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
Eddie Costa's House of Blue Lights (I can't get over how much I LOVE the first track, and then the segue into the second)
Hank Mobley (BN 1568)
John Jenkins w/ Kenny Burrell (BN 1573)
Lee Morgan's Candy (1590)
J.R. Monterose (1536)
Sonny Clark Trio (1579)
'Round Midnight Claude Williamson's Trio (Bethlehem (Columbia Japan reprint 1992) mono)
A Garland of Red - Red Garland Trio (Prestige 7064 Japan pressing)
The entire MFSL Beatles Box

I know lots of Beatle vinyl-philes don't love this set, but man, it's the best sounding Beatles vinyls I have ever heard (well, I have heard some of the red vinyl Japanese set, and it's prob better, but I have not heard all of it0.

Loving the Beatles and Football on a rainy Sunday!!
Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers - Caravan - Riverside RLP 9428 -45rpm Analogue Productions (Oh yes, just amazing. Its hard to imagine that Wayne Shorter and Freddie Hubbard were so young when they cut this record with Blakey.)

Loius Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald - Ella and Louis - Verve 4003 Speakers Corner (what joy! in this record)

Maria Callas - Callas Portrays Puccini Heroines - Angel 35195 (it's not the voice, it's the phrasing and ability to communicate the meaning. Love her or hate her, she's mesmerizing.)

Lorraine Hunt Lieberson - Neruda Songs - okay, its a CD, but the music and her voice are marvelous.
