Haven't heard of this one. Being a huge Tom Waits fan, I'm gonna have to find this one!

 

Herbie Hancock, "Empyrean Isles", 45rpm, Music Matters Blue Note. Note that the pic from the internet shows it as Blue Note 4175, while my album shows it as 84175 on the cover and on the label states it was originally 84175.

Steve, I believe that your internet search picked up a photo of a previous reissue ( possibly Australian??) . The original is in fact 84175.
As to the new MFSL Tom Waits Crystal Gayle "One from the heart" it's an excellent sounding LP, ( I happen to like Crystal Gayle's voice a LOT more than Tom's... ) and very worth while picking up.

Thanks for the info, Davey! I'll definitely buy that TW, CG album! She's a whole lot better looking, too!

 

Dire Straits, "Communique", 33.3rpm, Warner Bros. An as new find for $3.

 

Really enjoying listening to Horace Silver's, "The Tokyo Blues". This is one album of twelve that were included in a Horace Silver compilation of 12 of his classic albums released by Enlightenment. I think I picked this CD set up for about $10! Sound quality is very good. I have quite a few of his albums on 45rpm vinyl, but this is a nice way to listen when I don't feel like flipping vinyl every 10 minutes!

 

I listened to this one not too long ago, but it is so good I have to give it another listen. Excellent recording and playing. The first song alone is worth the price of admission. Gerry Mulligan Sextet, "Legends Live, Liederhalle Stuttgart November 22, 1977".

 

I really like Gerry Mulligan's saxophone style of playing. It fits my usual moods; smooth and soothing.

 

Dire Straits, "Communique", 33.3rpm, Warner Bros. An as new find for $3.

Listening to the 180g version right now! WB catalog 47770-1 Mastered by Bernie Grundman from original analogue tapes and pressed Pallas Germany.
Pretty freeking nice listen, super quiet vinyl.

 

2CELLOS, "IN2ITION", redbook.

Very nice. I've got so many albums of both original or early pressings and the current well done (mostly) reissues. This album, for some reason, I never bought until this recent cheap find. I am happy with the sound quality, as a matter of fact, it surprised me by how good it is. I might have to search out the Pallas pressing if I find I listen to this much. Thanks for the head's up!

 

Ben Williams, "State Of Art", redbook.

 

Mickey Hart (Yellowjackets), "Spirit Into Sound", Redbook.
