Whats on your turntable tonight?

Dukes of Dixieland on 1959 Audio Fidelity vinyl. Nice!

Interesting technical specs regarding the recording on the album cover. Hi Fi was a big deal back then and some labels really made an all out assault on sound quality and people took notice.

Those were the days......

Holst, The Planets Mobile Fidelity

Cat Stevens "Teaser and the Firecat"

Al Stewart "Year of the cat"

Dave Brubeck "Impressions of Eurasia"

Joni Mitchell "Song to a Seagull","Blue", "Ladies of the Canyon", "Clouds"
