Yes it is! Forgot how good "Eyes Of Silver" is. This is one of a few bands where its very difficult to pick a favorite album or even song.

Radiohead - A Moon Shaped Pool
|
@dayglow - I love "Eyes of Silver" and "Down in the Track". "Another Park, Another Sunday" ain't bad either. Oh, and closing with "Flying Cloud" is brilliant too..
Happy Weekend!

@reubent Thx! Will be back Sunday night.

Boz Scaggs: "Dig"
He pays more attention to sound quality on this album compared to others I've heard, and the tracks are quite diverse...a departure from the more pop oriented music he's known for.
Lately, I've been streaming it often, so tonight I got out the vinyl 2 disk set and was amazed at the increased detail I was hearing.

Went through my stack of Beatles 45’s tonight.
A lot of work with 3 minute songs on each side, but worth it!

@noromance Thanks Brian !,,, loved that….Dixieland man……

Boz Scaggs: "Dig"
The bass on Thanks To You, love that!
|
Buddy demoing the his new Canor Integrated last night & sending me pics of him installing KT88s inspired me to fire the TT. Limited session but pretty great nonetheless. Johnny Jenkins, "Ton-Ton Macoute" - always a funky treat & Bill Wilson, "Ever Changing Minstrel". Streamed JJ Grey & Mofro, "Brighter Days Live" played way too loud to close the night ; )
|
Saw that Doobie Brothers during that tour at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
|
@tgib, great album.
Something/Anything was the first album I bought to play on my first good stereo system. The Todd's music had so much detail and so many different percussion touches....it was ahead of it's time. He may have been a Runt back then, but he was indeed a Wizard.. a True Star. lol

@sbank - Hey Spencer. I'd never heard of the "Naked" remix of "Let it Be". Had to goggle it and read the Wiki page. I'll give it a shot via streaming...
Thanks, and Happy Weekend...

@reubent Yeah, watching GET BACK inspired me to play it twice recently. I like the more stripped down versions which remind me quite a bit of scenes in the show. Pretty satisfying on vinyl...I don't feel the urge to buy the new anniversary version, though plenty tout it's merits.
|
Happy Saturday ! Streaming all the music y’all played last eve…. Josie ! Bill i missed that one also….

"Heaven...I'm in heaven..." My preorder hit my mailbox on release date yesterday. The original master was digital, so this is the best they're gonna do.

@mwinkc
Yes, Todd Rundgren was a true genius of the time with the first three sides of the albums instruments and vocals performed by him solo in the studio.
Coincidently he also produced Meatloaf's Bat Out of Hell album.
|
@sbank Streaming Eva Cassidy. I must admit I did not know she passed 25 years ago. Brought a tear to the soul.
Her last performance.
|
@big_greg
Noticed you played Alchemy by Dire Straits last night. How would you rate the performance and sound quality? Alchemy and On Every Street are the Dire Straits recordings missing on cd or vinyl in my collection.
|
OK, after a return to some of my digital collection, back to some vinyl (and can’t wait to do so). Haven’t listed to this for a while, and always a favorite of mine, as it was recorded very nicely. Will go through the entire collection.
I also, finally, signed-up for a photo service, so, will be including more photos in the future.

@sbank @reubent
Let It Be Naked has all the Phil Spector overproduction stripped out. I think Paul McCartney took the lead on the Naked version. Much better IMO.
Spencer, wasn’t the rooftop concert really great? The reactions from the crowd on the street were priceless.
Nils Lofgren - Acoustic Live sides 3/4 Wow!
|
@noromance Thanks for the Doobies Video. Nice to hear they still have some chops.
|
@bkeske Nice Box. Got mine for $7 on your recommendation and you’re right about the great Sonics. I feel like I can hear the seams and varnish in the wood floors of the hall.
|
@spiritofradio
It’s a real hidden gem James. Glad you like it too, and glad I stumbled across it myself.
|
@dayglow I recommend Alchemy. I haven't listened in a while and found myself wondering why. The performances are great and sound quality is very good. I was listening on my second system and doing some other things, not giving it my full attention, but plan to play it on the main rig soon.
On Every Street is a little uneven, but far better than the two stars that Allmusic gives it.

@bkeske Streaming the Dvořák. Love the cover. Červená Lhota is a 14th century château in south Bohemia, Czech Republic. It stands at the middle of a lake on a rocky island.

@noromance
Thanks for that, as I had no clue 👍🏼
Very nice LP.

@big_greg
Thx! I appreciate your comments. When On Every Street was released(91’) the AOR station(WRIF) only played "Heavy Fuel" which I didn’t like. Thirty years have past, it is time to give the entire album a listen.
|
Regarding, "On Every Street", I understand Greg saying that it’s "a little uneven", I think he means the songs seem to have little to no common thread/feeling. Having said that, I really like the album.
