The Anniversary edition of her debut is also quite excellent. I don't often go for pricy reissues but I went through several clean looking copies that didn't play well and that album is just so essential.

I'm gonna look for that one! I picked up Quiet Fire during a VMP sale for $27.20. For me, that was money well spent. I just spun it again. SO GOOD!

I adore Roberta Flack...but do not own any of her records. I may have to seek one out.

Starting my day with some underwater boogie! This one is a LOT of fun musically and visually, with a pop-up gatefold and punch out characters!

Never knew there was a 12" single.

you'd probably really dig Juliana Hatfield's (whom I used to see daily at the lobby in Berklee) version of Totally Hot and the rest of the covers she did on her album, definitely worth it!

During my last trip to Squeezebox (my local record store), i spied a couple of Sundazed reissues of Spirit albums. Running this one through the SM v.2!

It's 1979-1980 again! The Magic Basement is my Way-Back Machine . . . Weigh Back? Those were HEAVY daze! And the SM v.2 is doing some heavy lifting!

I've been a happy Sundazed client for a few years now. They usually have some fun titles.

CRANKING this one through the SM v.2! Oh, HELL YEAH!

I turned a LOT of students on to jazz and Coltrane over the years bumping this one in the classroom! Amazing live performances by the classic quartet!

or a little while ago...
Right now it's ...pretty decent sounding pressing ...until I saw it was off center!!!!...can't notice it much though...man. Trevor Horn is god!!!!

Before this is a thrift shop find; a 1965 LP that had probably had been played...ONCE??? Since it's RCA , it was in a plastic lined inner paper sleeve and it had basically NO DUST! and , being a 55 year old slab, it played wonderfully; VERY quiet! The recording is really good except for some string section phase issues...a very seldom heard piece by NIkolai Rimsky-Korsakov and a verrrry elegant cover ...must have cost a bit back then.

I obsessively collect all old RCA LSC series. They sound so nice.....

 

[jefe1]

Hey Clement FYI there is an expanded 2 cd set of Pablo live Coltrane with some bonus tracks.

 

[Clement]

Well, that didn't take long! Another winner from Roberta Flack!

I thought that I might know 5 or 6 songs, I know all of them! Very good bare bones pop group. Just reissued on 180 gr vinyl, clear or black.
