@noromance +1 for The Incredible String Band, I only have them on CD but am always on the lookout for vinyl Daryl Hall “Sacred Songs” RCA 1977 (without John Oates, produced by Robert Fripp who plays guitar and Frippertronics) Takayuki Shiraishi “Missing Link” Studio Mule Japan 2019 Tom Recchion “Proscenium” Elevator Bath 2012 Normal Brain “Lady Maid” Vanity Records Japan 1981 |
James, It's a nice chamber performance, something I hadn't heard any others by Prokofieff. Side 1 is all quintet: clarinet, oboe & strings. Side2 is piano/clarinet(common in Jewish folk music--Klezmer, etc) and violin on track1, followed by a piece for string quartet, woodwinds & french horn. While it's up & down on pace, most of this is minor key, moody stuff; some of it reminds me of the Borodin/ Shostakovich String Quartet LP that gets many raves. Unfortunately, my pressing is a bit noisy and having plenty of quiet passages, I was wishing for a better copy. |
