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
e, given the alignment of so much of our musical tastes, another LP in the Klimo Open Window series may also appeal to you, and it is still available. This is a collection of Baroque music for the cornett, called "Il Cornetto, Music for Baroque Cornett" on OW 004. The capture of the timbre of the instruments is superb; a record to be savored for it's delicacy and for the intricacies of the instrumental harmonics. Slipknot1 and I have mentioned this record several times in the past and Elusive Disc still has a few copies in inventory:

testing the new wires. Just built a newer tonearm cable using mil-spec silver solid 30gauge wire.Also rewired the SUT with the same wire. The system just took a huge leap upwards in quality.Wire was given to me by Mike Morrow of Morrow Audio.
