Turntable is finally back up and running. Amps are freshly rebuilt. Time to have some fun...

Dropped the needle on Marian Hill Act One, the bass hits on the entire side 1 are amazing. Actually had my neighbors knock on the door asking me to turn it down because there chairs were shaking across the floor. 

Had to give Radio Kaos a spin after the reminder here.
Excellent album and recording and Roger at his best

Yes  "The Yes Album"

Wishbone Ash  "New England"

Slaw - is that a new JB Album?  Love him!

@pops ,

It's the latest I'm aware of, although I believe it's from 2016 so, I could be wrong. Recommended!

After waiting since 1991, I finally got...

Live  "Mental Jewelry"  on my tt. always loved their sound and Ed's voice!

The Donnas  "Gold Medal"  (lp)

@reubent ,

Been listening to "Way Out West" today.. nice call!

Internet radio, WCLV, Cleveland,s classical station.
John Abercrombie, “Timeless” and “M”

Slaw - Thanks. I really like it. I'm trying to figure out if I can get home from my annual Colorado Ski Trip a day early to see Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives in the awesome Memorial Hall in Cincinnati.

shhhhhh!! don't tell you family your on Audiogon while out there....

I'm listening to Vic Chesnutt's "North Star Deserter" (lp) now. When I found out his stuff was being re-mastered on vinyl I scooped them up quickly.

In-between sides of the VC lp, I'm listening to Ricky Nelson  "Garden Party" (lp)/ OP/Decca,  nice!

slaw,
Though I don't have it on LP, Mental Jewelry is a great recording. "Water Boy, " The Beauty of Grey- its all great. I have several of their discs, love em' all. 
Caught them live, (no pun intended) in Cincinnati at Coney Island's Riverbend. 
Day's of the New was the opening act. 

N

Nutty, how was days of the new live?....love their music wish it was on vinyl!

@nutty,

I seem to recall an Ed' (solo) record? Have any personal knowledge?

"Mental Jewelry" is an easily overlooked (great debut lp).

Jethro Tull "Minsrtel in the Gallery"  Steven Wilson mix/(lp)

pops,
We’re talking close to 20 years ago,
What I remember most about Days of the New was that while the music was great, they were very under produced. They were promoting their first albumn and they were very "raw". The lead singer was grungy, played very aggressively and was barefoot. The songs sounded like the CD but they didn’t have much stage presence. The drum kit was not even elevated. But overall, I like the them live.

slaw, 
Article on Ed K's split with Live. But have not heard any of his solo. Believe it to be Christian.

Sparks
Kimono My House
Propaganda
On all systems...

There is some addictive quality to this crazy music that I must have missed years ago. 

Joe Bonamassa - Blues Deluxe (his third "solo" release).

The title track...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUyA1_NGNI4

Nick Drake - Pink Moon.

Today I have been listening to Rainbow - Black Masquerade, Led Zeppelin - I am gonna Leave You,  Bob Seger - Blowing Against The Wind and The Fire Inside. Then I went further a field and Listened to Diamanda Galas - The Iron Lady, what a song and what a singer. Then on to Sains Sans - Dance Macabre and onto Richart Wagner - Siegrfrieds Funeral, that is a piece written by a true musical genius. Then on to Sibelius to his last movement of his First Symphony, not his famous stuff but for me this piece of music has a certain resonance with me.

Brickyard Road.....Johnny Van Zant

Joe Satriani, What Happens Next
Joe's newest features Glenn Hughes on bass and Chad Smith on drums.

N

@nutty
Joe was next up on my playlist!
What happens next and then still one of my fave albums of his, Engines of Creation

Close the night with Retrospective3....Rush.
Been listening to these guys since 74, remember wearing a copy of 2112 out in 76 in the student common room!
I know a lot of love for Glenn Hughes here but top of my mental list when I think bass players comes Geddy Lee, I mean he plays, sings and plays keyboard with his feet !
Alex lifeson also vastly underrated guitarist
Neil peart....what more needs be said about one of the very best drummers in the world

Division....10 Years

Danny Grissett

Unleashed Memories...
Dark Adrenaline...........Lacuna Coil.

A not very well known Italian gothic metal band...sounds like they should be awful but the girl can sing like an angel! Their earlier stuff, 2002 to 2008 is their best imho

Our local FYE had a 50% off sale on some select new vinyl today and I could not resist.....

Dark Adrenaline......Lacuna Coil

Mer De Noms........ A Perfect Circle

Very nice mastering job on both albums and 180g to boot

I've owned the Perfect Circle lp for years...always thought it sounded good.

Ben Harper/Charlie Musslewhite. "Get Up!"

Eric Clapton "461 Ocean Boulevard"

Rolling Stones. "Goats Head Soup"

all vinyl all the time

CSN......Crosby, Stills and Nash
The Tidal MQA master version.
Stellar, nearly as good as the vinyl pressing and much superior to CD version.

@slaw
The store had all 3 perfect circle lps but I balk at paying $35 per album!
So at half price I did not mind but they now only had mer de noms left.
Can’t wait for their new album as the recent teaser tracks are righteous!
Saw them live last year at Rockville.

Mary Gauthier’s new CD - Rifles & Rosary Beads. Very special CD from Mary.
