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
Rosza, "Concerto for Violin and Orchestra" - Heifitz, Hendl/DallasSO, RCA LSC 2767-45 (Classic Records 45 rpm reissue) -- Since Russ mentioned it last night I couldn't help but pull it out tonight to enjoy again. Thanks for the reminder, Russ.

The Benjamin "Romantic Fantasy" for violin, viola and orchestra on the flip side is no slouch of a piece of music, either. But it's the Rosza that's really special.
.
Il Balletto Di Bronzo - Ys - 1972 italian Polydor near mint original, sounds AWESOME! Have a good weekend!
Gary Moore "Corridoors of power"

Rush "Moving Pictures"

Mike Rutherford "Smallcreeps day"
Mozart, "Concerto for Bassoon"-Ormandy, Philadelphia Orchestra, Bernard Garfield, Bassoon. Columbia Masterworks Mono recording.

Offenbach, "Gaite Parisienne"-Fiedler, Boston Pops RCA 45 rpm & Chesky 180g pressing. I wanted to hear how the 45 rpm pressing compared to the Chesky.

Arthur Salvatore had this to say comparing the Chesky to the RCA 33 rpm: "The Chesky has the strong points of both and then some. It is even more natural than the original and has all the desirable qualities of the Classic; enhanced immediacy, lower distortion, superior dynamics and frequency extremes etc., while still avoiding its somewhat dry and "hi-fi" sound. The Classic is cut a few dB louder and has the real original cover; in stunning high gloss color no less. I suppose you can't have everything."

I am inclined to give a very slight edge to the Classic RCA 45rpm. Although it is a tough call.
Midnight Sugar-TBM Supercut label. A swinging Japanese trio playing jazz & blues. Excellently recorded.

Are there any "high" recommendations for Dave
Brubeck's "Time Out" 45 rpm?

Thanks again
