Last night with some friends over:

Schubert - String Quintet in A "The Trout", Vienna Octet/C.Curzon -pf, Decca SXL 2110 Speakers Corner (Just luscious, with incredible piano contribution by Curzon. One of the great performances and recordings of the Trout Quintet.)

Cannonball Adderley - Know What I Mean, Riverside 9433 (45rpm) Analogue Productions reissue (Ridiculously GOOD!)

Stravinsky - Firebird Ballet, Dorati, Mercury 45 rpm reissue from Classic Records (My all-time system reference LP)

Kodaly - Hary Janos Suite, Kertesz/LSO, Decca SXL 6136 Speakers Corner (Marvelous music, performance and recording. This is out-of-print, so get it now if you want it while it's still available at a few retailers.)

Muddy Waters Sings Big Bill Broonzy, Chess LP 1444 Speakers Corner - Outstanding!

Ry Cooder - Chicken Skin Music

Rickie Lee Jones - Rickie Lee Jones, WarnerBros BSK 3296

Isley and Bacharach: Here I am (ok-it's a cd)
(after you left Spence; Dan always brings something unique and special!)
Ella Fitzgerald: "Clap Hands, Here Comes Charlie!", Verve V6-4053 (Classic Records reissue)

Beethoven: Str Qnt in c, op104, Suk Qt, Supraphon 111 2128

Rickie Lee Jones: Naked Songs (ok, its a CD, but its really not available on LP...)

Mahler: Sym 6, Horenstein/StockholmPO, Nonesuch HB 73029 (yes, I'm a Jascha Horenstein fan, love his Mahler 3d on Unicorn/Nonesuch as well. And then there are his wonderful recordings of Panufnik!)

Arturo Delmoni: "Songs my mother taught me" NorthStar DS0004 and John Marks Records JMR One (various works for violin and piano, performed with that limpid beauty of tone that Delmoni so characteristically delivers; dripping romanticism! Wonderfully recorded by the superb recording engineer David Hancock.)

Mozart: Sonatas for Violin and Piano, Shumsky (vn), Balsam (pf), ASV ALH 950, 954, 964 (3 volumes), just pulled out random sides to play. Shumsky is hard to beat in these works.
