Can't go wrong with Grant Green. 45rpm from Analogue Productions reissued Blue Notes.

Nice, have you checked out their 'Black Symphony' on BlueRay? Magical as well.

Absolutely, it is one of my favorite concert DVDs.

Yes - Open Your eyes

Just love this disc. highlights are "Wonderlove", which just sums up how I felt the day I met Kerry.

I enjoyed two double albums today. First up was 2009's "Monsters of Folk".

Next was Ray La Montagne's 2008 release, "Gossip In The Grain".

William Boyce Concerti Grossi

Boyce + CLX + Dreaming Tree cabernet... a beyond-pleasant night cap after a rather challenging Monday.

Cheers all

For those of you who enjoy the occasional irreverent guilty pleasure... surprisingly good SQ as well:

 

[slowGEEZR]

America's loudest lounge singer? Ha ha, I bet that is a kick.

The...Dickness?

I do apologize for lowering the collective forum brow with this one ... but it is a hoot.

How much XO was imbibed prior?

Have to serve up some Julie Brown when you come calling.

I never before realized that women with tats were popular with lounge lizards.

How much XO was imbibed prior?

100% sober - frightening, I know.

Listened to three albums, today. First up was "Steve Winwood". This record has great sound for being a late '70s era pop/rock album.

Next up was Mark Olson & Gary Louris, "Ready For The Flood". Nicely recorded, sounds like two guys playing guitar and singing right in your room.

Last up was Lee Morgan, "Vol 3". This is a Classic Records reissue and I can only listen to this at low levels, as the brush strokes on the drums are so much louder than the rest of the music, that they are very harsh and distorted. This is more pronounced on the first two songs. I don't know where the blame lies, with the reissue or the original (I suspect it was remastered poorly), but the other playing on the album still make it worthwhile. Anyway, I can't recommend this Classic Records reissue. Of course, there's always the possibility of something wrong with my playback system, or just the pressing on this particular record.

Late to the thread since the day is almost over + had to turn it off since the kiddos are in bed (need to be quiet), but focused mainly on Fiona Apple's 1st album -Tidal. Album still kicks butt and sounds fantastic with my recently purchased Summits!

I just bought my 1st HD Tracks dowload for my new Olive 04HD. I choose Steely Dan's "Two Against Nature". I am a HUGE Steely Dan fan, so that was a no brainer for me. It's AWESOME!

England My England

Nice mix of polyphony, antiphony, baroque, and other sublimities. A most pleasant background musical assortment during these now waining office hours.

Todd, have you heard that choir doing the Allegri Miserere? Amazing boy soprano in it..

Is this the one Bernard? The Amazon sample and rave reviews suggest a potential purchase. It was recorded when I was a about 18mo old and is touted for it's excellent SQ. Cool!
