mahgister,
Thanks for the Kenny Wheeler reference!
The Widow in The Window is great!
Looking forward to hearing the rest of the album tonight.
Thanks...

If you like trumpet like me try also  Paolo Fresu : "songlines" album and "night and blue"....It is more traditional but nevermind very good....
Mahgister,
Another good album.
I didn't know I liked trumpet so much.
Thanks again!
You are so passionate, i cannot resist to recommend this one....

Very interesting meeting for many trumpeters, some not well known in america but :

For a real treat, listen to Paolo Fresu
in duets with Daniele Di Bonaventura
(playing bandoneon) on ECM's
"In Maggiore."
Very good album of Fresu, i concur to this recommendation...

I own 46 albums of Fresu....

No shivers up my spine but a tear to my eyes.
@sojourn98, that's probably my wife's favorite song. One of my favorites too.
1) Almost any cut from Aaron Neville's 'Warm Your Heart' OK, "Feels Like Rain'. 
2) Jewel channeling Janis Joplin while singing 'Have a Little Faith in Me' from the Phenomenon movie soundtrack. It sneaks up on you, then wham, It's Janis with BB&THC.
3) Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks "Where's The Money" Live at the Troubadour. Pick a cut.
4) Stevie Wonder sub-bass synth line on "I Believe When I fall in Love ..."  from the Talking Book album. Most speakers can't even make those notes, let alone capture the pitch definition and texture that's there on vinyl.

And finally,

5) Paul Galbraith 'Bach Sonatas and Partitas (arr. for guitar)' Galbraith had to conceive of, design, build, and master a custom 8-string, 2-body guitar (think guitar with subwoofer under the chair, connected by a steel rod. Seriously) so these otherwise unplayable-on-guitar pieces could be played. Next, he had to transcribe and arrange these pieces for this instrument. And then, learn to play them flawlessly for this recording. Any one of those would be noteworthy, To do all of them is truly an Olympian feat. Did I mention that it's a 2-hour double album? As a guitarist, and guitar tinkerer, as well as audiophile, hands down my favorite classical guitar album. 


The cd- A Little light music ( All acoustic and all live) by Jethro Tull extremely well engineered.

The cut- Bouree’
Elton John - love lies bleeding
Saint Preux - concerto for one voice

more to come 😄🇦🇺
Michael Jackson, HIStory "Billy Jean" 

Still so very punchy! So much so, it's hard to imagine getting it like that on an LP - incredibly punchy.
All due to compression?!? 🤔

I don't know what you mean by shivers.... But Leonard Cohen "Opus Collection" definitely sends shivers down my spine. And Morphine "Cure for Pain".... Both of these recordings.
Focus - Sylvia. Akkerman playing beautiful guitar. And some nice joddling! Followed by the likewise beautiful Focus III. Focus 3 
Santana Santana 45 rpm mofi
A Tchaikovsky Spectacular Previn mofi
Charlie Byrd Crystal Clear d2d side 1
With all the above advice, I believe I'm going to find as many songs as I can on Tidal and make me another playlist.  Should be a hoot!

Panzrwagn:  I didn't think anyone but me listened to Dan Hicks!
  3) Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks "Where's The Money" Live at the Troubadour. Pick a cut.
Spine tingling is "I Scare Myself" off the Striking it Rich album.  Someone recommended on A-Gon years ago to get the quad LP.  I found a very clean copy on Ebay and it sounds close to an UHQR vinyl copy.

«If too much women send shivers all along your spine, you are not in love you are Casanova»- Groucho Marx


Chet Baker, Bach and Scriabin are those who sent me shivers in ALL their works at ALL time....

I loved then 3 times in my life, but i like today many others composers or musicians and in  too numerous number to wrote about here....

@mahgister why do you invent these quotes, and then fictionally attribute them to others? Are you afraid to tell us what you think?
Rod Stewart- "What Do You Want Me To Do".
Not so much in sonic quality but the message in the song.

@mahgister why do you invent these quotes, and then fictionally attribute them to others? Are you afraid to tell us what you think?
What do you think? do you really think that i am afraid to make a joke or a serious remark without my other alias?

If so, your insight is not what i tought it was....Think again....

Sorry.....

😊

Some clues : sometimes it is better to stay respectful and allude to something but staying cool or funny for all to read .....It is called "humor"....Sometimes i lend my joke to a more richer than me to help me .... Sometimes the quote of my dear Groucho add something light to my observation.... Sometimes it is to no avail, only my obsessive habit to steal his persona....

My best to you....

... do you really think that i am afraid to make a joke or a serious remark without my other alias ...
I suspect that might be the case. I simply don't see any humor in inventing a quote and then fictionally attributing it to another, especially when the same "gag" is repeated over and over and over again. Apparently that amuses you. No matter, we are both OT here.

I will not excuse myself repeating what i just said in my last post that you seems to not understand or do not wanted to understand...

But if you read all my posts, there are not always "funny" perhaps and i apologize, however the content of my quote is almost never the same, funny or not....

@aewarren Who is "John Coletrain"? He was a famous typo who played the saxamphone. Bebop a rooney.

He's often confused with John Coletrain who drove a white Jaguar E type and maybe is notable for a few other things.. Go ask Alice, I think she'll know.

I don't know about you guys, but the sheer number of misspellings on this website's posts is pretty shocking.  I mean, owing to the amount of cash it takes to indulge in this hobby, this has to be a pretty educated, highfalutin' crowd.  Then again, maybe it's just how old we all are.  That's the ticket!   Aged fingers coupled with today's computers' miserable keyboard ergonomics (my phone, of course, is considerably worse).  Add a slew of brain-dead spell-check programs and we're on our way!
Add to that observation on bad computer habit that we are not all first english speakers...

For that i apologize for sure....

My best to you....

You are very kind .... But i am nowhere near perfect but i agree with you that someone saying "for only peanuts" in an audio thread must be   listened to and his saying verified by some....

1812 recorded with Digital canons
Recording of October 1979: The Telarc 1812 Overture | Stereophile.com

Never know if the woofer cones a gonna jump right out when the canons fire.
You can get it on vinyl - then you have to wonder if the cartridge will jump off the record when the cannons fire.

One of the best 1812’s out there.

Eva Cassidy songbird and Live at Blues Alley albums.

Marilyn Scott's version of Here's to Life off the Nightcap album.  possibly the best version of Here's to Life I've heard.  the musical arrangements are outstanding.

Eva Cassidy's Autumn Leaves from Songbird or Live at Blues Alley still brings tears.
