Zaikesman, always nice to see a little more classical music listed, especially something as nice as Britten's Symphony for Cello and Orchestra!!

Today was an afternoon of music with friends in the local Richmond audio group. Vinyl lovers gathered and the focus was music, not gear! We ran the gamut from Monk & Coltrane Live at Carnegie Hall to Mendelsshon's Symphony No. 3 (Maag/LSO), to Suzanne Vega, to Louis Armstrong, to The Doors, to Monteverdi's "Vespro della Beata Vergine" with Gardiner. A great afternoon.

I second the classical music statement Rush.

I spent most of today replacing the volume pot in my new Dynaco Pas 2. I am pretty good with a soldering iron, but only know enough to be dangerous when it comes to reading schematics. I did figure it out and am now listening.

so far:

Rimsky Korsakov "Scheherazade" Mehta/LA Phil London/Decca
This is the best recording of this chestnut that I know of.

Durafle "Requiem" Kings College Cambridge/Ledger EMI
For anyone that doesn't know this piece;if you like Faure you will love this piece.Of course Kings College is my first choice for performance.

Sphere: "Flight Path" Elektra Musician
These guys used to play with Thelonius Monk and can really play. This is one of the best sounding discs that I own.Very low sound floor, great bass,explosive saxophone,and silky brush strokes by the drummer.A must have. We call this one "the truth" in our audio club.

cheers

Oh yeah Rush 'n' E, every once in a blue -- uh, better make that purple -- moon, I'm you're classical man! (Well, if not exactly classical then early or modern at least. But I do promise, in that setting anyway, not to pretend to know what the hell I'm talking about, as I am on occasion otherwise wont to do. Jes' the facts ma'am...)

Do you listen to Sphere: "Flight Path" on CD or LP? I just ordered the CD after reading your post and listening a bit on Amazon.
