Whats on your turntable tonight?


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
slipknot1
right now...

Fiest "Pleasure"

later...

Earth Wind & Fire "Gratitude" ...actually a gifted lp that I'm putting through a rigorous cleaning. Will be interesting, for sure!
The E W & F improved considerably!

I even flattened it...which helped out considerably.

What a difference some (attention) makes!
Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio - "Close But No Cigar"

Coleman Records - Numbered, Limited Edition on beautiful translucent Coke Bottle Green vinyl. Got an early copy from the guys at my local record store - Plaid Room Records, who also happen to own/run the record label - Colemine Records.......

Funky Organ Soul Jazz........
The Rainmakers - "The Good News and the Bad News"

I've had the CD since it was released in 1990. Finally picked up a copy on vinyl and I'm really enjoying it....

Great Midwestern Americana Rock and Roll (my description).........
Nils Lofgren - "Acoustic Live" - Analogue Productions - A great sounding record......
ELO  "Eldorado"

Johnny Cash "Unchained" from the American Recordings box...cannot get enough of it! Everyone should own this box set.
Humble Pie/eat It, Bob Dylan/Time Out Of Mind, Boz Scaggs/Come On Home and James Brown/Live At The Apollo
J Geils Band "Blow Your Face Out" ....just put it through a looong, sloooow deeep US clean. Won’t win any awards for sonics but is nice and quiet. The memories?....Ahhhh!

I think the last time I heard it was on an 8 track in my customized van in my teen years.
Started out with sides a & b of Melody Gardots Live In Europe then Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassas Black Coffee album then The New York Dolls Live From Royal Festival Hall 2004 and finished up with Isaac Hayes Black Moses. Damn I was all over the place.
Good one @tooblue. My favorite album of Randy's, then his debut. He was great until he went Rock, and hired Toto to be his band. Ugh.
@bdp24, agree with your comment and would follow up with Little Criminals third.
J. Geils Band- remastered version, "Blow Your Face Out".

P.S I just noticed that Slaw just played this album too. The remastered CD  is much better than the original.

The Notting Hillbillies  "missing... presumed having a good time"

Mom's Apple Pie "S/T"

(lps)
Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young - "American Dream"

I'm loving it! I probably haven't listened to this record in 20 years. I'm listening and remembering why I bought it in the first place, long ago..........
Had to clean and listen to "Moonflower" since it was talked about in another thread.

up next...

Santana "Supernatural"
Buddy & Julie Miller  "Written in Chalk"..this will make @bdp24 happy...
Just broke the shrink wrap on my brand new Joan Osborne "Songs of Bob Dylan". Here's hoping it will be up to her past standards!


Regarding "Written in Chalk"...was very turned on by Julie’s introduction of "Wild Thing"!.......
Had to flatten the Joan lp.....

up now,

The Watson Twins "Talking to You, Talking to Me".

I remember upon first hearing this lp (from 2010), I was unimpressed. No longer. You may remember them from their collaborations with Jenny Lewis. If you love female vocals, good song writing, great sonics...it's well worth checking out!


Climax Blues Band - "Gold Plated" 

From my high school years. Still love it........
Warren Zevon/Trouble at Dancing School, Ozark Moutain Daredevills/Car Over The Lake Album, Joe Jackson/Live In New York, Summer In The City, Waylon Jennings/Dreaming My Dreams.
@tooblue - YES it is! Really enjoyed "Gold Plated" tonight. Haven'y listened to it in a year or so.

Based on your post, tomorrow night - "Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School". Another great one, released just after my high school years......
@reubent , thanks for getting what I was talking about, Bad Luck Streak In Dancing School is great.
i literally haven't listened to climax blues band in 30+ years, but was tweaked by the above to give 'em a listen--a few of their songs (rich man, couldn't get it right) are still insinuated in my brain, which i suppose is the sign of good music.
So, I'm listening to Warren Zevon's "Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School" (Thanks @tooblue ) and reading the credits in the liner notes. How's this list of musicians?
