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

Following the lead on a post from a few days ago. I hadn't played this one for quite some time. 

The Kinks - The Kink Kronicles 

1972 Reprise Records 

Early pressing that sounds surprisingly clean and with good SQ. 

I agree with @loomisjohnson on his assessment of Ray Davies' skills as a lyricist.

While Paul was writing love songs Ray was writing about life with songs like Shangri-La and Get Back In Line. 

Although, I may not be an impartial judge seeing how I was always a Lennon fan.

 

Mahalia Jackson – I Believe (Columbia 1960)

Not religious but this gospel is glorious. What a voice.
