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
Tchaikovsky 
Francesca da Rimini
Charles Munch and the RP

when Russia was in Europe 
Georges Bizet
Symphony No. 1 in C
Charles Munch and the RP

Bizet’s first symphony and certainly one of my favorite pieces of ballet music. I was lucky enough to see the ballet of the same name, made by Balanchine, at ABT in New York during the Regan years.

So, what were you doing at age 17? Bizet made this for a school project. 

This 1964 record doesn’t have a pop click or any surface noise at all. Sweet sweet sweet.
Art Blakey
Moanin’
Blue Note (reissue)

Say, has anyone purchased a Music Matters SRX issue of this or any other SRX title?   I’m interested in hearing actual listener opinions about them.  I mean 80 bucks for a new record... are they as good as the Mofi one steps?
Albert King
Blues for Elvis
King Does the King’s Things
Stax (80’s reissue of a 1969? Curiosity)

whoa! This will get your blood flowing baby.
