@spiritofradio 100% I liked it so much bought a copy for a friend's bday gift, as it's not well known amongst those with smaller jazz libraries. |
John Cafferty And The Beaver Brown Band-Tough All Over Side 1 Mendelssohn-Symphony No.4 Side 1(DG 2530 416) Side 1 Rosemary Clooney-Rosie Sings Bing(CJ-60 Barcode) Side 2 Renaissance-Live At Carnegie Hall Side 2/B Carpenters-Passage Side 2 SQ Audiophile The Who-Who Are You Side 2 Pete Townshend-White City Side 1 The LA 4-ST(CJ-18) Side 1 SQ Audiophile Everything sounded very good tonight with several near Audiophile misses. Unfortunatley the great "Who Are You" had the weakest SQ. Both Annie and Karen were angelic with great songs. Yes, the LA 4 provided a breathtaking flute solo!

@slaw probably still three weeks out. He’s very busy! I’m casually shopping for a cart for the new arm. Jeff said the Nag would be fine, but suggested a few if I wanted to try something different. |
How long to the AudioMods arm arrives @j_husker ?
Lucinda Williams "Down Where The Spirit Meets the Bone" streaming, but the vinyl feeds the soul..... |
Tonight I listened to a classical masterpiece, "Edmond de Luca’s Conquerors of the ages" London Philharmonic; Linz Reinhard, conductor; Circa 1959. My favorite go to listening Lp. not only in terms of listening enjoyment but when it comes too high and low end sound tracks, some of the highest...and lowest sound passages I have ever heard on a recording. Since 20-20K Hz is for all terms considered to be the audible end posts for us humans, there are on particular tracks that I estimate come in at 30-18K Hz. The original album comes with a playbill that explains the composers intention tor each recording. A truly brilliant piece of work. |
Emitt Rhodes - Mirror Since we have been talking about Emitt I thought to pull this one from my collection. I bought this as a Senior in high school. Still in excellent condition. Gregg Allman - Laid Back Analogue Productions reissue. Big difference in SQ after playing Emitt. Joan Armatrading - S/T I just love Joan... |
@jpan was meaning to post that I have the Roy Hargrove and Mulgrew Miller, In Harmony that you posted about the other day. It’s a treasure isn’t it. Still a few sealed copies around the stores I’ve noticed so other members can benefit. |
@mammothguy54: I also recorded with Emitt, in his studio in Hawthorne. He still has the Gibson ES335 pictured on the back cover of the album and the pump organ he’s sitting at on the inside of the gatefold! He had me record the song he was producing three times in a row, playing to a click track. He recorded each take on a separate Alesis 8-track, then made a master mix on a fourth Alesis from the three takes, punching between them for different sections. Only time I’ve been recorded that way. Being that he was recording on Alesis digital recorders, the resulting sq was not of audiophile caliber. The drums sounded good (60’s Ludwigs, with a contemporary Ludwig chrome-over-brass snare drum), but my Paiste 602 cymbals---which sound great---had that "splashy" digital sound. Hey, another Manfred Mann album well worth looking for is Chapter Three on Vertigo Records. By the time of this album drummer Mike Hugg had moved to piano, and the group had evolved into a mildly-fusionistic Jazz/Rock style combo. Great recorded sound quality, something the Vertigo's are known for. |
+1 @mammothguy54 "Watch" is my favorite Manfred Mann recording. "California" is perfection!!! |
Today I listened to... Manfred Mann - Watch This album has a better SQ than my copy of Roaring Silence. Both are excellent music. Frank Zappa - Over-Nite Sensation I bought this new in 1973 and it is still in perfect condition. Great music and a great recording. Love it! Ben Webster meets Oscar Petersson Analogue Productions 45rpm reissue Verve Records. It's really amazing the sonics they accomplished in the recording studio, way back in the early 60s. |
I too have the Emitt Rhodes album, having purchased it when it first released. I don't know anyone who even heard of him other than from this group of music lovers. Very cool that bdp24 played with Emitt, live on stage. Good for you! Manfred Mann - The Roaring Silence I sure wish it was done in audiophile SQ. But still, very good, nonetheless. Procol Harum - Broken Barricades I just love this album. |
@bdp24 I agree on your perfect album comment, there isn’t a bad song on it. I also agree with your comparison of him to McCartney, especially regarding this recording. Very cool you performed with him, what an experience! |
