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

Britten, Simple Symphony--English Music for Strings. Britten cond./English Chamber Orchestra; King Super Analog Disc (reissue of a 1968 London/Decca recording). As seems to be the case with most of the King reissues, the sound seems tilted towards the bass, which works well on this recording, particularly when the double basses strum in the second movement. I'm breaking in a new system (moved to a place with a much smaller room), and this record sounds great on the new setup.

Rush, I'm now in VA about 50 miles from you, will have to arrange a visit at some point soon.
Genesis - Wind & Wuthering...hadn't listened to this in a long time. What beautiful music. Tony Banks' "Afterglow" - really something special.
Ghosthouse, I'm a huge Genesis fan. I own every lp up to Duke and love every one of them. My personal favorite is the lamb. In the Cage, Back in NYC, and especially Lilywhite Lilith.
Hey Don- They were a great band. After Duke is about where I parted company. Am on a Genesis jag the last few days. Listened to Three Sides Live earlier today (actually 4 sides live on the recording I own...but that's good because Paperlate and some of their later studio drivel isn't there)...and Duke after W&W. I will have to dust off my copy of Lamb. There is some good music on that one but it always seemed a bit uneven to me. I'll give a listen to your favs. For me its been TOTT, W&W, ATTWT. Foxtrot needs to be in there too. Maybe I don't really have a favorite as such.

Ciao
