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
Helped an acquaintance last weekend clean out his storage unit.  He let me keep the records (about 300 in all).  I have been sorting through them in, culling the moldy and otherwise damaged.  All in all, about 20 good ones I will keep with the rest going to the trash or Goodwill 
 Listened to:
The Dillards- Roots and Branches
Crosby, Stills & Nash - Crosby, Stills & Nash
Pete Seeger - Songs Of Struggle & Protest: 1930-1950
Pete Seeger - We Shall Overcome

@bdp24 - I played Chris Hillman - "Desert Rose" tonight. Very nice. Really good sound quality, good performances and good music. I wouldn't call it "hardcore" Bluegrass. I'm from Kentucky and I've heard a lot of Bluegrass bands from up in the mountains. Desert Rose is much more polished than the Bluegrass Bands I heard in my youth. I would call it Bluegrass Lite!

Doesn't matter what you call it. It's simply good music IMHO. Unfortunately the cover of the copy I bought (for 15 cents) is pretty trashed. I might look for a better copy, albeit at a much higher price (like $1)!
Little River Band - "First Under the Wire"

From the bargain stash. Some of it is pretty good. Some, not so much....
@reubent, you're right, in the context of Bill Monroe, Jim & Jesse, Flatt & Scruggs, The Louvin Brothers, The Stanley Brothers, Merle Travis, Del McCoury, etc., Chris isn't particularly hardcore. But I used the term with the typical Audiogoner in mind. You're not typical!
