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
Listened again tonight with a fellow wanting to audition the Allnic, short session but the following got spun before shutting down.

Massive Attack, "Heligoland"
Eric Clapton, "Layla"
Hampton Hawes, "Everybody Likes Hampton Hawes"
The Dave Brubeck Quartet, "Brubeck Desmond"
Daniel Lanois, "Acadie"
1. procol harum--exotic birds and fruit. post-trower; generally ignored, but actually quite excellent--less arty, more concise than their earlier stuff. "the idol" and "new lamps for old" are among the best songs they ever recorded.
2. thin white rope--exploring the axis. the great lost guitar band of the 80s--brilliant, hooky, twisted psychy stuff in the same general ballpark as meat puppets and television, but entirely unique. the leader, guy kyser, is a genius.
3. sex clark five--strum and drum. really melodic, rem-ish one-minute pop tunes with clever, if incomprehensible, lyrics. 25 years after first hearing this, i still remember these songs.
The Originals - "Baby I'm For Real" [Soul LP '69]

Luther Ingram - "If Loving You Is Wrong I Don't Want To Be Right" [Koko LP '72]

Moments - "Moments With You" [Stang LP '76]
Nancy Wilson/yesterdays love songs, todays blues---red garland trio/ a garland of red---frank sinatra/ where are you tonight---rolling stones/sticky fingers(m.f.s.l.1/2sp.master).
On the TT tonight is the new pressing of Cat Stevens Tea for the Tillerman on Chad Kassem's new label... Analogue Productions...Quality Pressings.
BIG disappointment for this much praised pressing....Something went seriously wrong with this LP, IMHO..:0(
