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

Tim, that "Out of season" must be pretty awesome.  The only ones I could find ranged from $80 to $155.

@spiritofradio  Have you heard the version of Górecki
Symphony No. 3 with Lisa Gerrard? For me, it's the best of the three.

Cheating on my TT tonight, but I just can't help myself... You guys may know that I'm a sucker for funky organ music. My buddy was over on Saturday night and whipped this one out on me. Playing some select tracks this evening via Spotify streaming:

Brian Auger's Oblivion Express Feat. Alex Ligertwood – "Live In Los Angeles"

Brian Auger and funky organ music forever!

 

@reubent 👍 I have braced 4hx3w’s full of records and they’re fine. With the 1x3’s screwed across the back and the whole thing attached to the house I think the 5x5s will be ok. Best thing would be to screw a plywood back onto them but I haven’t gone that far. 5x5 is just going to be a lot more space efficient.

 

@j_husker I’m not a fan of this smoothness you mentioned in the Analog Productions’s copy. I always prefer the more "raw" versions. I was at a great demo of Acoustic Sounds' before and afters and almost always preferred the original—clicks and all.

Joel,

Bummer, didn't know it was going that high. It is great though! 

 

James,

Love the project you're working on. At some point I'm going to have to do the same as I'm running out of room 

Roches-Nurds
Michel Ripoche-Contes Musicaux
Clearlight-Forever Blowing Bubbles
Porcupine Tree-Up the Down Staircase

Chuck Flores-Drum Flower(CJ-49) Side 2 SQ Audiophile

The Judds-Greatest Hits Side A

Jethro Tull-The Zealot Gene Side 3

Hooters-One Way Home Side 2

The Call-Into The Woods Side 2 SQ Audiophile*

Dee Bell/Duran/Getz-Let There Be Love(CJ-206) Side 1 SQ Audiophile

The SQ champ tonight goes to Dee Bell. Stan Getz is sublime on this set. Nice 3D soundstage on this recording. *The Call has sounded better(on same system) we all know the variables. Regarding the current Jethro Tull release the songwriting is there not the voice. I hope this thread does not become overloaded with Youtube posts of systems/recordings playing ect. I would appreciate more content on recording quality some of us are still Audiophiles(not just record collectors).

The Doors - S/T  Talk about standing the test of time.  This record came out when I was 5.  I didn't really get into it until my late teens or early 20's, it was already "old" then.  Today it connects with me more than ever.

@dayglow I apologize Evan if I took the thread a little off topic.  I agree with you about our primary reason for being here.  

Well as the old Russian saying goes … everything not mandatory is compulsory…

I will work on my audiophile cred…

Arrived today,

Ella & Louis "S/T" /AP 45rpm 

The Butterfield Blues Band "East-West"

(Speakers Corner) 

Delaney & Bonnie & Friends "To Bonnie From Delaney" 

(Speakers Corner)

For people interested in David Thomas and Pere Ubu, there was a great article in the Guardian yesterday.  I didn’t know how much David’s health had declined in the past few years.

 

@puffball08 

Thanks for the heads up. Jim sent me a link to that article, but had not had a chance to read it yet. 

@slaw I’ve been eyeballin that Delaney & Bonnie Speakers Corner, how is it?

Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker-Carnegie Hall Concert Vol 1 1979 Cti Japan Press

 

 

Antonio Vivaldi - Chamber Orchestra Of The Saar, Karl Ristenpart – 5 Concerti For Diverse Instruments (Nonesuch 1966)

~ Lovely sound on this one. What a great work.

R.E.O. Speedwagon - S/T

IMHO. That is their best album. ( Much different from their sound that led them to being an 'arena rock' band.) Just listened to it last week. Specifically, the song, "Dead at Last."

John Lennon “Walls and Bridges” Capitol 1974

Michael Mantler “Silence” Watt 1976

Family “Music In A Dolls House” Warner Reprise 1969

“The Rocky Horror Picture Show” movie sound track- Ode 1975 (let’s do the timewarp again)

@j_husker Ordered the AP Someday My Prince Will Come this afternoon.   Really like the music but never had it on vinyl.
