I can do that as well, as my office is in my home….but….busy is busy no matter where I am. As we had a few days of pretty hot weather, I let the yard work get a little out of control, so today was playing catch-up.

@bkeske you're doing it all wrong. You've got to put that album on then go listen from the bathroom down the hall; extra reverb masks the crappiness. Then go back to the sweet spot and play
😁👍🏼

@sbank
Wish that Clapton Rainbow Concert was better recorded. Some great playing, but the overall recording sucks. Still nice to have, as it was his first return to the stage after getting off heroin at the time. As I understand, it was Pete that pushed him to do that show.

Holy smokes, what a pain the rear. Just upgraded my iPhone via ATT and a total mess online. Had to call to ‘complete’ the order, which I had already done online, and after an hour, or so, with a ‘customer service’ rep, finally got it done. Not sure why I stay with ATT.
I feel like I need a head banging heavy metal experience right now, but will calm and settle with this…

😉👍🏼 Nice, that’s the way to do it. I have a few opera box sets I need a weekend like that to dedicate the spinning of the complete opera to.
Lousy rainy weekend, so I listened to all 8 sides of Handel's Messiah. - in one sitting lol. It's an old pressing I got from a friend - I have 2 other box sets that I have not listened to. This was on Composer's Concept Series. The London Philharmonic Choir with the London Orch. Walter Susskind conductor. Recorded in London at St. Mary Magdalene in Paddington 1959. Included was a booklet that talked about Handel, the conductor, the orchestra, and, believe it or not, the engineers and the microphones they used. Great performance, and I can't believe I actually listened to this. Will give it another listen. LOVED it.
