Hauntingly beautiful.

I haven't been keeping up with the thread.  I've been on vacation and haven't been around the computer much.  

Working my way through Elton John - Madman Across The Water, and possibly my favorite - Tumbleweed Connection.

Wooden Wand – Death Seat (Young Gods 2010)

A favorite. Superb. Recommended.

That's a good album. Probably not well know as it was released well past his peak popularity. Certainly worth a listen. I only have it on CD.

We start the year with another Concord Jazz SQ win. With the exception of the Motown recording everything had above average SQ. Will continue to play my complete vinyl collection while trying(not easy) to avoid repeats. Started this process in April 2020, pretty sure I’m close to 80% of my vinyl played.

 

@dayglow

I could not do that!

@noromance +1 It’s very difficult to recall exactly what album or side you played 2 years or even 2 months ago. The idea came from a thread here regarding how many records is too many? The stereotype that "Audiophiles" play the same 100 titles over and over despite having thousands of vinyl albums was a personal attack. I knew it would take over 3 years to complete this task but so far it has been very rewarding and informative.

@dayglow I only really post albums here that I haven't played in a while. It would look odd if the same albums appeared all the time. By the same token, I find posting here forces me to play other stuff in the collection - often with some nice surprises. 

Just arrived.
