Yes, this was one of the Sheffield Labs albums that I had back then (got it shortly after it’s release from memory) thanks Tim. I was obviously too young (and possibly stupid) back in the late 80’s to even question the crowd of Russians wading through the watermelons on the cover... young audiophiles, just too busy listening seriously and critically to even notice the strangely obvious lol.Wow - I think the same of that Appalachian Spring Suite, played by Russians no less! And the tune that comes before it - Shosty's Festive Overture is fantastic. Glasnost!

Come on Tao. No apology pls. I listened in youtube I liked how he played. They are just bad pressings. I bet the recordings were meant to play on digital and sound much better on that.I feel bad in that I suggested the Daniil Trifonov recordings (digital via streaming) but I do find his performances of Rachmaninov are both compelling and engaging. Apologies if in the end the resultant vinyl pressings simply just aren’t that good Tang. Disappointing to hear.
Yes, true but it is still disappointing. It would just be good if artists today were better served better by all mediums.Come on Tao. No apology pls. I listened in youtube I liked how he played.

I have an adequate system Micro so that is overall quite good.I have several DG recordings of Trifonov - the FLAC versions sound really good in my system, with a good feeling of the piano (and pianist) being in the room. However I have been told that the 24-bit/96kHz files played in an adequate system are better sounding than the vinyls.
Tango,
Since you like the romantic, moving kind of pianism (I'm guessing here), perhaps you should try some of the modern composers/players, like Niels Frahm and Oláfur Arnalds. I believe their vinyl doesn't suck, and you can probably preview their music on YouTube.
I'm playing their collaboration album (Frahm and Arnalds) right now, called "Trance Frendz", and it's gorgeous (not the LP though).
Hi. Asiufy. I only now realize I like romantic. Eversince I had a son, my sentimental gland has been overly sensitive. Two days ago I was watching Under the Tuscan Sun. The movie stimulated my romantic gland enough I wanted to move to Italy with my family when I retire. May be become Gian's neighbor. Even Korean series often put me in tears these days. I found a leaflet below at a hospital and it made me think if such thing could happen to men.

(Plus I wanted something to get us past David's long horn biker.)
Looks like a bad case of digititus... but from where he’s sitting it probably feels more analogue.
