Whats on your turntable tonight?

Zaikes, Otis Spann! You've inspired my next LP...

Rushton, think I'd like to hear the "Age of Gold" sometime. It sure is advertised a bunch lately.

Joni Mitchell - Miles of Aisles - super live album; what a songbook. Easy to take for granted how many great tunes she wrote.

Byrds Greatest Hits, the most-played $1 garage saler of the year for me

Renaissance - Novella - weaker effort of theirs, but still pretty good

Jacqueline DuPre & Stephen Bishop - Bethoven Cello Sonatas
Angel sound ruins nice performance

Mulligan Meets Monk - original pressing - SWEET!

This Mortal Coil - Intriguing 80s record w/guest spots by members of Dead Can Dance & Cocteau Twins. Not too many ~rock bands featuring viola and cello as main instruments. Dark, trancy, intoxicating

Ravel - La Valse/Bolero/rapsodie Espangnole - Osawa/BSO

Peter Gabriel - (Melt) - a classic, belongs in every rock collection

Ryan Adams - Rock 'n Roll - This guy has so many good songs that even his weak albums(i.e this one!)beat many bests of other contemporaries. Gets stuck in your head all day long...

Happy everything,
Spencer

Spencer, I was thinking of playing part of this recording on the 15th for folks. It is a neat piece with really interesting counterplay among the instruments, and with lots of sly humor.

Rushton, think I'd like to hear the "Age of Gold" sometime. It sure is advertised a bunch lately.
