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
Thanks again Rushton, you encourage me to keep it up (much to the chagrin of some I'm sure! ;^)
Dutilleux/Lutoslawski: Cello Concertos - Rostropovitch, Baudo/CzechPO, Lutoslawsk/OrchParis -EMI ASD 3145

A marvelous recording, perhaps one of the best cello concerto recordings in my collection. The Dutilleux is particularly attractive and interesting musically, not just sonically.

I see the Arthur Salvatore finally found this recording and gave it special recognition as "FINEST CELLO CONCERTO RECORDING" in March 2011.

Antonio Carlos Jobim - "The Composer Of Desafinado, Plays" [Verve mono LP '63]
