Spinning on the Turntable now...

Good to see you back

Yes, indeed. One of my favorite members who has opened my music listening experience

I joined a vinyl club to get a discount on some vinyl. Fine print says they send you their choice of vinyl every few weeks.......I canceled

So I present something I would have never bought

It's growing on me, but as much as I try, I am still stuck in the 70's music scene.
I like exploring music I've never heard of, Mingus Moves, is a great example, that I've come to love and purchase more......
See, there is still hope for me

This is really good. Recorded at Trident in 1970: fantastic sonics & mix. A new clean quiet pressing too.

I was hearing what I assumed was lots of inspiration from Miles' "silent way" "bitches brew" & even King Crimson's mellower free jazz stuff from their 1st album. But after looking into it, apparently these guys hadn't heard any of that Miles' material before recording.

Must have been "something in the air" to quote Jorah Mormont.

Really digging the drums & guitar, will have to track down other material they did. Looks like they played on a Jack Bruce album together.

If I had heard of Jimmy Smith before this month, I don’t remember. But after enjoying the Acoustic Sounds Verve release of Lightnin’ Strikes, I went looking for others in the series. Can’t say a lot of the titles grabbed me, but I streamed a bit of this one and decided to get the vinyl.

You inspired me to revisit another Smith caught live. This one is KILLER!

I'm not a huge fan of electronic music, but this is really really good. Iceland by Richard Pinhas formerly of Heldon.

Embedding pics is very flakey for me...so just attached.

Bought this off ebay and it's not great condition (get a wooooph as it goes over warp and lots of crackle).

When I was a small child my grandad used to play Hammer-Nail to me. He had a National Panasonic Music Centre and it was probably my first experience of listening deliberately to music. He was a "difficult" man and died when I was 15. So those memories are probably the only nice ones I have of him. I've never owned this in any form until now.

It's a great album.

I listened to this about a 2 weeks ago. I hadn't played it in a few years. Great is an understatement.

The original mix? That version of "No Quarter" is the best ever. And, I have heard A LOT of live recordings of that song.

 

[SyrinxTemple]

In a statement unlikely uttered by anyone other than me... Slade on Stage is my favorite live album of all time.

Well, just put that on my "to play" list.

Well, just put that on my "to play" list.

I have no idea why this album caught me the way it did to rocket to my top spot. I know most people will point to Alive! as their best live album, but except for one ballad, this one never lets up in an 80s hard-rock sort of way that I really liked. Plus... a cool fiddle solo!

Just added this to my streaming playlist to give it a try!

Well, it took me 46 years to discover Strangers In The Night, so I look forward to listening!
