First time hearing this with the new arm and cartridge, and its like listening to a completely different record, just so much detail that can be brought up from this record.

Clifford Brown, Max Roach, "Live at the Bee Hive", Colombia JG35965

This the last known recording of Clifford Brown and he does some great blowing. HOWEVER, this is a live and very non-professional orginal recording. I suspect a consumer grade portable tape machine was just set on the stage and left running. The drums grossly over modulate the recording and it is a very tough listen. The piano is completely lost in the "mix".

There is great jamming going on here but things are not in hi-fi sound. Glad I own this set but it will not get a lot of play.

I wasn't sure about this when I bought it the other day, it's very much different to my usual stuff.

But I'm pleasantly surprised, there are some amazing performances on here, and although a bit out there for me, I bet it's nowhere near as out there as it must have seemed 42 years ago!

I like this! I'm not sure I "understand" it, but I'm not sure if I'm meant to... :-k

Brahms: Symphony #4.
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
Firtz Reiner, conductor.
Chesky reissue CR6
Wow! Solid brilliance and powerful inexorability characterise Brahms for me. This production is an illustration of that. And the Denon DL-103R plays it in that vein.

Machine Gun by The Commodores.

....and it's not the 'Easy Like Sunday Morning' or '3 Times A Lady' era Commodores. It's their 1974 Motown debut LP when they were still a true Funk band and sounded pretty damn good. Thankfully I can't hear Lionel Richie on any tracks though he was lurking there somewhere........

Tchaikovsky, Capriccios Italien and Espangnol, Boston Pops directed by Arthur Fiedler, Crystal Clear CCS-7003

Colored discs came up in another thread. I had not played this white vinyl direct to disc record in a number of years. Performance is not as fast and stiff in tempo as I recalled.

This album sounds so clear on vinyl, you can tell Vintage Trouble put their heart and soul into every track.Very R&B.

This album was only £11.30 from Amazon and worth every penny :D
