Whats on your turntable tonight?

Hi,

King Crimson - Lark's tongue in Aspic - UK original, very early copy
Can- Future days - Reissue Germany
Rush - Permanent waves - Canada original, with Rays on matrix
Caravan - Caravan - UK first stereo issue 1969 on Verve Forecast

@drrsutliff Congrats on the Purpleheart!  I have the Kiseki Blue NS and have been really happy with it.  It outshines all my other carts and is a nice pairing with my new (to me) VPI Classic 3.

Well, since I had to go the eye Doctor for a check-up, and had my eyes dilated, can’t get much work done, so may as well play music ;-)

Juilliard String Quartet - Debussy and Ravel String Quartets. RCA Victor ‘Living Stereo’. 1960. Reissue....date?

@geof3. I agree. The live stuff can be muddy of course.  There are some exceptions though, like Rio and this new PW issue.  Some (especially some of the early live releases) are incredibly low on SQ but the energy and musicianship talent is just so incredible that it makes sense (in a way unique among bands issuing live albums) I guess because that is their sound.  I mean, did you ever like the sound mix at a Rush concert?  I never did - but they were awesome nevertheless. 

@petg60, Wow, great set. Are you my twin brother from a different mother ...?

Albert King
Blues at Sunrise

Stax

From the 80’s era when we would see Albert when he’d come through New York. This guy is the man. Never understood why he didn’t get as much love as that other big fellow....
