Whats on your turntable tonight?

Eric Johnson's "Tones" album I bought when it came out.

Cello, agree.... those music are always legendary :)
For tonigh:
Shotakovich Symphony 5/Leonard Bernstein/NewYork/CBS
Shostakovich Quartet No. 8/Borodin Quartet/London
Prokofieff: Lieutenant Kije/Reiner/Chesky
Tchaikovsky: Symphony No.4/Mravinsky/Leningrad Philharmonic/Deutsche Gramaphone

and after all these.. let's do some jazz for the night!

Linkoping: Love the music you've been playing!

Tonight we've been playing jazz:

Armstrong & Ellington: Recording Together for the First Time, Roulette SR52074 (Classic Records reissue)

Armstrong & Ellington: The Great Reunion, Roulette SR 52103 (Classic Records reissue)

Cannonball Adderley, with Bill Evans: Know What I Mean?, Riverside 9433 (45 rpm Analogue Productions reissue)

Coltrane: Ballads, Impulse AS 32 (Speakers Corner reissue)
.

Rushton, got both of those Arm&Ell recordings and they are truly energizing. Shows you just how good recording, equipment, technique, musicianship was. Makes one wonder what has happened since then. I guess one could also include Classic's dedication to restoration of music history.

Tonight it's Supertramp Paris. I found this original copy for $5.95 today at my favorite used store. Cleaned it up and it's a trip back 25 years. I'm convinced there was nothing wrong with tape and vinyl. It wasn't broke, so why did they "fix" it?
