and,
Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO

@reubent 

I have it on cd. It is definitely one of my desert island disks and I've probably listened to it the most out of my (many) jazz albums 

Let me know what you think after listening to it 

Cheers

Canned Heat - Boogie with Canned Heat. Liberty 1968

Hey Brian… Great LP, a lot to like. My copy is high mileage, happy to see somebody else playing it too. Love the music (hippie genre, haha?), song titles (Fried Hockey Boogie!), band members’ nicknames. Their music was a major omission from the Easy Rider soundtrack IMO, On The Road Again shoulda been there.

I have that RR lp. I don't remember being a big fan of it. Will revisit it when I get back to listening.

@sbank  - Hey Spencer, been streaming Robbie Robertson - "How to Become Clairvoyant" and like it pretty well on first listen. Now have a Mint/Sealed copy coming via a Discogs purchase.

Thanks for the recommendation...

@dredison 

Listening to New York Stories Vol 1 right now.

Do you have that on vinyl? I don't see a vinyl release on Discogs. I also checked to see if it was on Spotify, but couldn't find it. I do see it on YouTube. Guess I'll stream it through YouTube, then buy it on CD if I love it.

Thanks for the recommendation...

 

David Bromberg – My Own House (Fantasy 1978)

Great sparse acoustic fiddle and guitar playing. Clear recording. Solid.

Maria McKee - High Dive (save your money and stream it if you're a fan)

 

Sara Watkins – Under The Pepper Tree (New West 2021)

This is a gem. Lullabies and kid’s songs. Excellent recording and silent vinyl. Recommended.

EDIT: no sooner than I posted this, some vinyl whosh noise appeared on last two tracks!

The Roches - Keep On Doing   

the worst record including Fripp, Bruford and Levin. I could have almost bought something at Dollar Tree with that $0.99!

Lou Rawls-All Things in Time Side 1 SQ Audiophile

Judas Priest-Unleased In The East Side 2

Van Morrison & The Chieftains-Irish Heartbeat Side B SQ Audiophile

Gary Morris-Plain Brown Wrapper Side 1 SQ Audiophile

Bryd/Kessel/Ellis-Great Guitars At The Winery(CJ-131) Side 1

Sea Level-Ball Room Side 2 SQ Audiophile

The Bernie Leadon/Michael Georgiades Band-Natural Progressions Side 2 SQ*

Frank Sinatra-Come Fly With Me(Capitol SW 920) Side 1

All recordings were above average regarding SQ. Unexpectedly Concord Jazz was the weakest recording maybe due to the live recording. *Leadon/Georgiades would have the SQ crown but the vocals were to recessed. The SQ champ tonight goes to Lou Rawls. Everything was in balance and the vocal/instrument separation was excellent.

 

Miles Davis-On The Corner 2016 Mofi

Dexter Gordon-Doin' Allright 2009 Music Matters 45rpm

 

@bdp24 Yes, I like that Winchester album. Can you recommend any other album from him?

@sbank, It's great to see early Fleetwood Mac members on that list

 

Time Machines / ST

Listening to New York Stories Vol 1 right now. Danny Gatton on guitar is just killing it! My favourite recording featuring him ever, which is saying a lot considering his catalogue. Of course it doesn't hurt that he shares the stage with heavyweights like Bobby Watson, Charles Fambrough and others 

It's a shame there was never a Vol 2

The Butterfield Blues Band - Sometimes I Just Feel Like Smilin'. Elektra 1971

Glen Hansard - "Drive All Night"

Again! Thanks to @astro58go for recommending this back in 2016.

@sbank 

I hope you also have Robbie Robertson – How To Become Clairvoyant.

I do not have it, but it's now on my list...

Thanks!

Various – History Of British Blues Volume One (Sire 1973)

A hall of fame compilation of sorts

@reubent 

I hope you also have Robbie Robertson – How To Become Clairvoyant. Every song is really good. Similar Lanois-ish  vibe and "and features performances from
Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, Tom Morello, Robert Randolph & Trent Reznor"
