Whats on your turntable tonight?

Black Dub

Hi e,

I am truly fortunate to have music friends locally who are willing to explore music new to them. I love it because they also introduce me to music I never would otherwise have selected on my own!

Cheers,
Rush

The Wailers - "The Wailers Wail" [Golden Crest LP '59/'6?] The Wailers from Tacoma, WA, stompin' Northwest scene-mates of The Kingsmen, Paul Revere & The Raiders, and The Sonics

Booker T. & The MG's - "And Now!" [Stax stereo LP '66] This monster sounds so alive you can practically see down the throat of Booker T.'s Leslie horn

The Gloria Coleman Quartet featuring Pola Roberts - "Soul Sisters" [Impulse! mono LP '63] Gender-balanced Hammond organ group with Grant Green guitar and Leo Wright alto, Pola Roberts drums.

Cannonball Adderly - "...And The Poll Winners" [Riverside mono LP '60] With Ray Brown, Wes Montgomery, Victor Feldman, Louis Hayes

Bob Brookmeyer/Bossa Nova - "Trombone Jazz Samba" [Verve stereo LP '62] With Jim Hall & Jimmy Raney guitars, Gary McFarland vibes, Willie Bobo drums, Carmen Costa & Jose Paulo percussion

Gabor Szabo - "Dreams" [Skye LP '68] Hungarian psych-funk-jazz at its finest, from the genre's originator, master, and sole exponent!

Great old records from the 1970s and 80s. For example, Fame, George Solti conducting Chicago Symphony Orchestra - Beethoven 9th (London ffrr), George Solti conducting Chicago Symphony Orchestra - Tchaikovsky 5th (London ffrr), Loggins and Messina, Sittin In (Columbia), Leonard Bernstein conducting New York Philharmonic Orchestra - Beethoven 5th (Columbia). I forgot how good the old vinyl sounds!! Also, highly recommend the old London ffrr label -- extremely detailed and dynamic.

Just woke up:

Gordon Lightfoot - Sundown

More after I caffeinate!
