leon lowman "liquid diamonds"...holy cow. unreal good
|
@noromance yeah, I played it and there are a couple of great cuts a couple of real rejects and the rest mostly excessive progressive. Synths aren’t recorded well. Anyway, Richie’s singing is good and interesting inclusion on the record.

Just arrived today:
Bud Powell-Time Waits (The Amazing Bud Powell) 2022 BN Classic
Milt Jackson With John Lewis, Percy Heath, Kenny Clarke, Lou Donaldson And The Thelonious Monk Quintet 2022 BN Classic
On an unrelated note, I have this thing for lp box sets. Call it a fetish, call it a character flaw. Either way I look in my collection and around the room and there’s an over abundance of them. Most are unopened. Struggling with the decision to sell, or bust em open and spin them.
|
|
@j_husker I don't think you're alone in doing that. I have a few unopened MOFI one-steps.
|
Gregory Porter - Be Good.
|
Was out of town with my wife for a few days. Didn't realize how much I missed vinyl until just now. The system sounds incredible tonight with this Califone album. Highly recommended although it might just be my mood right now 😃
|
@j_husker I have the same problem, so, I’ll buy them from you.
|
in the middle of a big soul run...blue magic, harold melvin, darondo, more obscure stuff like the brief encounter, don julian and the larks etc...sometimes it's just what you need

CAN / Rite time (remastered version)

Hi Tim,
I have a few Califone lps. Was wondering if their latest efforts are as good?
|
Currently streaming Orenda Fink "Blue Dream". Thinking about the vinyl.....
|
Hey Steve!
I streamed a few before buying this one earlier this week. This is only the second Califone album I have (The other being "Heron King Blues", which you already own). Anyway...while streaming I didn't hear one I wouldn't own & would have bought more but this was the only Califone album the record store had.

Neil Diamond, Hot August Night III
|
Yeah, I think that when I listened to a couple newer songs, they didn't grab me.

@spiritofradio "Please Don’t Touch" when released it was noted as very innovative for some unusual effects used. I've been playing occasionally since its release. Most recently spun it after watching a Genesis doc on Wind & Wuthering where the narrator said "If Gabriel was the band's brains, Hackett was its soul"!

Diana Krall - The Look of Love Verve records, excellent recording and pressing. Beautiful music to relax the night away (last night).
Boz Scaggs - Dig A wonderful album, some of his best written music. A bit of a "modern" recording sound, though. But the bass is really good. Deep and strong. Vocals are absolutely dead-center, locked in.
Both of these albums arrived yesterday. I'll be listening to them a few more times, very soon.

Tomaso Albinoni, I Musici – 12 Concerti A Cinque Op. 5 (Philips 1982 Digital)

Not the quietest vinyl. Some clown damaged a visually pristine record with a junk stylus.
