Whats on your turntable tonight?

Playing now:
Pink Floyd: "Wish You Were Here" - Mejames, thanks for the added encouragement... I can't believe how GOOD this early Columbia pressing sounds! I was expecting to find sonic mediocrity, but no way. This pressing sounds really good: clean, open, dynamic. Columbia PC 33453; Deadwax: AL 33453-1A (2A handwritten next to it).

The Who: "Who's Next"
Hmmm... also better sounding than I was expecting from this MCA label issue (MG7-12888-W3). Makes me wonder what a first pressing Decca pressing would sound like?

Just goes to show that increasing the resolution of one's system does NOT make one's ancient well-played LPs sound worse: these never sounded better.

Coming up:
Suk, String Qt 2, Suk Qt, Supraphon 1111 3370
.

Just finished:
Respighi "Church Windows" (Reference Recordings RR-15 45 rpm)
Louis Armstrong "Satchmo Plays King Oliver" (Audio Fidelity AFLP 1930)
Bach "Suites For Unaccompanied Cello" Janos Starker (Mercury SR3-9016 reissue)
Upcoming:
Pink Floyd "Delicate Sound Of Thunder" (Columbia PC2 44484)

Pink Floyd: "Ummagumma" in an early EMI/Harvest pressing ("Gigi" cover). Some folks don't care for this album, imo its their loss. Early PF showing a lot of where they were headed over the next several years.

Eric Bibb: "Good Stuff" Opus3 LP 19603 - 45rpm 2LPs - A nice bluesy mix, with good instrumentalists backing Bibb's vocal and guitar. Recorded "in the moment," no editing after the fact, no overdubbing, in a natural acoustic environment. All-analogue with minimal processing in that classic Opus3 style of great sonics.
