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.
Also
Diana Krall - Live in Paris - ORG 45 rpm - WOW - great recording and performance - Original mastering by Doug Sax, engineering by Al Schmidt, Bernie Grandma did vinyl mastering for 45 rpm - she got the best of the best on this.
Eric Clapton - Nothing But the Blues - LIveNov 1994 at the Fillmore, SF. Great performance and some excellent solos by EC.
Pat Metheny - Side Eye NYC - VG live performance post Lyle Mays.
Miles Davis - My Funny Valentine in Concert - MoFi. Miles - love him.
BBM - Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker, Gary Moore - another WOW. I got this mostly for GM - I think he is very underrated.

@oldsounguy "Chris Botti Live, Wonderful songs and one of the best, if not the best sounding trumpet recordings out there. Silk…."
Truly great performances. I liked the Blu-ray with its beautiful visuals. My favorite was Look of Love with Burt Bacharach on the piano.

Steve, I have a 1974 record club pressing of that album. I didn't get a chance to compare them back to back but the Japan pressing sounds really good. One of the warmest Japanese imports that I've heard and in NM condition.

My sister and brother-in-law moved into my house 10 days ago. Moving back to the mainland, from Hawaii. My house is a transitional landing pad for them for about 2 months. It's been hectic, not much vinyl spinning this last week. Today was a relaxing day of a few albums (finally!).
