Whats on your turntable tonight?

@tomic601 sorry that record is putting you through such paces.

sometimes I move my Fortes around my living room to different effect.  They actually sound really good pushed all the way into the corners on Chesky stuff.  The sound effects are cool.  But really it’s more about the music than the sound tricks.  I just think that record is beautiful music in its recording space.  Her voice, the strings and the percussion.  It really doesn’t sound right in your normal setup? 

The thing I like about her voice is that it’s so real. She sings like people talk. Strangely, although her music is nothing like his, I think she’s like Sinatra in this aspect. A cadence in harmony with the language. I’m weird, I know. Just dig her natural unpretentious ways.

Spiritofradio  -  I saw Nektar last Thursday night at a club in Kennett Square, Pa.  I saw them back in the late 70's and saw what is left of the band. They still sound great !!

waters, 

dude, where you been.  we have seriously missed you.  been wanting to ask if you’ve heard this band of kids, Glitter Wizard, that play like the graduated from high school in 1967 not 2017.....

I like their album Hunter Gatherer

please check em out By maybe starting with the cuts “blood of the serpent” and “space” and let us know if they get a most coveted 730waters certificate of hard rock excellence.  Seriously. 
Very cool about Nektar.  I didn’t know they were still working at it.  The original guitar guy passed away a long time ago didn’t he?

Grannie is cool.  I have that one.  Have sort of slowed down on acquisition of heavy stuff lately.  Your return inspires me to rock on. Will play some Sabbath loudly.  Good for a cold day.  

Also saw Nektar last Saturday in Baltimore, they're touring in support of this new album 'the other side' which is a tribute of sorts to members who have passed to the other side. light show and all, terrific concert.and the merch table had colored vinyl for  sale, most all of their back catalog
