For me its the first or very early LP's of: Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South" Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer" and, Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
@big_greg, Yeah, Becca Stevens and the other players add a lot. More of a group effort really. Very cool how he took those old cassette recordings and brought them forward. And that Woodstock - really moving.
Someone mentioned this album on an AgoN thread and I checked it out via streaming. Liked it and bought the double-LP. Was really looking forward to it. Arrived last evening, but just got a chance to sit down and take a listen this morning.
Maybe for the first time ever, I've got an album that has TOO MUCH bass emphasis. I like the music quite a bit. It's a piano led jazz quartet. However, the bass guitar and bass drum is over-emphasized IMHO.
Anyone else got this record? What are your thoughts.
@mammothguy54 - Joel, Do you have the 2016 Jeff Beck Album - "Loud Hailer"? Curious what you might think of it. If you don't have it, give it a stream before spending money on the vinyl. I like it quite a bit, but it's not your typical Jeff Beck album. He's pretty much providing guitar accompaniment to the singer - Rosie Bones. And, it's definitely a political album, so that might turn some folks off, or not. The 3 slow ones - "Scared for the Children", "Shame" and "Shrine" steal the show IMHO.
Thank you everyone for your kind thoughts & words IRT my wife. She was released from the hospital yesterday & is now at a rehab center working to get her motor skills back.
Spirit, Thank you for the info on the CAN release. I was not aware of that.
Noromance, Slaw & I are continuing to work on improving the phono cable. Still planning on its release in March. Thanks for the interest
@reubent - Tom, no I do not have that particular Jeff Beck album. I'll check it out. Always looking to add to my collection from those who I admire. And of course, seeking to discover new music as well.
It was slaw who I got the idea from to get Barrabas. And I sure am glad that I did, it's a great album.
Got in my Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" 45rpm this week. I now have both the 33 & 45 that were remastered and pressed at Pallas. My luck, there"ll be a one - step version out soon.
Spirit, She unfortunately isn't home yet. She is at a rehab center & they are helping her regain her motor skills. Do hope to have her home soon though.
Sir Colin Davis conducts Sibelius - The Seven Symphonies. Boston Symphony Orchestra. 5 LP box set. Philips Italian pressing. Unknown release date, but per label, probably late 70’s.
Not sure how many I’ll go through this evening, start with #1 and see what happens....
