Whats on your turntable tonight?


For me its the first or very early LP's of:
Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South"
Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue
Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer"
and,
Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
slipknot1

Natalie Lamb & Sammy Price – And The Blues (G.H.B. 1980)

Barbara Lea – A Woman In Love (Audiophile 1981)

Doc Evans, Knocky Parker, Albert Nicholas, Earl Murphy, Gene Juckem – Reminiscing In Dixieland, Stomps And Blues Vol. 2 (Audiophile 1959)

- The Doc Evans 1959 recording takes the Leonard Cohen digital recording and destroys it. There is no comparison in clarity and tone. 

The Twilight Sad - Nobody Wants to Be Here But Nobody Wants to Leave.

 

Seeing the Cure on my 50th. Though a fan since the mid 80’s it’s my first time catching them. Twilight Sad is opening.

Joni Mitchell - Songs To A Seagull

Reprise reissue, think early 70’s, originally 1968

Gilels-Live At Carnegie Hall(MHS 824369) Side 2

Renaissance-A Song For All Seasons Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Freddie Jackson-Do Me Again Side 2

Peter Case-Blue Guitar Side 2 SQ*

Earl Bostic-For You(King 503) Side 1

Queen II-Side White

Oscar Peterson Trio-With Respect To Nat(mono)Side 2

David Foster-The Symphony Sessions Side 2 SQ Audiophile

I waited 1 week after Axpona for any playback on my system which was a good cleansing. Nothing sounded below average but the stereo version of Earl Bostic sounded equally mono. Would need to hear Peter Case again to verify possible Audiophile SQ. Foster takes the SQ crown despite sounding more like a CD then vinyl. IMO the content rises above the SQ. Northern Lights what a great song!
