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
Schumann, Cello Concerto - Janos Starker/Skrowaczewski/LSO, Mercury SR 90347 (Speakers Corner reissue. A wonderful recording of a great performance. Speakers Corner delivers yet again with a sonic wonder of a reissue. Don't miss it.)
.
Hank Mobley: "Soul Station" - Blue Note 4031-45 (Music Matters 45 rpm reissue) (This series of 45 rpm reissues continues to amaze. If you love jazz, and if you love vinyl, you will regret not getting these while they are available.)

Frank Sinatra: "September of My Years" - Reprise FS-1014 ("smiling Frank" label, no sonic wonder but Frank is still Frank)

Fleetwood Mac: "Fleetwood Mac"
Stevie Nicks: "Bella Donna"

"Musique Judeo-Baroque" Cohen/La Camerata de Boston - Harmonia Mundi HM 1021

James Taylor, "Sweet Baby James" - Warner Bros 274300 (Because Sound Matter reissue - another excellent mastering job by Steve Hoffman.)
.
