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
Paul Buchanan - Mid-Air: Blue Nile lead singer solo LP; great music, detailed and dynamic, super quiet pressing; demo disc quality

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours: double LP 45RPM. Although many have said this pressing pales in comparison to the original, it's still quite nice.
U2 - Achtung Baby (so hard to find)

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (180g new pressing, excellent)

Fleetwood Mac - Fleetwood Mac (new 180g, I think it sounds better than my old first pressing, which is still in great shape)

Heart - Greatest Hits

The Clash - Combat Rock

You know I bought a VPI 17 and sold my VPI 16, and I must say it's much easier to clean records with this thing. Easier than I thought it would be, and there's a big difference in the records. The automatic wash wand obviously does a better job than I did manually.
Moody Blues - A Question of Balance. Haven't played this in I don't know how many years (probably decades). Not sure when I bought it. 1970 gatefold with lyric sheet and London Records sleeve. Great sonics. Nice bass. I don't listen exclusively to vinyl. Have plenty CDs. But sometimes you really have to wonder, "digital?" - what were they thinking?! Get a lot of pleasure playing a medium from almost 40 yrs. ago.
