Whats on your turntable tonight?

Bdgregory, That first America album is nice indeed. I have a white label promo copy of it, yet I find the stock first press copy to be outstanding. When that record came out in 1972 it influenced many great musicians such as Crosby, Stills, & Nash and the Eagles amongst others. The strange chord progressions, texture, and detail that were captured in America's music made it one of the most innovative and nicest sounding records of the time. A great pick!
Happy Listening!

Tonight: polyurethane (fifth coat)--I've been finishing my newly-purchased Teres 160 over the last week. I think five coats is about all I can take before assembling the table tomorrow so I can play some records! I haven't even used my Thorens 125/II in the last couple of days, though will have to give it a goodbye spin or two tomorrow.

Warming the system up this morning preparing to check out some amp stands, here's what's been playing:

Buxtehude, Organ Works Vol. 1 with Michael Chapius, Telefunken 6.42001

Bill Evans, Portrait in Jazz, Riverside 1162, Analogue Productions 45 rpm reissue - outstanding!

Coleman Hawkins and his Confreres, Verve MG VS-6110, Speakers Corner reissue - outstanding!

British Band Classics, Vol 2, Fennell/Eastman Wind Ensemble, Mercury SR 90197, Speakers Corner reissue - this is the first time I've heard this and it fully merits all the hype I've read over the years!

Now, if Ann is ready we can get down to some SERIOUS comparative listening...
.

Merry Christmas to all my vinyl listening friends out there!
Cheers to all of you!

tonight it's "Go" - Stomu Yamashta Steve Winwood, Michael Shrieve, Al DiMeola. This has always been one of my favorite albums. I have a new vinyl rig and am rediscovering some of my old Lp's. Last night it was King Crimson "Lark's Tongues in Aspic"

Man, this is great!
