What's Spinning Tonight?

Love London Grammar, good stuff. How about a little Bassface trio plays Gershwin. Stockfisch label, SACD, impeccable quality and addicting Gershwin tunes to boot.

Pat Methany Group, "Missouri, June 1979". BB Presents. This is one of two "bootleg" albums I picked up at Half Priced Books. There is no cover, just a thick plastic sleeve, which the record slides into. The vinyl is clear (no color) and the recording is decent, but not an "audiophile" recording. It's a live album and the group really lets go and seem to be having a lot of fun. Sound staging seems to vary a bit, but the music is there and good. I think I gave $9 for each album. On the plastic sleeve there is what appears to be Russian or Greek writing and it says it is licensed by Alfa/RVI, Tokyo - limited edition 500 copies. I read on one site that this is a bootleg of a Warner Brothers promotional LP and was recorded at the Blue Note, NYC. Anyway, fun album.
 
Stravinsky, The Firebird Suite (1919), Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Carlo Maria Giulini. 45RPM Angel Sonic Series. Incredible dynamics.

Back from a nice trip to Big Bend National Park and the first piece of vinyl I'm playing is the excellent Bonnie Raitt album, "The Lost Broadcast, Philadelphia 1972", put out by Let Them Eat Vinyl. Very well done live album. I recommend adding this one to your vinyl collection.
