Nothing had below average SQ tonight.

 

quicksilver messenger service, "shady grove"--poorly recorded, but strangely beautiful, with slow stately slightly trippy songs and gobs of nicky hopkins' piano.

nirvana, "in utero"--always a tough one for me--half the songs are iconic, while the other half (depending on my mood) verge on unlistenable. "frances farmer" is godlike.

wooden wand, "death seat"--not sure what to call this (maybe "freak folk") and it's pretty somber stuff, but it's weird and unpredictable, in the best way.

Poison-Open Up And Say... Ahh!(Tongue cover) Side 2

Josh White was an early stereo version(1961) my guess is the mono might have better SQ? Very close for the SQ crown but none were demo level. 

I cleaned the Al Hirt section today. A lot of work, but man, he played a truly sweet trumpet, what tone. The marathon cleaning and playing session brought back memories of my Mom's record collection and her gorgeous Telefunken console, stayed up way later than planned...

@slaw   +6 on an exceptional playlist. Unfamiliar with Glen Hansard so I listened to each track(Youtube) for about 30 seconds and the songs Ghost/Short Life stood out. Will purchase a vinyl copy if the SQ is well above average?
