ONE shot to show off your System's Stuff

Dead heat between the Classic 45rpm Lp of Louis Armstrong's "St. James Infirmary" or Ella Fitzgerald's "Misty" off of "Let No Man Write My Epitath". both recordings are of musical giants at their absolute prime, perfectly recorded with fantastic music.....magical.

Tim, if you like "Friday Nite In San Fransisco" you should try DiMeola's "Mediterrianian Sundance" on his "Elegant Gypsy" LP.....it is a better performance and better recording.....lacking only the spontinaity of "Friday Night..."

On CD I would definitely go with the soundtrack from Gladiator, on Lp I think a mint copy of Muddy Waters' Folk Singer on MFSL 200G.

Vinyl 45 -St James Infirmiry, but Mike already mentions it, so real! I can't agree more. CD - "Fatha" Earl Fatha Hines. Incredible direct to disc recording and performance by the jazz legend, his last recording at age 78. Gotta get the vinyl.

Vinyl would be the M&K Realtime Label direct to disc "For Duke", selection "Take The A Train". CD would be JVCXRCD "88 Basie Street" or the JVCXRCD2 Dire Straights "Brother In Arms"(Money For Nothing/I Want My MTV is terrific on this disc). Wilson Audio used the "For Duke" album (A Train) to debut their Watt/Puppy 7.0's at HE2002. The Best sound I've ever heard.
