[Hi-FiOutlaw]

HQ 180g by Premonition Records 8)

 

[Marvindodgers]

Welcome To The Pleasuredome - Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Two Tribes 12" Annhilation Mix - Frankie GTH

Hysteria - The Human League

 

[BIGBERNARDBRESSLAW]

Its on my list - Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain

Classical/Soundtrack/Jazz

It's not to everyone's taste, and jazz purist probably hate it, but to me, it's right up there.

I'll be seeking out a perfect copy though, as mine has a few too many pops for my liking.

And as I thought, "Water Babies" was off the turntable very soon after my wife returned to the room, where in contrast, she quite liked "Sketches of Spain", especially the opening "Concierto de Aranjuez".

Eric Burdon and The Animals

Eric Burdon and The Animals

Hey Andy, I love The Animals, and in particular Eric Burdon's vocals.

If you get a chance, though not available on vinyl ( I'm pretty sure anyway), try his last two solo albums Soul Of A Man (2006) and 'Til Your River Runs Dry (2013). I love them both, and he might be the wrong side of 70 these days but he can still belt out a song and get a crack group of musicians together.

Thanks for letting me know. However I have both CDs which will do for me, I don't buy new vinyl these days.

Sketches is one of the albums my Dad and I can both enjoy. He's from a classical, non-rock background and I'm not. But we both love this.

I'm streaming it from my Mac, as my turntable is still in storage. The builders are finished bar one small window to install upstairs. Then it's just four large rooms to paint, three floors to lay and one kitchen to fit.

Oh and an AGA cooker to move from the front lounge into the kitchen. Easy!!'

Miles Davis - Sketches from Spain 180g mono pressing

 

[Al ears]

Miles Davis - Sketches from Spain 180g mono pressing

Nice album. Mono eh? I don't think I have any mono recordings left in my collection.

I've just ordered Wilco "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot' 2x180gm pressings by Sundazed, so not actually listening to it ...... yet.

PS If you have not already looked Google Thee Absolute Sound 'Guide to Vinyl Playback'. Its a .pdf flie and towards the end there is a listing of what they consider to be some of the best album recordings to date. I find it quite handy if looking for something new.
