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
ok it's my CD player again sounding even more analogue than it ever has thanks to GNSC spun Pink Floyd "The Wall" hearing many details previously unheard before.
Tonight:

More Bach:
Starker: Suite 3 for Solo Cello, Mercury, Speakers Corner reissue
Delmoni: Partita 2 for Solo Violin, WaterLily 07, followed by the flip side with music of Kreisler and Ysaye.

Supertramp: Crime of the Century, A&M SP 3647 (I just don't understand people who trash this US pressing. It's very good. But, I haven't heard the Speakers Corner reissue or a good British pressing to compare. Anyone?)

Coming up later:
Holst: Savitri, Holst,I/ECO, Purcell Singers, J.Baker, Argo ZNF6 (and compare to ZK98) (a real treat if your system can generate a deep, broad and realistic soundstage)
.
Ruston,
I can't speak to the US pressing of "Crime Of the Century", but I do have the 180g Speaker's Corner reissue. We'll have to spin it on that Walker of yours one of these days. It's holographic, information far beyound the boundries of the loudspeaker. Very quiet surface.

Tonight:
Ravel "Bolero" Bizet "Carmen Suite" Wallenstein/Virtuoso Symphony of London (Audio Fidelity FCS 50,005) Disc is one of several Audio Fidelity recordings aquired this weekend ata library booksale. Excellent condition, just need to run them through the RCM and put them into fresh sleeves.
Joe, I'd like to hear the Speakers Corner reissue. Let's plan to compare the two the next time we can get together.

Hi. If you and Joe decide to do a shoot out with Crime of the Century I have the MFSL and Mike may have an original UK.
I've always loved that album. The Speakers Corner is supposed to be very very good and some have reported it's better than an original UK.
