Whats on your turntable tonight?

elvis costello and allen toussaint "the river in reverse"

Tonight it was The Beatles, "Abbey Road" to warm up the system. Followed by Carly Simon, "No Secrets", then Melissa Manchester "Greatest Hits", followed by Suzanne Vega, "Solitude Standing" and Joni Mitchell, "Hejira". Ended with Steely Dan, "Aja".

Excellent wine, excellent cheese, excellent fruit, excellent music.

Kenny Drew, "Undercurrent" - Blue Note, ST 84059 -45 (Music Matters 45 rpm reissue) - Mmmmm, Outstanding!

Vaughan Williams, "Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis" - Marriner/ASMF, Argo ZRG 696 - a superb performance with my preferred performance of "A Lark Ascending"
on the flip side.

Makes three of us then... Had a couple for friends over and one brought the Vaughan Williams on CD not realizing that the system here was set up for vinyl only.
