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

I wonder if there is a sweet spot regarding how many minutes of content are optimal when considering maximizing content, without affecting Sound Quality. I'm likely not as critical of a listener as some of you, so I find it annoying when there is only 10/12/13 minutes of content on a side, pushing the album to two disks unnecessarily.

However, if the Sound Quality is noticeably improved (even though I don't necessarily hear it), I'm all for it.

Tom, For example on Pat Metheny - Side Eye, 62 minutes of music on 4 sides.  Great sounding record although not on a fancy label.  

Not sold on 45 rpm or 2 LP versions. I've 70s almost flexi-thin vinyl that sound incredible and 180 gram LPs that are noisy and dull. Give me an analog 50s/60s disk most days.
