Whats on your turntable tonight?

Talking Heads - "Little Creatures"

"The Baroque Sound of the Trumpet"- John Wilbraham & Leslie Pearson

Just organ and trumpet playing together and recorded well with a lot of dynamic range

"A Baroque Trumpet Recital" on the Nonesuch label.

Jefferson Starship "Gold"

Reliving the 70's 

E Power Biggs - "Heroic Music for Organ, Brass & Percussion"

My dad really liked organ and brass. This is yet another album of his left unplayed since the mid 1980's. Thanks dad for passing on your eclectic taste in music.

E. Power Biggs "Music for Organ and Brass - Canzonas of Gabrieli and Frescobaldi"

Jimmy Dorsey and his Orchestra "1939-1940"
Artie Shaw "On the Air"

Albums I grew up with playing on my fathers turntable through a wondrously warm tube receiver console and speakers that sold with it. By no means audiophile recordings but very definitely bring back memories.

Andre Previn and His Pals "Pal Joey"

Julie London "Julie is her name"
De De Pierce and his New Orleans Stompers

Both from parents collection.  Unplayed for decades. Cleaned up very nicely with a wet bath clean and vacuum. 

Nina Simone "Nina at Town Hall"
Artie Shaw "Swings Show Tunes

Another two from my parents collection.  Heard these many times when growing up. Good times.

New Orleans’ Sweet Emma and Her Preservation Hall Jazz Band from a 1964 concert recording. This album signed by multiple band members when we attended a 1969 concert.

Jimmie Rodgers “Whistle Train Blues” 

The Dave Brubeck Quartet “Newport 1958”

Nina Simone “Little Girl Blue”

Both these albums are from my parents collection and bought in the late 1950’s.  Unplayed since at least 1989. I just put together my record cleaning setup and these are the first experimental cleanings to try out.

Carbon Based Lifeforms “Twentythree” and “Irdial”

Streaming FLAC from my NAS while we are both on the sofa reading our books.

Joe Jackson “Mike’s Murder”
Mic Jagger “She’s the Boss”

Happy Friday to all.

Jefferson Starship “Gold”
