Otis Redding Dock Of The Bay Sessions. Lovely sound and great value. Mono with a couple of stereo tracks.
Aparte from some Pink Floyd's odds and sods (like a German Masters of Rock and Picnic compilation), I received today Loreena McKennitt's last record: Lost Souls. Ages better in my opinion to her Celtic's albums, this one goes back to her trademark full band sound. Songs are said to be leftovers and don't enter in any new ground, though still sound fresh and full of Loreena's enchantment.
I bought the vinyl from Quinlan Road at a very good price and like the rest of her vinyl reissues, it sounds superb. Very recommendable.
(And Loreena, if you ever read this, we want your full discography remixed in surround!)
I saw her live only once in Brescia, Italy. It was the most emotional concert I've ever been to. Picture a warm summer night in an open air mediaeval piazza in Italy. Add to that Loreena's haunting voice and a wonderful band. And the icing on the cake was a young lady among the public who started singing with her, in tears. Everyone around this girl ended up in tears as well, us included.Loreena is wonderful! I've seen her live twice. The first time was at Chicago Theater in '98, the second was at Chicago's Civic Opera House in '07 (?) When she introduced her band in '98, she introduced them as "idling Porsches."
Urgh Stereo remaster mixing by ES for total 10.21 Snood in!!
Snood, there are enough GREAT tunes on this 3 disc compilation to keep you and the missus hummin' along with your new BIG BOX unit for hours. ES has done his usual brilliant remastering job. Can't believe how many fantastic tunes they squeezed onto these discs.......and that ridiculously LOW, LOW price!
...But Snood was buying some obscure late Marvin Gaye today......Like:
In Our Lifetime
Here, My Dear
...
Missus?? Snood not married
Here, My Dear was Marvin's "present" for his (ex) wife Anna Gordy. It was reported that she was to get his royalties from this album as part of their divorce settlement. So, there was little motivation to do a spectacular album.
So that mean SNOOD is QQ's MOST ELIGIBLE BACHELOR???????
Heyheyhey...Ugggggh if you only knew Snoooooooood lol - to be that title is scary for the rest of yall
