Whats on your turntable tonight?

@spiritofradio Just wondering how awesome the Jennys were last eve ? Parting Glass ?

@tomic601 yes, had a lovely evening with the Jennys, thank you for asking.   Grey’s Anatomy (a pretty good alto herself) was very impressed with the talent.   Yes, unmiked, A cappella, Parting Glass as encore.  Only two songs from their two first albums though.  Mostly new and unfamiliar.  
 

beautiful voices.   To me Heather sort of stole the show.  Her live voice relatively more impressive and surprising compared to what I know of her from recordings.  Ruth most beautiful soprano clearly proven but I have to say she sounds far far better on records than in the room we were in.  
 

the Paramount/Snitzer Concert Hall is one of Portland’s two largest music-purposed venues, seats about 2,800 (sold out - good for them!).  And it’s a long way from seeing them in a 200-300 seat theatre where we used to (right?).  This is where our absolutely great symphony plays and the sound has to be the worst of any major venue I’ve ever heard.  So, although the performances were impressive, the sound was poor at best and did not convey emotion.   I didn’t even cry during One Voice.   
 

Glad we went.  But keep telling myself I shouldn’t attend that venue any more.  My living room system is infinitely better.  
 

At least you got to see them! And btw, it's the Schnitzer auditorium or as some of us like to lovingly call it "the schnitz."

Arrived today,

Marianne Faithful "Broken English" 

2013 remastered. Sounded awesome streaming.

Steve, are you back home listening to vinyl yet? I've seen you mention "arrived today" a few times, but I also see you mention that you are streaming. I can't tell if you are back home or still away.

Regardless, I hope you, and your family are well.
