Whats on your turntable tonight?

yesterday into this morning:

otis redding "otis blue," "in person at the whiskey a go go," and "the dock of the bay," thelonious monk "brilliant corners" and "monk's music," dirty three "horse stories" and "ocean songs," lester young and harry edison "pres and sweets," and finally schubert's "great" c major sympyony on rca shaded dog LM-1835

Tonight
Sibelius "Symphony No. 2 in D Major Op. 43" Ashkenazy/Philharmonia (London LDR 10014) Unfortunate early digital recording/pressing of a nice performance despite the fact that it was engineered by none other than Kenneth Wilkinson.
Bill Evans Trio "Moonbeams" (Riverside/Original Jazz Classics RLP-9428/OJC-434) Classic Records reissue

Played hooky again tonight and went to the the Curtis Institute's faculty concert instead: Arnold Steinhardt (first violin of the Guarneri String Quartet) and Anna Polonsky, piano, playing Beethoven, Janacek and R.Strauss. Outstanding!

Rushton, Live music... probably the single sound that beats a great turntable, agreed?! Cheers!

R_f_sayles, yep! The audio system is for the dry spells. Right now we are in the height of the classical music live performance season: orchestra concerts on Saturdays and Curtis Institute of Music recitals on weeknights whenever the students and my schedule coincide! For us, it just doesn't get any better that sitting in a wonderful chamber music venue 15' from world class performers; or sitting in the concert hall in 1st Tier Box seats at the same height as the recording mikes with 105 (+/-) of the best orchestral players in the world arrayed in front of you.
