Over on the asylum people like to post what they are spinning that evening. Not looking for that so much, but what are you listening to lately on vinyl that you can't get out of heavy rotation? For me Alison Krauss is always a winner (thanks to Grainger) as well as the National's "High Violet". Love the albums and think the pressings are pretty good too. So those are some that seem to make it out often. You?

Lately, I've been playing a 180-gram reissue of P-Funk's Mothership Connection from 1975, and boy does it sound funky on my BH gear (Seduction +C4S, choke-loaded Quickie, S.E.X. amp with C4S, and Klipsch Heresy III). Also have seen Donald Fagen's The Nightfly (1982) on the turntable a few times lately, along with a mono reissue of Charles Mingus's Pitheccanthropus Erectus from 1956.

Seduction Spinning:
I drug out a perennial favorite today Santana Abraxas. I was doing some work in the listening room working on the floor boards that are loose but some times I just had to sit and listen.
I ordered an Eros after too long a wait.

Congrats on the Eros Grainger.
I myself can't wait to get home and spin Tom Petty, Damn the Torpedoes.

Your welcome but don' thank me. Thank the Doc and Paul. I'm sure you will enjoy it. The real question though, is if your's could top the splendor of my bright mint green Eros?  And to try to keep with the thread, while I can't spin a record until I get home, I am enjoying Damian Rice, O this evening via my macbook and AKG 702s. |

I remember the mint green Eros, probably won't top it. I'm bad about finishes, both the bases and the top plates.

Seduction Spinning:
Hello all,
I recently picked up a copy of George Benson's White Rabbit. My knowledge of jazz is very limited, so I often find myself disappointed with the selections that I bring home from the record shop. That is very much not the case in this situation. The album is very enjoyable.. toe-tappingly so. I envision it is going to stay in rotation for a very long time.
BTW, great idea for a thread.

Not only do I like Benson, I was/am a fan of Jefferson Airplane. Sounds like I need to give it a listen.

Scored a Japanese early pressing of Joe's Garage by Frank Zappa in like new condition at the local record shop today. Will definitely be in the rotation tonight. Also picked up mint copies of Van Hallen 51/50 and 1984 plus Miles Davis, Bitches Brew. Man I love that record shop. And I'm pretty sure I am putting the owner's kids through college almost single handedly.

The Beatles Love album. Two LPs remastered and remixed. For Beatles fans the new mixes bring out some of the stuff that has laid buried in the muck for oh, so many years.
There are few tracks with strings, most of the strings have been skipped (thank you!). Elenore Rigby still has the strings which I think seems appropriate. The only new music added to the old master tapes is a string accompaniment to George's While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Nicely done, much less intrusive than all those other mixes before. (I'm a fan of Let It Be Nude)

I have the Beatles USB 24bit collection. I really enjoy hearing all the extras (breathing, background sounds,etc.) and feel it's a huge improvement to the originals.

Just a few minutes ago: The Tony Rice Unit, Backwaters I tried my Sonata-1 versus my old (1986) Denon DL-103C (on a {need I say vintage?} Dual 1219) with the Denon SUT that was sold with the DL-103 in those days. The Denon placed some instruments in the speakers where the Sonata placed them just inside and a foot or two behind the speakers (I prefer that placement). The Denon brought out some details the Sonata didn't. Lunch now, more music in about 15 minutes. P.S. Does no one else have a Halloween avatar? No comments?  |
