What's Spinning Tonight?

What is it that you are spinning tonight?

 

Simply beautiful violin music. Highly recommended

 

Tonight, a revisit of these two great LP's: ,

 

Still digging through my catalog... How come one never gets tired of albums like this?

What a gift that it is so. And with excellent fidelity despite the age. Who said digital was not good in its early years?

This the VERTIGO 314558658-2 CD?

If so, it's HDCD encoded ... that said, not certain, in this case, if peak-extend was used (therefore requiring the decoder).

 

Thelonious Monk - Misterioso

Live from Thursday August 7, 1958

 

This the VERTIGO 314558658-2 CD?

If so, it's HDCD encoded ... that said, not certain, in this case, if peak-extend was used (therefore requiring the decoder).

I don't have the CD handy to check. But my DAC decodes HDCD so later on today I will check.

 

Spooled this beauty that just came into the deck, reclined my seat, closed my eyes and listened:

Wish it lasted a few hours!

HDCD it is!

 

From earlier, Counting Crows, This Desert Life:

What an excellent album.

 

Again catching up from earlier, Fugees', The Score:

Rap/Hip-hop with class . Great mix of different styles of music re-performed in this style.

Metallica Master of Puppets



Metallica ...And Justice for All



The XX Coexist



Loscil Coast/Range/Arc

 

Master of Puppets has been living in my truck cd player for the last two weeks. Listen to it twice a day in its entirety.
Not a bad track on it.

A lot of people complain about the mix on And Justice For All. I freekin love it!!!
To me it's the perfect metal album, actually you could just remove all the music and just have the kick drums and I would be good.
It also is a bit relaxed in the midrange compared to alot of other metal and that is pleasing to me.
Go ahead, see if your woofers can handle the assault.

Seems to me, another use for it would be to supercharge your engine with all the energy it has.

Excellent vintage!

 

Joni Mitchell - Travelogue

 

 

Delightful, absolutely delightful album from The Lake Poets, Live from the Minster. Superb music and excellent fidelity. Best part? It is free!

What is it you are saying? You like to argue about gear instead of downloading this? Shame on you .

Nice, never heard the MF RLJ album, I have an original regular pressing, which sounds great but is warped, plus the original cd ... also recently purchased new a 200g LP remaster{version?}, which sounds amazingly dull and completely lifeless in comparison to either orig LP or CD ... very disappointing.
