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
Mr. Mailman just brought me The Flaming Lips "American Head"

I'm thinking this could be a sleeper.
Gale Garnett ‎– Lovin’ Place (RCA Victor 1965)

Man, that’s a hot recording. Probably one of the loudest records per volume level setting I have. Solid performance.
I've been working on my Aimee Mann lps from MFSL over the last two days. These, for some reason had lots of surface noise.

After multiple steamings/US cleanings, I got the noise reduced substantially. I can put my mind at ease now.
Pam Garner ‎– Pam Garner Sings Quietly (Coral 1958)

At the other end of the spectrum, this one's a lot quieter. Definitely a bunch of rows back. Gave it a bump. Better but noise floor is lifted too. Great voice. Shame it's not more in yo face!
David Knopfler "Release"  Passport Records/1983

Listened to this last evening. Decided it needed special care. It received it’s first US clean and flattening. Up now. This is a sleeper lp. Recommended!
