Whats on your turntable tonight?

A friend's question about what I've heard in 2013 that I found special caused me to have to reflect a bit. My reply to him was that the two recent Yarlung recordings were very nicely recorded:

Petteri Ilvonen - Art Of The Violin/Yarlung
Antonio Lysy - At The Broad-Music From Argentina/Yarlung

But the LP that impressed me the most was a used record from Ars Nova: an early pressing of Ivan Moravec playing Chopin Nocturns. I've had this recording in my collection for many years in a later pressing. Hearing the earlier pressing was an auditory thrill.

Moravec, pn: Chopin: Nocturnes op9, op15, op27, Connoisseur CS 1065 (Cream and Gold label)

And, truly top drawer for me have been the ORG 45rpm reissues of the London/Decca recordings, particularly:

De Falla's Three Cornered Hat,
Ravel's Daphnis et Chloe
Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream

But all of the ORG London/Decca reissues are great!

I am listening to the speaker corner. The Nutcracker .....
Ansermet it is spectacular .

Television-Marquee Moon

just playing ...Freedom - At last on French BYG Label...and the whole Album is worth to listen through..
Followed by Nucleus-We`ll talk about it later on Swirl Vertigo, great jazz-Rock...
and finally a moster track you all should listenn ones at least...Delfines-Amigos sigue igual... from 70! What a bass on this tune...!!!

Have just been playing the Yarlung LP: Petteri Ilvonen - Art Of The Violin. My wife came in and said, "that sounds really nice, who's the composer?"
Answer: "just finished a Debussy piece and this is by David Lefkowitz"
Question: "Who's David Lefkowitz?"
Answer: "I've never heard of him either, but I'm going to learn more!"
