Iron Maiden / Number of the Beast

What can I say, it's been a metal Friday!

ELP / works Vol 1

Interesting album, not very proggy so far.  I can say pretty confidently that Greg Lake knew what good sound was.

@jpan 

Gillian Welch, Boots No. 2: The Lost Songs

Cassandra Wilson, New Moon Daughter

Steely Dan, Katy Lied

Roy Hargrove and Mulgrew Miller, In Harmony

Great set.  Welcome.  

 


 

 

Kinks / Lola versus Powerman and The Moneygoround Part One
1970 Warner Bros.

Vladimir Horowitz performs Rach 3. Recorded live at Carnegies Hall.  RCA Red Seal  1978

Bought this used several years back.  Looks like it was never played---until now.

@corelli One of the greatest artists, piano compositions and venue. Ormandy & NY Phil. not too shabby either! Easily worth ~$5 for anybody stumbling upon a copy. 

LA4 – Live At Montreux  This might be the jazz flute album that inspired Ron Burgundy's parody. Good recording of some stinky cheese.

Herbie Hancock – The Prisoner ( Blue Note 75th Anniversary)

 

Everyone talks about his other Live LP but this in-studio live recording is also fantastic.

A great compilation series, especially for jazz beginners looking to spread their wings a bit...Milestone Twofers...highlights of Riverside/Prestige/Milestone releases

@sbank  -4 The LA 4 were a great jazz ensemble no stink here. I place zero value on "mainstream"  parody when regarding serious music!

@dayglow No offense intended. I enjoy many other albums including  3/4, and don't doubt their talent, but that flute style just doesn't do it for me. Cheers

M. Ward – Transistor Radio

Talking Heads – More Songs About Buildings And Food

Dave Mason - S/T

Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit - Georgia Blue

Miles Davis Sextet - Someday My Prince

 


Black Country, New Road
Ants From Up There
2022 Ninja Tune

 

Post Punk Bohemian Art Rock

I should also mention that this is an Audiophile quality record.

RE: Mark Knopfler,

I've been streaming John Illsley recently. His sound is very similar. I have some vinyl ordered. Worth checking out. Started out with his latest, "VIII".

 

Dire Straits - Making Movies

1980 WB Records

Great SQ but then again isn't that the case with all Dire Straits albums.

Thanks for the tip Steve.  I will check him out.  Hope all is going well for you. 

@slaw
 

Streaming now. Had never heard of him but he actually played with Dire Straits on a few of their albums. I like him.

Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris - Real Live Roadrunning

Streaming but sure wish it was available on vinyl. 

One of my favorite albums. Their version of Why Worry is a killer. Emmylou sounds like an angel. 

@tgilb 

The studio  "All The Roadrunning" is on vinyl and sounds great from memory.

@slaw 

Yes, another missed opportunity not buying All the Roadrunning when it was initially released on vinyl. I check every now and then and haven’t seen used copies for less than $400. Such a shame.

Janis Ian / breaking silence
Analogue Productions R-I #4741

A reference disc for content and SQ, a very nice recording.
