurasia"

Joni Mitchell "Song to a Seagull","Blue", "Ladies of the Canyon", "Clouds"
