Whats on your turntable tonight?

@j_husker, I’ve got Kai and JJ in the on deck circle for later. For now around here it’s the sweetness of:

Maynard Ferguson & His Orchestra
The Complete Roulette Recordings Of The Maynard Ferguson Orchestra
1994 Mosaic Records compilation

14 Records - unimaginably good sound

I love this band.

Record 1, recorded May of 1958

Lucinda - S/T 

“I asked for water (He gave me gasoline)”

Love that song!

Record 2, recorded December of 1958

Deutsche Grammophon Gesellschaft
Ludwig van Beethoven Konzert Für Klavier Und Orchester
Nr. 5 Es-Dur Op. 73
Wilhelm Kempff, Klavier
Berliner Philharmoniker
Paul van Kempen, Dirigent
18131 (Germany)1955 Mono (Tulips)

Generic gatefold sleeve with stitched edges. Sound is magical. Even without a mono cart and with the air conditioning situation.

Kempff, wow.  Makes this sound so effortless.
