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

@willkimbrough, coincidentally i was listening to sandanista the other day--it’s a lot to wade through but i think it’s unfairly maligned, with fully 75% of it being close-to-genius, albeit in a drugged out way. you also prompted me to revisit "funky kingston"--he’s the only guy who can get me to listen to a john denver song.

my random picks:

roseanne carter, "interiors"--really frickin depressing record. "dance with the tiger" is a perfect pop song.

salem 66, "a ripping spin"--they can just barely play their instruments, but they’re much smarter than your average riotgirls and the songs are there.

swervedriver, "future ruins"--most of these reunion albums blow, but these guys were always more tuneful than the norm and this is as good as their early 90s stuff.

With 5/8 having Audiophile SQ makes for a great listening session! Picking the best SQ album tonight is difficult. I will go with Equinox due to its one of the great 70’s classic rock recordings with top level SQ(Doug Sax) that very few possess.
