What's Spinning Tonight?

What is it that you are spinning tonight?

 

HTRK ?– Work (Work, Work) . so glad to have picked this album up this week - even the red vinyl is quiet

 

Well, I was could not get tickets for the Cure 30th anniversary of Disintegration live @ the Sydney Opera House, but they live streamed their last concert. It just finished - fuuk me , absolutely awesome. On my 75 inch TV, it was pretty darn great. So, I had to spin the album!!

 

Nas / Damian Marley - Distant Relatives

 

VERITE DE CLAVECIN - ANNE CHAPELIN



I was searching long time for a new or Mint version of this Harpschichord Record it is the best ever Recorded Harpsichord Music that i ever heard its just perfect in every way finally i found a near mint example and yes i am blown away.


Harpsichord is a instrument that i love very much and it is also a instrument which is quite difficult to reproduce in sound systems mostly it sounds too tiny and metallic in my opinion the Harpsichord must approximately sound 65% woody and 35% metallic whit a little bite. Try it to listen to Harpsichord in most Systems you will here a exaggerated Tiny/Metal sound... Thats way i use very often a high quality Harpsichord Record to see if the tonal balance is right after a change in my system.

 

Ghost Culture - self titled from 2015 on Phantasy Sound. One of my fav electro synth pop albums of 2015. the production is wickedly good.

 

 

Glen Campbell - Sings For the King. released after sitting in the vaults for over 50 years. amazing back story to this. Its fabulous!!

Between 1965 and 1968 Campbell recorded 20 demos at night with songwriters Ben Weisman and Sid Wayne, who hold the record for writing 57 songs for Presley. They improved their hopes of having their songs recorded by Presley – and his notorious manager Colonel Parker – by making full versions with lavish instrumental arrangements and vocals in his favoured key (by Campbell) so that they could envisage exactly how they would sound.

AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow
The first of two studio albums by the Bill Evans-Scott LaFaro-Paul Motian trio (both of which preceded their famous engagement at the Village Vanguard), this Portrait in Jazz reissue contains some wondrous interplay, particularly between pianist Evans and bassist LaFaro, on the two versions of "Autumn Leaves." Other than introducing Evans' "Peri's Scope," the music is comprised of standards, but the influential interpretations were far from routine or predictable at the time. LaFaro and Motian were nearly equal partners with the pianist in the ensembles and their versions of such tunes as "Come Rain or Come Shine," "When I Fall in Love," and "Someday My Prince Will Come" (which preceded Miles Davis' famous recording by a couple years) are full of subtle and surprising creativity. A gem.

I posted awhile back somewhere else about how good this album is and got nothing but crickets. Something very haunting and dark in those grooves.
