Listening now to this stereo/mono CD.

Taj Mahal - Happy Just To Be Like I Am

Awkward title, and a bit uneven compared to previous records. Still good, just maybe not great.
Love the percussion on Eighteen Hammers, floats in front of the right speaker.

And per their website, Dunc, for UK customers if you buy 2 or more of their discs Shipping is FREE.

So you're just encouraging me to go from a to-listen-to mountain to a to-listen-to mountain range!

An amazing album from my favourite band in the world
Fake surround, my Denon does a good job of upmixing to 5.1, discrete sounds in all speakers

I just ordered a copy of that. Can't wait to hear it. Hoping the live '77 tracks that were on the Souvenir promo LP have a significant upgrade in audio quality.

The Lewis Golden Hits CD is worth owning, though they are re-recordings of the Cadet hits.

Sun Goddess features guests Earth, Wind & Fire on a couple tracks. Sun Goddess was also released as a US CBS Mastersound 1/2 speed LP.

Four GREAT 70's albums!!

Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker THE CARNEGIE HALL CONCERT [SONY MasterSOUND 24k GOLD CD] A magnificent one night event recorded in the warm acoustics of Carnegie Hall. Surprised [even shocked] that SONY didn't see fit to release it on hybrid Stereo SACD. Played in Super DSP mode on my new system, the sound is holographic. With Harvey Mason on drums, John Scofield guitar and Bob James electric piano! Produced by Creed Taylor. Highest Recommendation!

Warren Haynes Presents: THE BENEFIT CONCERT Volume 20 [Evil Teen Records/3 RBCDs/2 BD~Vs] I mean, for 23 bucks an outstanding value and the RBCDs sound absolutely spectacular. Never heard of Warren Haynes so took a chance and IMO a very awesome way to start off 2024 with stellar performances from Dave Grohl, Grace Potter, Joe Bonamassa, Gov't Mule, Marco Benevento and many others! Comes in a sturdy clamshell box with an informative glossy booklet. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION

After listening to too much Tull for the man, I like to chill out to The Beatles:
The Beatles Help! 2009 mono box (Japan)

T. Rex The Slider (Japan CD)

The Moody Blues - A Question Of Balance (Made in W-Germany CD)

Just finished my 3fer BGO Records, Doc Holliday/Doc Holliday Rides Again Disc 1 and Modern Medicine Disc 2.
I always think of myself as a Southern Rocker, but admit Doc Holliday slipped by me, not sure why.
Disc 1, great southern rock, think .38 Special and Allman Brothers mix, Disc 2 they changed there vibe, added synth sounds and not as good.
DR's between the two discs 9"s, 10's, 11's, 12's.

Jethro Tull – Live - Bursting Out 2004 CD

https://www.discogs.com/release/1141388-Jethro-Tull-Live-Bursting-Out

Such a great live album! Probably in my Top 10 favorite live albums of all time.

 

[Electric Moo]

If you're sick of all the overplayed songs from "Atom Heart Mother" and "Electric Moo" they play on those dreadful Classic Rawk radio stations, put this on. It's weird, refreshing, and has some real gems hidden on it.

Have never seen the film.

A client of mine mentioned being Ron Geesin's Aunt. She was shocked that I knew who he was. So, she gifted me several of his other discs!!

oooh so good’n blues

I grouped these three Taj Mahal discs together because they form a consecutive trio of similar albums. Very spare instrumentation and traditional. Liked the last one the best.
