What's Spinning Tonight?

What is it that you are spinning tonight?

 

Recently found while on a trip and just cleaned. I used to own these gems years ago and sold them to get into digital. Such memories and fun music.

Nice Peter! I can remember driving down 128 to Nantasket Beach in the early 70s with a full car and Paranoid blasting on my Motorola 8 track. Great times.

Thanks Frank. I grew up not far from where you are now, in Rockford, IL. This music was what we all listened to along with Led Zeppelin. When I went away to boarding school in CT, the other boys were listening to Bob Dylan, Boston, progressive rock, Lenard Skynard?, buzzard rock, etc. There was no heavy metal. I was a bit of an outsider, musically speaking. Pink Floyd spanned the divide.

City Full Of Memories-The Spinners

 

An amusing experience at my local audio friend's place somewhat recently - we were doing some fine tuning, evaluation of his latest tweaks to a digital system ... most material was working very nicely. Then he said, I've got some special tracks that were sourced from hi res -and two versions of the cut, let's compare them ...

Oh, dear. It was the most dreary, uninspiring musical dirge I had heard in ages, where had he got this "rubbish" from. Okay ... let's try the second version - and it was worse! It felt like the musicians were swimming in molasses, horribly artificial feel to everything.

What ... was ... this ??!! ... Diana Krall, was the answer ...

Thank God I had never taken any notice of this musical "phenomenon" ...

Eva Cassidy, "Nightbird". Redbook. I ordered this 4 LP, two CD and a DVD a while ago and highly recommend it for the musical performance as well as the recording quality. I'm currently listening to the first CD and it is stellar. There are a total of 33 songs on the two CDs and also on the four LPs. There are 9 or 10 performances on the DVD. This is a live recording.
