On a bleak afternoon into evening in Portland:
CSN(Y):
So Far P/P
Deja Vu P/P
Looking Forward (digital...)
The latter a pretty good record. Anybody ever buy the expensive euro issue vinyl? Is it just cut from a cd? Either way it’s probably not that good of a record....
(earlier) in the bright of morning:
John Abercrombie
Arcade OP
Focus
Moving Waves PP
Volto!
Incantare OP
Plini
Handmade Cities OP
and for lunch...
Michaela Anne
Desert Dove
(Pink!)
This is pretty much a country record but she’s got quite a nice voice.

Glad you liked the Mostly Autumn recommendation, enjoy!

I played Moving Waves Saturday I think and it blew me away with with just how fresh it sounded considering its age!

A good friend found a copy of Joe Cocker - Joe Cocker at an antique shop and picked it up on a whim. He let me borrow it and after a thorough cleaning I played it on my system. I was totally blown away by its quality and pristine condition. After some research I am fairly sure it's a 1st reissue circa 1971 first master plate. One of the best sounding pieces I have had the pleasure to enjoy. Must have played both sides 3x so far. This is definitely a HOT stamper. What a lucky guy! I would rate this as a near mint vynil, fair cover. Awesome sound and great music on both sides.

@gillatgth how nice! What are the runout # ? |
James !!!! Good to see ya back, will stream that Focus in a bit |
Don Grolnick - Hearts and Numbers Lots of Michael Brecker blowing over great chord progressions by Don. Not on this one though. The title track and closer. Just DG. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbR_nXfZvrMThere's some that've got the gift of melody. DG was one. |

last night a wonderful curiosity, Little Esther Phillips, this one I found in great shape a while ago:
https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/4316781?ev=rb
I just finished my two arm deck, rear arm Mono cartridge, side arm Stereo. LP jacket said 'Monophonic'. Played Mono. Seemed a few sounds were still separate l/r, her voice didn't sound too good. Ah, label on disc say's Stereo. I play it, expecting horrible re-processed Stereo, it was not 'right', but quite enjoyable, her voice very good, and I don't know how they separated a few instruments to get some left and some right, but they did. I checked it out, seems original Mono was issued in 1959. This was a re-issue, Stereo, inserted in the original jacket (old stock?) that had Monophonic printed on it. Another curiosity: Production of Stereo LP began 1958. Prior to that, and in the transition years, big labels had two teams, were recording separate 2 track and 1 track masters. Rudy Van Gelder, a small producer, the actual recording engineer, decided to record 2 track, produce Mono mix from that, and have the 2 track master for the future. So, did King records record Esther 2 track in 1959, and issue Mono, and use a 2 track master for the 1987 re-issue, or, a synthetic creation from a mono master? |

that distinctive smell still coming from the record pocket of the thick printed inside sleeve of the 1977 Columbia issue, you know.... records: tactile: and sometimes they even smell good. Take that Spotify....! |
@uber, yes Focus is great. I love the dynamics and contrasts on that record. Such great musicianship. |
Georgia Brown - Sings Kurt Weill (London 1962)
Man, they just do not make them like this anymore. Startling clarity. A disgrace what they've done to recording.
|
@tomic601 thanks bro! Been traveling. Nice to be back to my stereo.
Saw Caroline Spence this week. Strong voice and such a natural and good person honestly giving of herself in the performance. What a great woman. She played a few favorites. You going to be able to catch her on this tour? |
James - the concert and travel schedule is pretty full - just wrapped up a cool Film project, sometimes Grease $ is the job. But I will look at her upcoming shows, thanks for referral |
Uber those kind folk in the hill country are going to start calling you the Floridia Carpetbagger.... |

Also welcome to all the new posters - y’all playing some great stuff, interesting and new :-)
