The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. A 4 LP set, consisting of works by Beethoven, Carter, Schumann, Mozart, Bach, Faure’, Moszkowski, Haydn, Brahms, and Saint-Saens.
A surprising purchase; recorded raw with little engineering, and a real sense of the stage and space. Nice.
Released in 1975 by The Classic Record Company for the Book-Of-The-Month Club, of all things. The vinyl is in mint condition, and it was very inexpensive. Cha-Ching.

A good day for you Dayglow! |
Had to give up on playing records for a short while as difficult to do right with one hand!
Was washing the dishes, one of the wife's wine glasses broke and sliced my right hand ring finger down to the bone.
Arghhhhh..grrrrrr.
😰😰😰 |
Thx-boxer12
My wife's favorite band as a young adult was Duran Duran so why not give a mint garage sale find a spin for her. She also became a fan of "Boom Boom Out Go The Lights" a song she had never heard before?
|
@uberwaltz - Sorry for your accident. Hopefully you recover quickly. Any stitches? |
Times Square - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Not a great compilation, but a few good ones. I bought it back in the day for one track - The Pretenders - "Talk of the Town" |
Thanks Reubent.
More annoyed than anything, I mean not even my glass!!😠😠
Just butterfly stitches, very clean cut but deep, lots of blood... Lol.
And now throbbing like a throbbing thing.

+1 Reubent! Great album
Silver Mt. Zion / This is our punk rock |
Never did I think I'd be saying this, but I bought some MOFI vinyl and the seller put some Barbara Streisand records in the box as filler. They seem to actually be in good shape, listening to "Memories". |
Elly Stone – Elly Stone (Columbia 1969)
I just had to listen to her lovely voice this morning before starting work.

@big_greg
Barbra Streisand – A Christmas Album (CBS 1967)
Superb 60s recording and amazing performance. Don't bother with the later RE.
|
Jackie DeShannon – New Image (Imperial 1967)
Wonderfully atmospheric swinging sixties album. NM/NM sounds fantastic.
|
@uberwaltz Ouch. Happened me years ago. 5 stiches. Heal well. |
Barbara Dane – Sings The Blues With 6 & 12 String Guitar (Folkways 1964)
c/w booklet. Not the greatest recording but it sounds like you're chillin' around the campfire. |
Found this album on eBay and it just struck the right chord😂😂
Hard Up Heroes.
A double album all mono of old mostly British acts on the Decca label.
SQ is quite stunning and it is dead quiet in the groove with my dedicated Rega TT with Ortofon 2M Mono Cart. |
Little Feat - Feats Don't Fail Me Know - 180g reissue, very very good |
+1 @rubent I love that NMH album |
Led Zeppelin - III - older pressing from early 70s in VG+ |
Testing my mod’ed GE VR1000 cartridge.
1965 Bobby Hackett and Glenn Miller Orchestra.
Phenomenal!!! |
Right now Ivan Moravec Chopin Nocturnes...
One of the best recorded piano sound ever in history....If not the best....
If you want to test your audio system, you must hears each note with his own shade and color hue, like by sunset the last light reflecting on a dark and luminous serene lake... If not, embed your system correctly because it is not ...
Mechanical, electrical, and acoustical embeddings are the key audio problem....
By the way it is the best interpretation ever if you have only that to listen to for decades in some jail....His playing is accurate and without any superfluous romanticism.... You will listen slowly cascading chords creating melody, not a ready made melody, like with most other pianist....A gem among rare gems...
:)

It's looking surprisingly good right now, it was a very clean cut. |
Uber, Sorry about your finger.
HOPE no muscles or tendons were severed!
Years ago I cut my index finger knuckle clean-off. Plastic surgeon had to re-attach the cartlidge and the tendons on either side. The 12 weeks with a splint and months of therapy, to regain motion, range and strength in that finger was a royal pain. Spent my first semester of college trying to write legibly, left-handed.
Since then. I've been VERY careful not to let the wrench slip when tightening down a freshly sharpened mower blade! |
