Whats on your turntable tonight? Bobby Dukoff And His Orchestra – Sweet Swingin’ Sax In Stereo (RCA Camden 1959)This is insane. Great recording. Great sax, piano and crystal clear drumkit and some vibes. Then accompanying the music is a a ’dooo di doooo de doo’ female vocals by... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Bobby Dukoff - Swingy Saxy Sound (Stereoddities 1959?)This guy engineered a bunch of sax mouthpieces. He died aged 93 in 2012 and his company still sells them. Very mellow sax with some funky Hammond B3 type organ. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Godfrey Hirsch - At Pete's Place, New Orleans (Coral 1965 mono)Strangly addictive in its chill vibe. VG+ unfortunately. | |

Has anyone else auditioned something that really was terrible? Went for a demo and they played their best system. CD with some sand amps and those weird Gallo speakers. They thought it was awesome. The music had the oddest single purple-grey color. I asked how much and they proudly told me in that smugness re... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @tomic601 Nice. I think it was Steve that turned me on to WW. Speaking of which, @slaw is MIA. | |
LONDON Decca, Tzar DST and similar cartridges Yeah, it's just that tinny, microphonic Decca sound when the stylus hits the groove. If you are gentle, it can be minimized. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Fairport Convention - Gladys' Leap (Woodworm 1985)Solid enough album with Ralph McTell writing some good songs. More folk rock than pure folk. |
