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
Listened to this afternoon:

Dvorak, "New World Symphony," Leonard Slatkin conducting the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, Telarc DG-10053.
Very slow tempi in the first two movements; worked for me but won't be to everyone's taste. Wonderful sonics -- one of Telarc's best IMO.

Beethoven, "Hammerklavier Sonata," Paul Badura-Skoda performing on an 1824 Fortepiano, Astree AS47.
An absolute treasure, musically and sonically.

Best regards,

Listening to a fresh copy of the 10,000 Maniacs - In My Tribe that I ordered a few weeks ago. It sounds really good. It is the MSFL copy. I have always liked this album on CD but had never heard it on vinyl. Glad I bought it. I think it is head and shoulders above the CD copy. Bass seems quite a bit more punchy and it is far more open sounding.
U2 - Achtung Baby

Green Day - Dookie

Talk Talk - It's My Life

Queen - A Day at the Races

The Producers - You Make the Heat
Norah Jones, 'Little Broken Hearts'...Gets better each time I listen to it. A great record.
