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

I just bought a big pile of records and CDs at the local record store. At the moment however I am listening to one of those little silver discs, Dire Straits - On Every Street. I bought a couple of vinyl copies and they both sounded like crud, very noisy. The CD actually sounds very good. I think this is the only Dire Straits that MOFI didn't do on vinyl. Maybe a 45 RPM version could overcome the limitations of putting that long of an album (60 minutes) on one record. I know it's not their best, but I like this album.

Steve, face it, you are an addict.  But it's a really good addiction.  Enjoy them all.

After a movie tonight with my wife, this is what I have on deck for the turntable.

Annie Lennox - Diva   Just got this and have listened to it once.  Have to play it again.  What a fabulous voice she has and what a great album.

The Motels - S/T   Got this about 6 weeks ago.  Love it, just awesome.  Have to play it again before filing it with my other Motels albums.

Pink Floyd - A Momentary Lapse of Reason, 45rpm reissue.  Seems like that will be a wonderful way to end the evening before bedtime.  Just float upstairs and drift to sleep.

Enjoy the music tonight, all.

Thanks for the nice comments on the VAC, everyone. It makes some lovely music.

Steve, I sold the Luxman to a lucky fellow in California. I have nothing but great things to say about it. So many flavors of ice cream in this hobby. Let's just say the VAC is a flavor that I really, really enjoy! Glad you'll be returning home soon.

Thanks Joel. I resemble that remark!

edit: A co-worker brought me a nice size box of vinyl last week. Several Wishbone Ash pp in the pile.

 

Greg, I have a few copies of On Every Street. Love the lp!.I remember comparing years ago. Have the op/EU copy too.

 

Chris, I’m learning that "flavor" thing more than ever now on my streaming system. It’s evolved more that ever. Currently using the Tannoy Gold 7 and Love that dual concentric driver!

 

Thanks Tim.
