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
In addition to working my way through the Rolling Stones mono lp box..

Luna "Long Players 92-99" box

(FWIW, the Lennon box arrives today)... "and the beat goes on..."


reubent,

I meant to tell you, regarding "Year Of The Cat", I was recently gifted over 200 lps. This one was in the pile. As I listened (for the first time in over 20 years), a calm came over me. Not a bad sounding lp and certainly for around 40 minutes, I was taken back in time, in a good way.

Thanks for your post.
Black Dub "S/T". I can't say enough about how great this lp sounds! (Mine is the 1st pressing)

Highly recommended!

For any Daniel Lanois detractors, check this one out.
a58g,

Glad you enjoyed it. I think it's a great softer rock record. Good early morning wake-up call or nighttime sign-off...

I've really enjoyed this thread, along with "what's playing on your system" and "what's in your CD player". I've found some great music, or was reminded of some old favorites.

I worked late this evening and stopped in the local Half Price Books on the way home. Picked up a few LP's to spin on the Pro-Ject tonight. Got the following:

Jeff Beck - Performing This Week.... Live at Ronnie Scott's (new 180G)
The Knack - Get the Knack (used)
Bruce Springsteen - The River (used)
Emmylou Harris with Spyboy - Live in Germany 2000 (new DMM cutting)
reubent,

The music is what still gets me excited. I appreciate your enthusiasm, it is infectious. ( I hope it's alright for one music lover to say that to another?...laughing).  If you haven't already, check out "Tune of the day".

Springsteen is one of the many artists I always liked but never bought many lps. I recently bought a used "The River" (lp). Lots of good music, however the sonics are kind of thin. Side 4 has one track that stands out (I can't remember off hand which one, but you'll know it when you hear it. It has some good bass). I really liked "Point Blank".

On the "Tune of the day" thread, I recently posted "Drive All Night" by Glen Hansard. This is his cover of BS/"The River, side 4, track3.

( I re-listened to "YOTC" this morning. A great sounding lp!)

Today, I've been listening to, among others, Radiohead's "OK Computer"/original UK 1st press, and "Moon Shaped Pool". Interesting to hear the growth of this band.

Happy Listening!
