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

 

Analog Productions 45  -- these Atlantic 45 rpm reissues by AP are outstanding.

Songs:Ohia

"Love Work"

The Lioness Sessions

Secretly Canadian/Box Set

great SQ, as is most Secretly Canadian.

Neil Diamond-Moods Side 1 SQ*

Martha Davis-Policy Side 2

Makoto Ozone-After Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Cinderella-Long Cold Winter Side 1

Miklos Rozsa-Spellbound(Film Scores) Side A SQ Audiophile

Rose Hardaway-It’s Time For Rose Hardaway Side 2 SQ*

John Lennon-Imagine Side 1

The Jack Sheldon Quintet-Hollywood Heroes(CJ 339) Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Spellbound gets the SQ win over Jack Sheldon due to the dynamic quality of the recording.

Finally found a replacement for my Denon DP-47f that was up to my picky standards. It came with a Denon DL-80 moving coil cartridge. After listening to records for sixty or so years always with MM cartridges this really opened my eyes. I'm sold. I know, I know, not exactly the high end of MC's, but wow. The first 3 played; The Beatles 'Revolver' (Capitol ST 2576), original black colorband label from 1966. My favorite Beatles' album and yikes, like I'd never heard it before. Next was the original Columbia 'Wish You Were Here' (PC 33453 with the dark blue shrink still in place) from 1975 by Pink Floyd. Really yikes again. Thirdly, Simon and Garfunkel original Columbia (CS 9269) 'Sounds Of Silence' two white eyes from 1966. It was as if I'd never heard these LPs before now. Unbelievable experience. Now that I've moved my Thorens 402 (sort of semi-automatic) turntable out to the living room, I'll have many more new comments for "What's on your turntable tonight".

Pink Floyd "The Wall"

2016/Sony Music

from memory, my pp copy is more open....this copy is compressed

@slaw...I have the CBS/SONY Japan Pro Use copy and it's the absolute best I've ever heard and I have a US & UK 1st pressing.  Wonderful album.

Very nice @mofimadness !

I use to lust after that copy back in the day when I never thought I’d spend $100 on an album. The pressing on deck now has some pretty good punch if you turn it up much louder that usual. Not able to enjoy it at all at my normal listening volume. From memory, I could crank my pp/domestic, no problem.

.... it’s snowing here. Love listening when that’s happened. Nature’s acoustic blanket.

We've had a bunch of snow and REALLY cold weather here also.  Totally agree...I love my stereo even more during these events!
