Whats playing on your system today?


Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.

I listened to Trower songs:
Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....

Then I pulled out "Gamma". 
I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....

Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?

Once in a Lifetime .... Molotov.

Cassette

Cannot find this album by this band on Google or discogs but it is pretty darn good.

It is NOT the Mexican Molotov band.
Procol Harum - A Whiter Shade Of Pale/Lime Street Blues (stereo DSD from 45 rpm 2003 single)
uberwaltz,

This one happens to be unsuitable for most of the Audiogon. Still, I pretend it was made for me. Well, it was made long before I was born, but still.

The album has Pachalafaka on it which is probably much more known in the version by Hashim The Tourist.

Are you sure it should not be popular songs for unpopular people?
There is a thread I'm thinking of where that would be most fitting......
Terribly Sophisticated Songs - A Collection Of Unpopular Songs For Popular People
Owl Remix Low
Remix of LOW (the band) songs. LOW is a great slowcore band. This isn't slowcore but is an interesting interpretation of their songs
Kieran Hebben & Steve Reid / The exchange session, Volume 2
Free form experimental music (electronic) 
First and Last ..... Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Cassette.

Played on an old Nakamichi 500 Dual Tracer I acquired dirt cheap.
After cleaning heads, demag and adjustment of alignment it sounds excellent for an older 2 head deck.
Sibelius, Symphonies 3 & 5, Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra, Leif Segerstam, on Ondine.
Another that came in the mail today. I’ve been hunting for a reasonable price on this two CD set, and finally snagged one from the UK. BUT, interestingly enough, I have been waiting on this to arrive for over 6 weeks, purchased through eBay. Last week contacted the seller about the status....they asked me to wait an additional 72 hours for it to arrive, and I did....well, without even enquiring further, eBay stepped in, and as the seller could not provide them with a tracking number, refunded me for the purchase a couple days ago. And what do you know, it arrived today 😁

Hindu Love Gods - S/T. Giant/Reprise 1990

Brand new and sealed. Thanks @pesky_wabbitt for posting about this one.

Cassette
Billy Idol - The Stranger (Spotify premium)

Interesting mix of rock and jazzy sounds. Including the hit “The way you are” but the album has even better songs imho.

I assume you mean Billy Joel :-)
stereo5,

Thanks,

I just found one (supposedly VG+ CD with G case/cover) for $50 so I will give it a shot.
@glupson,

yup, that’s the one.  I bought it in November 1993 for $50.00    Glad I bought it then.  
Seems apt for a Monday morning.

"So, there you go, I know everyone was dying to know."


Not so fast. I have another question. Do you know what year was that SBM?

I also always found SACD somehow underwhelming/overdone.
