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?

There is some variability of SQ, particularly within Holland, but all three SACDs sound fine. I haven’t yet compared them to other new and old versions I have on LP. Without revealing specifics, Acoustic Sounds mentions that most but not all their BB releases are from original master tapes. There is controversy on other forums about the surround mix on Sunflower, but apparently no foul in stereo. I bought the SACDs instead of the LP versions because with my current digital set-up I slightly prefer MoFi SACDs to their 45 RPM vinyl counterparts.

"What's New",  - Linda Ronstadt/Nelson Riddle...amazingly good on vinyl. 

"Live In The Air Age" - BeBop Deluxe, digital
My vinyl copy all worn out.  One of the best performances and live recordings I've heard.  "Adventures In A Yorkshire Landscape" alone is worth the price of admission.  In fact, if you're unfamiliar with Bebop start here, their studio stuff pales by comparison.  

"Brothers In Arms" - Dire Straits.  Needed a Knopfler fix...
dgarretson---How is the sound of those three new BB SACD's? Those three albums (plus Sunflower) are real good ones from that period in their history. I see they are also available on LP; guess I'll have to choose between the two, 'cause I'll spend $100 on them, but not $200!

Neil Young: Earth LP

Beach Boys: Holland, Surf’s Up, and Smilely Smile Analogue Productions SACDs. Been waiting several years for these.

Rush "Permanent Waves" MFSL lp

reubent,

Yeah, I'm in Cincinnat. arcam88 and I grew up together. Been to a few concerts together also. Queen was probably the most memorable. I agree, Budgie punches way above their weight class. Thanks for the offer on the CD's. I'll keep it in mind.

I thought I was the only person on this side of the pond that listened to Budgie. I've got 3 or 4 of there records. Great stuff. Ahead of there time by a few years, I think. Early prog IMHO. U in Cinci? If you want to sample a few of their CD,s let me know.

BTW, Lucinda Williams is at the 20th Century next Tuesday. I'll be there....

Budgie, If swollowed do not induce vomiting.
Highly recommended EP.

Also, arcamm 88 allerted me to "Napoleon Bona Parts 1&2". Great cut.

I have been listening to a lot of Robben Ford...for several years. Have seen him in concert several times. Some vinyl out there on Robben. Rory Gallagher is mentioned in "The OLD GREY WHISTLE TEST"  DVD. Then there is Live at Montreux and a Bio on him. I enjoy seeing him and his style...then listening to his CDs. His brother is mostly managing his releases, last I heard. Most all of his stuff is out on CD and Rory played in the group called " TASTE". Hard for me to single out any one album on Rory?? Hard to go wrong with him too! Also have listened to a lot of Robert Cray!! Have also seen him in concert several times. Great, Great talent Robert is. In Cray and Ford they were so Great in concert...I find myself going back to them a lot. It is an overall Musical Relationship in that sense. I relate a visual and sound picture with them all, because of their great stage presence as well as Musicianship.
