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
Allman Brothers Band "Fillmore East" (Capricorn SD2 802) Classic Records 200g reissue
Count Basie/Orchestra "88 Basie Street" (Pablo 2310-901) Analogue Productions 45 rpm reissue
Roger Waters "The Pros And Cons Of Hitch Hiking" (Columbia 39290)
Mozart "Symphony No. 38 In D Major "Prague"" Maag/LSO (London Stereo Treasury Series STS 15087)
I need a jumpstart - tonight it's going to be UZEB "Live At Bracknell", probably followed by either Manteca "No Heros" or Chick Corea "Light Years". Then we'll see how long I can go without nodding off. Sadly, 10 years ago, before I could afford any of this, I would have been able to listen all night. Nowadays, after about 10:30pm, ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ....
Nothing! My LP-12 is in the shop getting a new arm. So I am spinning CDs that I have not in at least a decade. That is my rule. And I am throwing away more than a third of them. And I am making a smaller pile of those I can get on LP now, or even SACD and DVD. And the smallest pile is what has not been reissued, and is my used LP hunt list. Most of the rest is stuff never issued on LP.
Just picked up two new LPs at my favorite record shop, Best of Sam Cooke and Hendrix Electric Lady Land...sealed...for $5 eaach.
Keith Jarrett - Solo Concerts (Bremen Lausanne)
Paul Simon - Graceland
The Band - Rock of Ages
Shins - Chutes Too Narrow
Rickie Lee Jones - The Magazine
Cannonball Adderley w/Bill Evans - Know What I Mean?
La Tarentule - Atrium Musicae de Madrid
Holly Cole - Don't Smoke in Bed
