Title: Latest music you've picked up...
Post by: bob82274 on 30 Dec 2002, 11:12 pm
This thread is for when ever you pick up some new music.  Give us your impressions on the music and if you feel its neccessary the recording.  This is what this hobby is all about so voice your opinion.  Doesn't matter what format so long as its music.  If its a movie just take it over to bubba at the cinema as we do want to hear your opinion on that stuff too.  This thread will be archived every week so as to keep it clean.  I will try to see if I can't get it so that I have the archives in this post so you don't have to go looking for them.  If I can't then just search the Music Circle for 'Archive' and you should be set.

I "had" all of the Morphine albums, but coudn't find my copy of "Cure For Pain".  I  must have lent it to somebody and never gotten it back or left it somewhere....

So I had to buy it again.

The cd is probably hanging out with my bottle of Kontact...

I recently found a 'new to me' band, Vas.  Though leaning more to Eastern musical tradition, highly recommended to Loreena McKennitt and DCD/Lisa Gerrard fans.  The singer, Azam Ali, also has a beautiful 'solo' effort out, "Portals to Grace", which is more Medieval Euro oriented.

Have you heard Trial of the Bow?? Someone on AA recommended them to DCD fans (along with Vas). TOB's "Rite of Passage" seems more DCDish than Vas to my ears (though I like both).

WhooP!
New music, just picked up.
AM I in the wrong thread?

"Los Lonely Boys"

If Scott F. had already posted this, ignore me and go back to your previously scheduled programing...

It"s  now, their premiere album, if I get my story straight, is on sale at Best Buy for 10 bux.

If you like early Santana as when they had a B-3 behind him, and a taste of Everly Bros. harmonies, go on out and give yourself a treat.
For a debut album, it was first rate.  


Scott F. turned me onto this album sunday.
On monday, I took my 30 minute lunch and ran to Best Buy.
Found it for 10 bux!
Made it back with 3 minutes to spare.
(Is this an Act o' God or what?)
I danced with my broom.

According to the blurb on the outside of the cd " Willie Nelson's Favorite Local Band'.
Now how good a review is that or what?

Take a chance, Columbus did!    :lol:

Best Regards,
DF

Jeff Buckley--"The Grace EP's"
I haven't played it too much yet, but so far it has been a disappointment:
a number of the live versions are just too rambling for my tastes. Some of the songs that are in the 4 minute range on the studio "Grace" are stretched out to 11 to 14 minutes in the live versions ( I realize such expansion is common in live performances, but it doesn't work for me here).  There were a few times when I thought my CD player was malfunctioning (i.e. playing the same section over and over) but it was just the band repeating the same riff (maybe Jeff left the stage to pee??).

Keep in mind that I think the studio "Grace" is one of the great albums ever; fortunately, I got the EP box (5 EP's) off eBay, so it wasn't too expensive.

Reminds me somewhat of comparing Crosby, Stills "Deja Vu" to the live "Four Way Street"--the live songs are MUCH longer, a little looser but the CSNY jams work much better for me than Buckley's.

Title: New discs for my modded SCD-1
Post by: SWG255 on 16 Apr 2004, 01:34 am
I went a little crazy at Elusive Disc last weekend, since they were having a "Tax Time Sale". All the titles are on SACD except the Burmester Sampler:

BRUCE COCKBURN ANYTHING, ANYTIme, Anywhere
     AIMEE MANN LOST IN SPACE and Bachelor No. 2
           RAY BROWN Trio  SOULAR ENERGY            
BLUES QUEST SAMPLER                
CONCORD SACD Samplers (Volumes 1 and 2)
THE COWBOY JUNKIES OPEN            
JACO PASTORIUS Big Band WORD OF MOUTH
ANDY NARELL THE PASSAGE            
BURMESTER 03        Sampler (CD)


Of these, I've listened to Bruce Cockburn, Ray Brown, Aimee Mann "Lost in Space", The Jaco Pastorius Big Band and a little of the Andy Narell disc.

The Bruce Cockburn disc is interesting on SACD. I have almost all the music on it already on CD, but the SACD versions are livelier, and his voice is more natural. It's particularly interesting to listen to a sampler from the same artist, one can really hear the different recording techniques and venues clearly from song to song.

The Ray Brown Trio "Solar Energy" disc is terrific, with a very live presentation of the trio. Interestingly the piano is brighter on the SACD layer than the red book layer, but I think the piano sound is more realistic on the SACD layer too.

I really dig the Jaco Pastorius Big Band disc, it's a sonic treat and the selections are variable enough to allow for repeated playings when i'm in different moods.

The Aimee Mann disc is also terrific, with good vocal sound, although on first hearing it didn't seem as dynamic as I expected it to be.

The Andy Narell SACD has to be heard to be believed. It's amazing to hear all those steel drums playing at once!

Happy listening!

Picked up a great CD this weekend titled Iommi. It's Tony Iommi paired up with vocalists like Henry Rollins, Dave Grohl, Ian Astbury, Ozzy and Billy Idol. All the songs are well done, rock hard and actually sound pretty good. The disk was released in 2000, and I never heard anything about it. Pretty good find  :D

I think Jackyl is still together/together again.  I got a kick out of those guys, too.

I was a bit disappointed my that Iommi CD- it's a bit to "nu-metal" for my tastes.  The post-Ozzy Sabbath stuff is more to my liking.

How I ever missed Matthew Sweet, I'll never know.

Just got "Girlfriend" CD and fired up the first track

"Divine Intervention" 3 times in a row! It's all good!
I'm a sucker for power pop,
whether it be
The Rooks
Richard X Heyman
Posies
etc. etc.

And as a worshipper of Television, how I missed the fact that this is what Richard Lloyd did in the late 80's, early 90's, I'll never know. Although I do know: it was all that Barney the Dinosaur and Raffi I listened to after the birth of my first daughter (now 14).

In fact, she came in to listen to Divine Intervention and like it. I'm taking her to the Shins concert in June...

Rob,

If you like old Sabbath and Priest, I think you might dig Fireball Ministry. They rock pretty good with no "nu-metal" to be found. I think there are samples on their website. I think their first CD, Ou est la Rock? is the better of the two.

Has anyone been able to get a copy of the new Kill Bill Vol. 2 Soundtrack?
What are your impressions of it?

Bestbuy didn't have it or even advertise it.  But then again they didn't have Vol. 1 either so it may just be that it was more popular than they thought it would be.

Title: Tower SACD sale purchases
Post by: SWG255 on 28 Apr 2004, 12:56 am
Tower Records had about 50 SACDs listed on sale, so I picked up a few:

The Police  "Every Breath You Take"
John Coltrane  "A Love Supreme"
Beck  "Sea Change"
Diana Krall  "When I Look in Your Eyes"
Steely Dan  "Gaucho"
Beethoven Sym. Nos 5 & 7  Wiener Philharmonic / Carlos Kleiber
Roger Waters  "The Wall Live in Berlin"
Steve Earle  "Guitar Town"

I put the Police SACD on first, and it is excellent. The clarity of the instrumentation and vocals, especially the backing vocals, is far better than the red book versions of these songs I have on several of the Police red book CDs.

Happy listening to you all!

In 1970 I was in London; coming out of the Earls Court subway station I saw scrawled on a wall, "I don't know what you Yanks know about rock and roll, but Eric Clapton is God!". Clearly this was someone who had never heard Bo Diddley.

Well Bo Diidley, Muddy Waters, Eric Clapton or Jimmy Page, nobody who has ever heard Jascha Heifetz play, would deny him his rightful place in the violin pantheon.

I just got the XRCD of Tchaikovsky's Violin Cincerto in D - played by Heifetz with Fritz Reiner conducting the the Chicago Symphony. Recorded in 1957 basically at the dawn of stereo recording. This is a landmark performance; the only other I have heard that I enjoyed as much was Kyung Wha Chung's performance at one of the Tchaikovsky competitions (can't remember which, but I believe in the early 90s). I have this on vinyl, bought in the 70s and bought the XRCD more for the fact that it has been the only decent CD of this recording that I have been able to find.

The sound quality is terrific - I am able to hear intonations of the violin that I haven't heard before as well as minor instruments out in the orchestra. Pretty good given the quality of microphones back then I think. Heifetz' playing is extraordinary, as is the performance of Reiner and the Chicago Symphony. The 3rd movement is like a bobsled ride down a mountainside. Reiner and Heifetz capture as well as I have ever heard the challenge response of soloist and orchestra that Tchaikovsky must have heard behind his ears when he was writing this piece.

Highly recommended for any classical music fans out there. Right up there with "Kind of Blue" and "Blonde on Blonde", if you are looking for equivalents. I am saving my nickels to next buy the Van Cliburn performance of Tchaikovsky's 1st Piano concerto, again with Reiner and the Chicago Symphony. Made the same year that Van Cliburn won the Tchaikovsky competition playing that same piece. Another milestone recording.

I have some beefs about XRCD, not the least of which being that you are paying $30 and with the Heifetz recording all you are getting is 30 minutes worth of music. They are not exactly generous with the content, but then this is time capsule stuff, and it is, after all, a very special moment in time.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fever to Tell   Quite good, kinda modern chick punk with an avangarde indie feel.  

Electric Six - Fire   This is the coolest rock electronica/dance music!  Way different but it'll get you moving.

Guster - Keep it Together   A friend of mine is good friends with a band member so I picked it up.  A little too main stream, middle of the road rock music.  Having said that they do have some country feel with a twang instrument, think it might be a bango.

Title: Where do you buy your XRCDs?
Post by: SWG255 on 2 May 2004, 03:24 pm
Beebop, where do you buy your XRCDs? I assume if you're picking them up one at a time you are getting them locally, is that so? I'd sure hate to be nickel-and-dimed to death over single disc shipping costs on top of the already high prices for these things.

I'm thinking about picking up several of these discs, including the two you mentioned, the  "Also Sprach Zarathrustra" conducted by Reiner, and several of the jazz offerings.

Beebop, where do you buy your XRCDs?


Sw, I got this from the Canadian distributor for XRCD - May audio. They show up on the web as http://www.mayaudio.com/mayaudio/home.asp. Their invoice shows them as 3390659 Canada Inc.. They are straight shooters as far as I can tell (be careful about dealing with numbered companies in Canada - if they do not establish a brand, how long are they here for?), and they seem to be the XRCD approved distributor for XRCD recordings in Canada. I paid $C 45 for the Heifetz (O I am not worthy!) performance. They told me that they would give this to me as an introductory deal but that in the future they would add $5 for shipping and charge me $C 50 per CD.

I bought the Heifetz CD for the performance, and not for the work. You can find many good performances of the D on CD. I think this is an afficianado reproduction.

I am not sure what marketing space JVC wants to occupy with this technology. Early indications are that it is the high audiophile. Consider that you can get Gene Ammons' "Boss Tenor" in 20 bit K20 from www.fantasyjazz.com, as well as in XRCD from the JVC site www.xrcd.net. I have both on order and I intend to do a shootout.

I believe that XRCD's value proposition rests with the performance as well as the work. It currently seems to reside squarely in the 2 channel audiophile world. Whether they view this as an entry point or are going to take a stand here, I do not know.

For my money, it is all aboot the performance, and I do not mind paying a premium for the quality that XRCD provides; again, I am talking aboot a very good rendition of a quintissential performance.

In terms of the marketplace, the Canadian distributor is charging for delivery while the American is not, and they are charging more than the central bank exchange rate would justify. For Heifetz and Van Cliburn, I am happy to pay. For Gene Ammons, I am not so sure. But then, I have not heard either the 20bit or XRCD version of either.

Just picked up Eric Clapton's new CD, "Me and Mr. Johnson" - it's his best effort in years.  It's Clapton's tribute to delta blues legend Robert Johnson.

It isn't Layla, but Clapton's finally getting back to some blues.  Music is toe tapping, decent guitar work, and the sonics are really wonderful.  This is also out in 200g vinyl from Classic Records & Reprise is issuing on regular weight pressings as well.

  Electronic music single with four versions of a really cool song.
Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the Moon
    A referance cd every audiophile should have
Kodo- Live at the Acropolis
  Japanese Taiko drums-Not as musically engaging as I hoped but still interesting. Need to really crank the volume on this since the recording levels are low compared to other cd's. Good workout for speakers, really works the low end spectrum.
Gus Gus- T-World
  ambient,techno electronic- two good tracks the rest rather disappointing, but listenable.
Jean Michel Jarre- Oxygene & Equinox
   Two of the three classic analog synth music that made Jarre a household name. The third being Magnetic Fields, I have both on LP, wanted the cd's.

New one, can't think of the name.  
Listened Saturday, sounds great.
They have a way of deconstructing a song into parts so that you hear each of the pieces very distinctly, and Margo's voice holds it all together.
Bought at Borders with bonus disc including their versions of Thunder Road (BS), Darkness Darkness (JCY), Helpless (NY).  Worth the price of the CD alone.

On CD:

Wilco "A Ghost Is Born", this is an excellent disc, at least as good as "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot".

Jesse Malin "The Heat", I haven't made up my mind about this one yet, the guitar playing is good, but I'm not to crazy about his vocals and lyrics. I bought it "on a flyer", so I didn't know what to expect.

Dick Dale "Better Shred than Dead", I needed some surf music to take to the beach!

On SACD:

Sting "Brand New Day", better than the redbook CD soncially by a wide margin.

Dianna Krall "Girl in the Other R0om", terrific music and sound!

Richard and linda Thompson "Shoot Out the Lights", a classic disc, even better on SACD soncially.

Haydn - The complete Symphonies
Conducted by Adam Fischer
The Austro-Hungarian Haydn Orchestra


33 cd's!!!!  Damn this is a lot of Haydn.  But I have to say that it was absolutely worth the cost.  Fischer plays the music with much more emotive dept, more panach, and more polish than my other set of Haydn symphonies performed by Dorati.  Dorati ends up making Haydn sound too "cheerful" to me, where Fischer balances the wit, beauty, and sophistication of Haydn with a feel for the deeper emotive currents underneath the surface charm.  For the most part these are all great recordings and a LOT of really beautiful music.

Paul Barrere & Fred Tackett Live From North Cafe
As I occaisionally do, I bought this CD based on a track I heard on the radio - "Old Folks Boogie". It is a pretty decent acoustic version of the Little Feat tune. This whole album is live acoustic versions of Little Feat songs. Its OK, but like so many electric guitarists, their acoustic chops are not quite what they could be with a little more practice. The sound man also put too much of that 'tizz' sound from the pick-uped strings in the mix. Sigh

After being entralled by Fischer doing the early and middle Haydn Symphonies to perfection, I was very disappointed with his rendition of the late symphonies (big, slow, heavy, and boring).  So I picked up both Juchum and the London Philharmonic, and Bruggen with the Orchestra of the 18th Century, doing the last 12 "London" symphonies (93-104).  I like them both, they are certainly better than Fischer.  Jochum is still perhaps a little bit to much "large" sounding, Bruggen more immediately appealing due to his lighter and more incisive performances.

Will have to check out the new Dr. John, but speaking of Mac Rebennac, how about the Rhino Handmade reissue of Doug Sahm's first two solo albums? Just got the two disc set, "Doug Sahm and Band" and "Texas Tornado," featuring Doug Sahm, Bob Dylan, Dr. John, Bob Dylan, David Bromberg, David Fathead Newman and others.

This is a live-in-studio sound that can't be beat. The reissue cleans up the sound of my well-worn records that date back to when he blew me away in a college concert. Typical wonderful Rhino job with liner notes, etc. Lots of added tracks, all of which are good, stuff that could have been included but there was simply no room on the vinyl.

Limited release of 5000, mine is 3000 something, pick it up before they're out at rhinohandmade.com, "The Genuine Texas Groover," unparalleled mix of country, blues, tex-mex, rollicking rock and roll.

Don't wait for them to be sold out--Television Live is no longer available (glad I got mine!)

Title: The Bad Plus
Post by: jakepunk on 12 Aug 2004, 02:51 am
The Bad Plus (http://www.thebadplus.com) - "These are the Vistas" and "Give"

I saw a writeup of this piano-bass-drum jazz trio in Stereophile or TAS (I forget which), and I decided to check out what all the fuss was about.  When I saw both of these CDs at the used CD store, I picked them both up.

I am impressed.  The writing and playing are fantastic.  In general, I shy away from "modern jazz" because it gets too close to Philip Glass territory, and it usually takes me many listening sessions before I warm up to something that's outside my normal repertoire.  But not so with The Bad Plus.  I was immediately drawn to this music.

The best way I can describe their music is "Dave Brubeck meets Morphine".  They're known for their covers of such staples as "Smells like Teen Spirit", "Heart of Glass", and "Iron Man".  But I think they really shine on their original compositions where they show off their chops.  It would be a mistake to think their only talent is jazz covers of rock songs.

Their second release, "Give", didn't get as good reviews (http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/b/bad-plus/give.shtml) as their big-label debut, "These are the Vistas", and I tend to agree that "Give" doesn't have as much energy as their first release.  I also think "These are the Vistas" sounds better from a recording standpoint.  If you only wanted to buy one CD to check them out, I would recommend "These are the Vistas".

The Bad Plus is probably old news to many of you since they really "broke out" in 2003, but  I am happy I now know about this group.

I really love this album.  Too bad not too many people seem to know it.  I find it easier to listen to from start to finish than Norah's first album.  I have listened to her current album many times in the store -- I've tried to like it but I find myself getting bored quickly.

My favorite new music, though, is my old music.  I've loaded about 4 Gb of music from my CDs to my iPod.  The Party Mix function is awesome!  I am hearing great songs that I had not bothered to play in ages.  I do delete songs that I don't care for (no need to keep the entire album since I have the Cd anyway).  Awesome stuff.  I am thinking of connecting my laptop (which has iTunes and, therefore, a copy of everything on my iPod) to my home stereo -- there is separate thread in the Empirical Audio forum re installng a USB adaptor into a Monarchy Audio DIP and then connecting that to the DAC of your home stereo).  Sorry if this is OT but sometimes I think the best new stuff is old stuff that you had forgotten about.

Scriabin - Complete Piano Sonata's

Got this as I was never 100% satisfied with my other sets of Scriabin Sonatas performed by Hamelin and Ashkenazy.  I figured since I liked Szidon's performances of the Liszt Hungarian Rhapsodies so much this would be a good bet.  Boy was I ever right.  Szidon just nails this music.

Junior Brown - Down Home Chrome

Junior Brown covers so many different genres on this Telarc disc: western, boogie, blues, jazz, and even rock.  His "aw shucks" Southern demeanor belies the fact that his axework is smokin'!  I think this CD captures the essence of his live performances.

Geri Allen - The Life of a Song

Stereophile recommend this disc highly, and I love jazz trio, so I decided to check it out.  Rounded off to the nearest thumbs-up or thumbs-down, I give it a thumbs up (with the exception of track #1).  The first song drives me nuts.  Allen uses dissonant chords to imitate an African stringed instrument called the kora, and it grates on my nerves.  The rest of the tracks are more to my liking.  

Cake - Pressure Chief

I love Cake.  It's intelligent Pop.  There are great bass grooves throughout this disc, and there's a lot more synthesizer than in previous releases.  You'll recognize a lot of Vince Clarke-inspired Erasure-esque synth arpeggios.  The recording engineering is really good, too... much better than you would expect from your average Pop CD.

Jamie Cullum - Twentysomething
Jamie Cullum - Pointless Nostalgic


Jamie Cullum sings as if he has more wisdom than your average 24-year old.  Cullum is more the center of attention in Twentysomething, whereas the ensemble in PN dilutes his contribution.  I prefer Twentysomething, but they're both good.

Depeche Mode remixes 81...04 3-CD Limited Edition set

I am an unabashed DM fan.  Yes, you're paying money for remixes of stuff you already have, but it's fun!

Dirty Dozen Brass Band - Funeral for a Friend

I got this one to console myself after my cat died recently.  The contrast of the stark black-and-white images in the liner notes with the joyous gospel playing illustrates the sadness of death and the celebration of life.

How do you like it?  I've had it about 6 months, and it was all new music to me.  Personally I really like the 1st & 3rd, kinda like the 5th & 6th, and am not too keen on the 2nd & 4th.

I recently picked up Shostakovich - Complete String Quartets performed by the Manhattan String Quartet.  I'm still evaluating the performances (mostly postively impressed), but I can say without question that these are the best sounding recordings of string quartets I've heard, maybe the best recording of anything.  You really get a sense of the physical presence of the instruments, and it adds a lot of realism to the proceedings.

Fantomas - Delirivm Corda
(yes, it's supposed to be a V.  Ain't it artsy?)
(http://www.audiocircle.com/circles/galleryimage.php/albun01/delirivm_corda.jpg)

I highly recommend this CD as a new addition to your "killer bass show off" collection.  This has some of the deepest tones I've ever heard.  Don't even bother with this one unless you have a subwoofer.  I mean it, unless you can get some serious air moving it just ain't gonna be as much fun to listen to.

It's quite a departure from "Director's Cut" in that there is very little 4-piece band segments and the majority of it is like a dark ambient soundspace kinda thing.  As ridiculous as it may seem, this record was actually frightening to listen to, at least for the 1st time through.  Turn off all the lights, make sure that sub is fired up and get your buttocks ready for 79 minutes of creeping terror!  It is truly a hi-fi delight with big dynamic range, spatial effects, and of course some of the most subterranian bass I ever heard.  It's difficult to describe all the sounds on here (perhaps it is what goes through one's mind on an operating table) but at 25:00 into it there is a segment where somebody is twirling a long rope or something.  It was like you could actually FEEL the subsonic pressure of that whirling rope against your body.  Like I said, it is a very frightening album with lots of sonic jabs that'll make you flinch.

Their first two albums are probably too much crazy grind noise for the average audiophile punter, but this one I would think anybody could get into.  If this album isn't a case for sitting alone in your darkened listening room with earnest concentration then I don't know what is! :)

Besides, it's got THREE diacritics in the title! :rock:

Bought Nick Cave's Abattoir Blues / Lyre of Orpheus[/i] recently. It is a 2 CD set, with Abattoir Blues containing the louder, grittier songs, and the the slower, ballad tracks residing in the Lyre of Opheus.

In particular, I love the track, "The Lyre of Orpheus."

Orpheus sat gloomy in his garden shed
Wondering what to do
With a lump of wood, a piece of wire
And a little pot of glue
O Mamma O Mamma

He sawed at the wood with half a heart
And glued it top to bottom
He strung a wire in between...


The chorus is "Oh, Mama!" In the beginning, the chorus sounds strained, strange and awkward. Later it sounds funny as Cave continues with his parody of the classical tale of Orpheus.

Orpheus went leaping through the fields
Strumming as hard as he did please
Birdies detonated in the sky
Bunnies dashed their brains out on the trees
O Mamma O Mamma


In the end, Cave attenuates his voice and transforms it into a lament of sadness. This album is definitely better than his previous release, "Nocturama."

One of my housemates picked up Eminem's Encore[/i] at 12 AM at Towers Records this morning (there was a long line for it!). It is also a 2 CD set. Hmm... maybe there is an upside to the social phenomenon of MP3-trading and ripping after all--artists and record companies have to work harder to pack more value into their albums. The insert for this album, for example, is more like a beautifully printed booklet with glossy colored photographs and lyrics than a simple fold-out with the song list.

I must admit that Encore is funny. (This is coming from someone who generally doesn't care for rap). In an interesting parallel to Nick Cave , who took an ancient Greek myth and talked crap about it, Eminem took current events and celebrities and talked sh*t about them. It is incredibly funny, and when one takes the lyrics apart and examines them, there is a method to his madness (apologies to Polonius :lol: ). By the way, in the section where Eminem is talking to the police officer, he does it with a very thick Middle Eastern accent. Talk about politically incorrect! :lol:

Mary Kate and Ashley used to be so wholesome*
Now they getting older, they’re starting to grow bum-bums
I go to the movies and sit down with my popcorn
Police saying, FREEZE... DOING DOING DOING
What do you mean freeze? JEEZ I just got my seat
I have ticket, look I put away, my zipper’s zipped
Please do not remove me from this movie theatre, please
I did not even get to see Mary Kate’s shower scene
I didn’t mean to be obscene or make a great big scene
And don’t treat me like I’m Pee-Wee Herman
This movie’s PG, Mr. Office, I demand to see my attorney
I will simple plead innocent, cop a plea, and be free
Free, yes free, right back on the streets
What you mean my lawyers with Michael, He’s too busy?
I am Triumph, Britney Spears has shoulder’s are like man
And I could say that and you laugh cause there’s a puppet on my hand

The way you shake it
I can’t believe it, I ain’t never seen an ass like that
The way you move it, you make my peepee go DOING DOING DOING
Hilary Duff is not quite old enough so I ain’t never seen a butt like that
Maybe next year I’ll say ass and she’ll make my peepee go DOING DOING DOING


In the end, I think the joke is on the consumer because here is a young adult who is making millions by fronting and talking smack, and legions are making him a multi-millionaire for it.

I also came across Voltaire when I picked up a music sampler by Projekt. The man is incredibly funny. His lyrics are even creepier than Nick Cave's Murder Ballads.  It is all the more creepy when he sings them to unbelievably beautiful melodies and violins (lots of violins). The melodies are incredibly seductive and sound light-hearted. You find yourself singing along to them without thinking about the contents of the lyrics, and it is only later that you realize... "Wait a minute! What the hell am I singing? OMG! That's sick and just wrong!" I realize Halloween is over, but Voltaire is just incredibly funny. Unlike Cave in Murder Ballads, where his persona is clearly serious, in Voltaire's songs, the artist comes across as mocking the very genre he hails from (i.e. Goth)--which only renders the listening experience all the richer (and funnier):

Two examples:

Ex Lover's Lover

I wait for the day when I finally defile
the bodies of my x lover's lovers.
I'll pile high to the sky
the bodies of my x lover's lovers
Die die die die die die
die die die die die die die
watch them die.

I saw you with him. You looked so happy.
All of that can change, cause i am so lonely
and I have lots of time to send you straight
to the Devil. I'm taking my time
to plan your demise.
What if I were to cut you up and mail each part
to a different town? It would take the most
brilliant private eye the rest of his life
just to put you together.
a piece in each mailbox all over the planet
from Moscow to Tokyo to Guadalajara.



Dead Girls (don't say "No")

I don't expect you to understand me
I'm not an ordinary man
and I have seen things with these eyes
you'd never comprehend
see for yourself now
take those living women
they have never shown me any kindness of any kind
its not my fault i look this way
I try to talk to them
they look at me and walk away
so really is it so strange that

dead girls like me
can't you see?
only dead girls like me
oh, dead girls like me
can't you see?
only dead girls don't walk away from me
sad as it seems

have you ever tasted love like this?
cool and smooth have you ever been accepted unconditionaly?
have you ever loved someone who didn't hurt you, didn't harm you?

There's no pain and there's no pressure
no humiliation
there's no fear and there's no shame
there's no pulse now is it so strange?

Title: Latest music you've picked up...
Post by: Lost81 on 5 Dec 2004, 07:36 am
More software for my aural nervosa...

The Thin Red Line - Soundtrack - Hans Zimmer
 - An interesting change from the usual war movie soundtracks. This time, Zimmer's treatment is quieter and more sparse, as opposed to his usual trademarked Wagneresque approach of overwhelming pomp (e.g. "Gladiator," "Black Hawk Down," etc). Think of this as a companion to Nick Glennie-Smith's excellent score to "We Were Solders."

Millennium Actress (Sennen Joyu) - Soundtrack - Susumu Hirasawa
 - Satoshi Kon does it again. 3 treatments of this excellent anime film's melodramatic main score, each done in a different manner. Think of this film as the anime companion to Akira Kurosawa's motion-pictures. By the way, this is the other film that shared the 2001 Japan's prestigious Agency of Cultural Affairs Media Arts Festifal Animation Grand Prize with Hayao Miyazaki's "Spirited Away."

Symphonies Nos. 10 & 11 - Dimitri Shostakovich
 - Sparse, heavy, poignant Russian music. No. 10 in E minor op. 93 was used to evoke the Stalinist era after the death of the dictator in 1953. Symphony No. 11 in G minor op. 103 is a memorial and a lament for the peaceful demonstrators massacared in St Petersburg on the orders of the Tsar on 9th Jan 1905.

Das Lied von der Erde - Gustav Mahler, featuring the voice of Kathleen Ferrier
 - An incredible aural experience: experience terror, despair and finally hope through the incredible voice of contralto, Kathleen Ferrier, and tenor Julius Patzak.

Symphony No. 9 in D major - Gustav Mahler, conducted by Leonard Bernstein
 - Perhaps Mahler's darkest work: the entire symphony, from beginning to end, is focused on death. The last movement, with its deliberate slowness mimicking the awful process of dying (for those of us unfortunate enough to know what a death-rattle sounds like while standing helplessly by the bedside in a hospital ward) is absolutely terrifying.

The Best of Rachmaninoff - Rafael Orozco Philharmonic Orchestra
 - One of the greatest pianists of his generation, and the last great Russian Romantic composer in the tradition of Tchaikovsky. Nikolay Zverev, Rachmaninoff's master in the Moscow Conservatory, included such musical greats as Anton Rubinstein, Safonov and Tchaikovsky in his circle. Listening to "The Isle of the Dead" while drunk and a loaded gun within easy reach would be a very bad idea. On the other hand, if you worship Kurt Cobain, and desire a seat at his right hand...

Romeo and Juliet - Sergei Prokofiev, conducted by Seiji Ozawa, performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra
 - If you haven't been treated to a Russian composer's treatment of the Bard's play, then you don't know what you are missing. (Prokofiev also composed some music for "Antony and Cleopatra," but his role was incidental.)

Future Song - Cranes
 - The lament of a little girl's voice echoing from the depths of some abandoned steel mill. Discordant and yet melodic, disturbing and yet memorable, tragic and yet sweet. Dwell into this if you can appreciate the Italian concept of "contrasti" and possess an open mind.

Music from "The Thin Blue Line" - Philip Glass
 - It took 15 years and the attention of a small company, Orange Mountain Music, before the score to Errol Moriss's groundbreaking film is re-released without the annoying dialogues present in the movie (i.e. Nonesuch Records' 1989 release). This film is famous because it actually resulted in overturning the murder conviction of a young man named Randall Adams, who had already served 11 years for the murder of a police officer (in 1976)--which he didn't commit.

Bang on a Can: Music in Fifths / Two Pages - Philip Glass
 - Music for those of us with bad music taste and are acolytes of tautology... :violin:


:dance:

Oh, not at all, though I do listen to about 70% rock.  I just don't fool around wasting my time on audiophile schlock or crappy ass jazz that seems to proliferate among the high end audio set!  I was force fed classical as a youth and it grew on me later.  I've got a modest classical collection- maybe 200 LP's/CD's.  Perhaps about the same for jazz- though you won't find one F***** Diana Krall LP in my collection, but I do have Norah Jones first one on LP :oops:

Title: female vocals
Post by: mjosef on 14 Jan 2005, 09:11 pm
I figured my collection of late has been larking vocals. I tend to favor instrumentals, jazz, orchestral or world music... So I made a determined effort to add some more female vocals...here are a few I recently picked up. *Maria Antonakos 'four corners no walls' nice lush soprano reminds me of >*Sarah Brightman 'Classics'  and 'Harem' , *Patricia Barber 'Live in...France' this was a surprise, I really liked this cd, I don't own any Diana Krall(?) but I have seen her in concert once openning for Cassandra Wilson, and I thought Patricia B might be along the same, but she was quite good on both vocals and piano.Sheryl Crow 'The Best of', like they say a change could do you good. if Sheryl represents country, this would be my first country cd. Bjork 'Medulla' still getting used to this new Bjork's, I love her earlier stuff.
I have four disc coming soon: Enya 'the best of', *Dawn Upshaw 'Voices of light-Messiaen, Debussy & Golijov', Renne Fleming 'Handel', Etta James 'Blues to the Bone'.
If anyone has any other female vocalist/artist to recommend, comments are welcome. I liked all those I purchased, those I marked with an* were new to me and a pleasant surprise.

I haven't heard Barber's "Live in France" but have other CD's of hers; if you're interested in hearing Krall, there's the "Live in Paris" CD or DVD that might appeal to you (personally, I LOVE it, but I like all Krall).  One CD you might check out is Terence Blanchard's "Let Get Lost" since it's the trumpet player duetting with Krall, Jane Monheit, Cass Wilson and Dianne Reeves as well as doing some great instrumental tracks. Even if you don't like one of the particular vocalists, there are still the other tracks you might like. "Let's Get Lost" was one of the early albums avauilable on SACD.

hi All,

I think this is my first post on this forum, I have however learnt alot and gained an insight into the world of HiFi as a medium-term lurker.

I just picked up this album 'Bob Dylan - The bootleg series volume 1-3 rare and unreleased 1961-1991'

I am a newcomer to Dylans music (apart from the more famous and mainstream tracks) and these cd's were a revelation.  I have enjoyed a bit of a voyage of discovery through this series.  

Cheers,
Russ

"Miracle Mule" by the Subdudes.  The boys are back together and the music is good.  This was one of Stereophile's albums of the month recently, but don't hold that against them... :P

I've always enjoyed their minimalist approach to the eclectic mix of songs having blues, folk, rock and cajun influences.  I saw them about a year ago performing most of this album and highly recommend seeing them live if you can.

Also, I picked up Doyle Bramhall's "Fitchburg Street".  It contains great covers of R&B favorites in a Stevie Ray Vaughan manner.  His son, D. B. II appears on a few tracks playing guitar (that's the reason I bought it).  Good stuff on this one.

I'm having a little trouble getting into Wilco's Yankee...  I appreciate the music and recognize that it's good on a number of levels; maybe I'm just too old?  I'll keep listening though.

OTOH, I think I'm too young to fully appreciate the latest Crosby and Nash double.  Great sonics and wonderful harmonies occurring during tired, rehashed and half-baked song themes from 35 years ago.  After a few months of listening, it hasn't gotten better.

Post by: mjosef on 18 Jan 2005, 09:10 pm
I have one cd of Terence, old one from the early 90's.  I will check out the 'Lets get lost'. I just received the new Diana Krall and one by Jane Monheit 'Taking a chance on Love'.
Here is another batch of female artists/vocalists I just received:
Sandy Denny 'Anthology', Sinead O'connor 'Am I not your girl?', Sophie B. Hawkins 'tongues and tails', Joan Arden 'Happy', Sarah Vaughn 'Dreamsville'.

Living in the City has its perks, I was walking by the Virgin Megastore couple days ago, and decided to pop in and browse around...the bargin hunter I am, I gravitated toward the "clearance " rack, and lo and behold all the clearance cds were reduced to .99cents. Well ended up spending over forty dollars. The music selection run the gamut from classical to punk with a shattering of World and folk. In that buy I found a couple cds of female vocalist worth mentioning; one of a Spanish singer Maria Salgado 'Siete Modos de guisar las Berenjenas', very enjoyable music even though me no hablar espanol...and the other, Vince Benedetti meets Diana Krall 'Heartdrops', very good music, Diana's chops seem better then than now...I find her new cd 'Girl in the other room' too ummm safe(?), I lost interest before it ended...

I have so much 'new' music to listen to now...

I went on a spending spree and bought all of these CD's over the last few weeks:

Rockpile-Seconds of Pleasure (I've wanted it for about 20 years)

Elvis Costello-King of America (I bought it just for "Indoor Fireworks")

Mindy Smith-One moment More (nice, but a bit boring)

Emmylou Harris-Red Dirt Girl

Nick Lowe-The Impossible Bird (got it because I can't find "Rose of England" on CD for less than $30)

Johnny Cash-Live at Folsom Prison

John Abercrombe-Timeless (loved it on vinyl in '75, but TT is in storage)

Joe Henry-Trampoline (love the title track)

Jack Johnson-Brushfire Fairytales

Counting Crows-Hard Candy (bought it for the fabulous version of "Big Yellow Taxi")

Kings of Convenience-Quiet is the new loud

Rosanne Cash-10 Song Demo

Budgie-Bandolier (had it on 8 track in '75, dug it then)

Cake-Comfort Eagle

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds-Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus

How did I do?  :scratch:

Enjoy,

TIC,
I may have to agree with you on Mindy Smith's CD. I bought it after seeing her perform the title track and love that song and her remake of Dolly Parton's "Jolene".  But listening to the rest of the CD is not-quite-enthralling: it's "nice" as you said.

BTW, did you know that "One Moment More" (the song) is not the parted lover song that it may at first appear? It was actually written to her foster mother who passed away not that long ago.

I got a recommendation for this album in, of all places, a Michael Connolly novel--The Narrows, if your'e a fan--wherein the brooding hero listens to it and it helps him straighten out his head.  It's Lucinda Williams, World Without Tears.  I went out and bought it, listened to it, and love it. She goes way beyond what I've come to call the "He done me wrong song" genre, both musically and philsophically.

I think she is a real talent that is finally coming into her own.  "Blame it on me" is my favorite and is an HDCD which adds to the delight of this album.  She can flat out sing and I think her best is yet to come!!

Beethoven - Late Quartets performed by the Takacs Quartet.  Their strongest outing yet, better than even their excellent middle quartets.  3 CD's.

Chopin - complete recordings of Samson Francois.  Not for the faint hearted.  This is chopin taken to extremes, by a volatile pianist.  I like it a lot, despite the rather poor sound quality.  10 CD's.

Mahler Symphony #9, #6, #4, #3 all conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas.  Great, great stuff.  Slower than other performances, but MTT wrings every drop of emotion out of these pieces.  

Mozart Violin Concertos - played by Christian Tetzlaff.  My reference, beating out both Monica Huggett and Arthur Grumiaux.  Great sound, even better performances.

More Jack Than God - Jack Bruce (Sanctuary label - import)
Yep, JB of Cream.
At 62, Jack's still got the chops.
This one contains 14 tracks of inspired playing and vocals, with Jack at the helm of one of his tightest bands. Although this cd contains updated versions of Politician and I Feel Free, it rocks in a refreshing way. Lots of hand percussion, and of course, Jack's wicked bass lines.
Son Malcom also contributes. Good stuff, even if you're not a Cream fan.

George Winston - Linus & Lucy - The Music Of Vince Guaraldi - Solo Piano

Don Henley - Inside Job

Jan Garbarek/The Hillard Ensemble - Officium
This one might not be for everyone but I played it for the guy that turned me on to Martin Denny and he asked for a copy on the spot.  One of the most unique CD’s I own. It was recorded in a cathedral and this CD captures that venue very nicely. Below is a link to Officium at Amazon and a copy of their review.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000025IL0/qid=1122212211/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/104-8511867-5231953

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
What is this music? Fundamentally, it's an exploration of what happens when an improvisatory instrumental voice (saxophone) is placed into the world of early vocal music--which has elements of both improvisation and formal structure. In reality, it's an adventure in which the four male voices of the Hilliard Ensemble travel the 14th- and 15th-century territory of Morales and Dufay, visit the 12th century of Perotin, and roam even earlier ages of plainchant, accompanied by the always sensitive and tasteful--and often astonishing--saxophone improvisations of jazz master Jan Garbarek. Sometimes, these new melodies simply accompany; sometimes they transform the common--a routine minor chord, for instance--into a sublime, indescribable moment. The answer to the above question is easy--but it's different for each listener. --David Vernier

Lonewolf glad you like Martin Denny.

Jack Johnson's latest 3 cd's.


Its summertime, needed some summer-music.  These are excellent disc's to toss in the CD player and relax on the boat to (which I have tested repeatedly).  Pretty good quality, bass seems a bit extended on the latest JackJ release, though maybe just me.

I didn't start listening to this stuff until the mid 90's, but love it dearly.  Besides the oldies (Denny, Esquiviel, Lyman, Scott) there are some good new groups like Pink Martini, Typsy, Combustible Edison and Don Tiki.

A few others I will highly suggest based on your previous purchases.

Eva Cassidy - Live at Blues Alley

...if you are picking up Songbird and know anything of her history, this is a must-have.  You can really hear her modesty and nervousness as she belts out some very personal songs.  ...something they cut from her studio-released stuff.


Jack Johnson - On and On
Jack Johnson - Brushfire Fairytales

...again, if you are picking up one, and want to hear his development as an artist, listening to these in order really give you a heightened view of where his head was throughout it all.  ...plus is just makes darn good summer-time tunes.

Aside from that, sounds like you are getting a good span of tunes going.  That Counting Crows is a must-have, as well as Dave's "Crash".  Enjoy them!

To everyone else:
I picked up the new one from Gorillaz, Demon Days.  If you liked a couple of their old songs, this new one will rock your world.  Much more range, each song is drastically different.  More of the songs have an actual message than the first.  Much cleaner recording than their first, main vocals are less "muted" with lots "air-ey" background vocals, including a children's chior for one or two tracks.  If you system puts out into the mid 20's, you'll appreciate how much more controlled the bass is, as compared to their first release.  A bit more electro-rock than a majority of you listen to, but as a pop and rap hater, it had just enough of what I needed to nab 9 tracks off to lossless (which is rare for me to take that many from a single CD).

New Pornographers are great, I have the new CD & LP on order. They are on tour right now!!

First two albums are great. The mastermind is AC Newman and his solo album is also one to pick up. Truly unusual pop! And nothing "dirty" about them, although it's hard sometimes to tell people how much you like them because of the eye-opening name.

Good reviews on popmatters.com and pitchforkmedia.com.

You'd also like the Shins and Rogue Wave if you like NP.

Tristan Prettyman - The Love EP

(http://www.tristanprettyman.com/images/loveep_cover.jpg)

Link (http://www.tristanprettyman.com/music.php) to her music page.
Scroll down to her first CD.  She released it when she was 20yrs old, really really good stuff.  The tracks I considered noteable (and thusly ripped to lossless to be replayed forever and ever) are as follows:

"Evaporated" A little up-beat comparatively, toe-tap inducing, beware.
"Guest Check" Something in her voice in this one makes me think "Fiona?"
"Void" A very intimate sound to it, vocals sound a little more "raw" to me.

Well... as I was coming through the line at my local Disc Exchange, this one was in a small stack on the checkout counter with a smudged price tag, couldn't make it out for sure.  "This isn't really under a buck, is it?"  When the attendant said yea, I tossed it across to him to ring up as well.  ...didn't expect much out of it, but its been playing nonstop for a week now.  In addition, just now I checked her webpage, and she's got a new one out.  In addition to that, I just found out she's coming to town next month!  Doesn't get much better from a little-known female vocalist.

Chris,

I really like a couple of your selections:

      Roland Kirk - "Kirk In Copenhagen"

      Ramsey Lewis - "Finest Hour"

Both of these are pretty heavy in my rotation these days (both at home in the big rig and in the office via my iPod).

If you don't already have them, these are also darn good:

      Roland Kirk - "Domino"

      Ramsey Lewis Trio - "time flies" and "The In Crowd"

I picked up a copy at K-Mart for $9.99 . I've seen it all over the net for $8.99-$10.99 . Only listened to it once through but it's a rockin' guitars & drums record with a few ballads thrown in , probably their best since the late 70's . I don't know if any of these songs will become classics but they sure do sound good now .

You guys must be youngsters if you are just now discovering Ramsey Lewis "The In Crowd".  This was popular on Verve in the mid 60's when I lived in the N Jersey area.  Another great is the MJQ live at Carnegie Hall.

Hershey, let me know how the Simple Minds CD is.  I've always liked those guys.  

I just ordred two more A Perfect Circle CDs and two more Porcupine Tree CDs as I recently discovered that I love their music - progressive rock isn't dead (Dream Theater sucks, I don't care what anyone says - souless primadonna BS).  The new Mars Volta was backordered - they show promise.  I also, for the Spanish enabled, bought Ekhymosis which was Juanes' (Juan Esteban Aristizabel) band before he went solo and swept the Latin Grammies (justifiably so).  Four more to go there.  For those that want to venture into Latin rock, get Fijate Bien or Un Dia Normal by Juanes, but skip the new one which sounds like it was a huge disappointment and sounds like it was written for him.  Maybe one good song on that one.  The rest bite.  But at least translate the lyrics as that is part of what makes the music special.

I really loved Deadwing- in fact, it's probably slightly better as an album than In Absentia.  I also bought the latest Sigur Ros CD a few days ago but haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.

My introduction to Death Cab For Cutie was Transatlanticism, which I just picked up earlier this week.  A very good album, IMO.  I'll have to check into some of their other stuff.

Rob, I just ordered Deadwing based on In Absentia.  What are these other two bands?  Progressive?  Anything to which they can be compared?  Always looking for great new stuff.  I found a site that does nothing but sell world-wide progressive music.
Title: Latest music you've picked up...
Post by: Rob Babcock on 26 Sep 2005, 03:30 am
I frankly couldn't even tell you what the hell Sigur Ros is. :lol:   Their music mixes classical, new age and just flat out weirdnes.  The vocals are a made up language the singer calls "Hoplandic", and the music is intricate, glacial and hypnotic.  Either they defy catagorization or I just don't know enough catagories!

Death Cab for Cutie would have to be called indie rock, I guess.  They have a few songs with a bit of a college radio/emo sound, but many of their songs remind me a little of Beck (not exactly the sound but the mood of Sea Change).  Maybe someone else could describe them better.

Porcupine Tree is one of my favorites of recent years.  I've only got their last two, and of those one I have just on DVD-A.  The surrounds are very well utilized, and in the case of Deadwing the DVD-A version leaves the CD for dead.  

If you like your prog with a harder edge, you might like Magnitude 9.  I think their last couple of CDs are better than Dream Theatre's by a wide margin.

Emiliana Torrini - Fisherman's Woman

Both come highly recommended.  Torrini is Finnish-Italian and sings in English.  This album is mostly acoustic and showcases her lovely voice.  Peyroux sounds like an old time jazz singer - think Billy Holiday crossed with Dinah Washington.

Heard this now. Extremely odd, even odder than _Evening Star_. Equtorial is vaguely like something you'd expect to hear in _Myst_, except, well, much less mainstream. The sort of thing you might play in a dark room with a candle, and at the end you'd look out the window to make sure it was still planet Earth out there.

Heh, yeah, DARK AMBIENT

The Disc that the term DARK AMBIENT is credited to is:

Lustmord : HERESEY

Matter of fact, old B.Lustmord came down the same path as Eno, he is a soundguy for film first, artist second.  He has a bunch of releases but that one is the best and has recently been reissued.

samples: http://www.sleepbot.com/ambience/page/lustmord.html

(http://www.coldmeat.se/imgs/%7Bf569029e-74d7-48dc-89ab-336c4db181f5%7D.JPG)

another recent dark ambient disc that is superb

Troum & Yen Pox : Mnemonic Induction

Try those out and lemme know what you think.  Heresey was actually recorded in 'caves, crypts and catacombs'.  The spaces and their echos are a large part of the recording.  

The Troum & Yen Pox has tons of low end.  Great Halloween music both of them & damn near perfect examples of the genre.

Post by: mjosef on 25 Oct 2005, 04:15 pm
Latest 8 CDs I got this week.
1. Telepopmusik, 'angel milk', a real surprise, a dreamy musical trip kinda reminds me of Bjork. I am puzzled by the gap of silence at the end followed by softly spoken words then silence again.
2.Wayne SHorter 'Beyond the sound barrier', I have heard him live the last three years at the JVC jazz festival, so no real surprise here, a top notch band.
3. Drew Gress '7 black butterflies', another surpise having never heard of him/her(?), there is no pictures of the players or even any liner notes. But very good sounding acoustic bass throughout. I need to find out more about this band.
These I haven't yet gotten to:
4. Paul Motian with Bill Frisell and Joe Lovano 'I have the room above her'
5. Down to the Bone 'Spread love like wildfire', I have a couple of their earlier cds.
6. Charles Lloyd 'Jumping the Creek', This should be good, Geri Allen is listed on piano.
7. LSO 'Shostakovich SYmphony No5, a live date with the LSO, a SACD hybrid.
8. Dove 'Some cities', not sure if this is rock, could be.

I just picked up the Vinyl of "The Jazz Singer" by Neil Diamond. Let me just say..... There is a reason he is the greatest entertainer of all time. The people doing the instermentals are very professional, and obviously are show casing his voice and lyrics. Not that I have any complaint about the almost robot like, but pleasent instermentals, they sound how they should. I have to say having Neil Diamond on Vinyl makes all the difference, his voice really is great, and I have never heard it like this on CD. I think a CD is a waste of time for Neil Diamonds powerful voice, this is definatly an event where digital does not have the range to really display what makes his voice special. I like all the songs on the album, I got no idea what the "Robert E. Lee" song is about though. I really enjoy "Hello Again", such a great song.

Post by: Folsom on 3 Nov 2005, 03:02 am
I actaully picked up a couple Vinyl albums lately so... (yeah you all probaby have or have had)

Run DMC - Crown Royal. I have always liked Run DMC, and yeah they are still Kings (who is left). It has a lot of guests in it. I still enjoy it though, they obviously have some mixing talent. They seem to mix or simply have instermentals. While I have no idea how it was recorded in the studio, the vocals are definatly a lot better then a CD would be for me.... I will still say I should of just got some of their original stuff, I am not to terribly impressed with this album. I enjoy it, but it most certainly does not hold a candle to their original work. I might just get rid of it.

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Bayou Country. I love CCR, and on vinyl they are magical. The guys definatly have a little more insterment talent then given credit for, and the lead singers voice is much more emotional then I experience on original non-remastered CD's. When they recorded this stuff back in the day, it was obviously ment for vinyl and never for CD (not that they knew what one was even). I plan to pickup more CCR Vinyl. While I saw Creedence Clearwater Revisited in Sturgis this year, the original band is still amazing, and the vinyl gives a new prespective on it. I thought nothing would touch the only two origianl member band, in concert, after listining to the CD's. I was certainly wrong. Any one who can say all their stuff sounds the same, well that is the unfortunate non-remastered interpritation you will probably get.

Eric Clapton - Just One Night. I like this one, I am just a plain old Eric Clapton fan, and yes it has the song Cocaine haha..... I guess this one was live, in Tokyo in 1979. Even if they all spoke Japanese, they sang with Cocaine. I still like his unplugged stuff way to much, which sucks cause there is no Vinyl of it...

Jethro Tull - Aqualung. Love this album (Thanks Dave), flute and tons of other insterments. They remind me of Black Sabbath when they go into some guitar riffs. The religious portions are good, not that I am comenting on my relgious believes, they most certainly is a bit of inteligence behind them. The vocals are rather thin though, I wish they where a bit louder.

Joe Cocker - Greatest Hits. Wow, the emotion this man puts into his music.... Yeah I know he does a fair amount of covers, I honestly could not care any less that he does, or about the originals. If he thought it need to be redone, it came out better. I wish I had a Vinly copy of his new album of stuff that inspired him. It is very professionally done, however it lacks serious quality in the recordings of vocals. This Vinyl piece, does not. There is no way to down talk "You are so Beautiful" and "With a Little Help From My friends" etc...... When you judge musical vocals, if emotion is more important then talent as many people believe, this guy is what you want. I plan to buy more albums of his, but what can I say, his greatest hits are damn good. I however need to find some Vinyl that includes Sandpaper Cadilac, I like that song a lot.

The Police - Ghost In The Machine. (Thanks Dave) This album reminds me of Pink Floyd a little bit, but with more blatant lyrics. The instermentals are definatly not that of Pink Floyd, they are not telling a story, they are fit to the music, chorus, etc, while they are mind blowing (pretty fair guitar, simpler on drums), they fit the lyrics, and just make the song. I do enjoy the lyrics, they are good, the vocals while I can not say any thing bad about them, I will say that many remind me of what they are, pre - 80's high pitched rock voices, but calmer.
Title: WFMU Record Fair...
Post by: mjosef on 6 Nov 2005, 04:52 pm
Back in the 70's a buddy of mine was a fan of Joe Cocker, he would always play his music every time I visited. A real soulfull singer.
Yesterday I stopped by the WFMU record Fair at the Pavilion on 18th Street, the annual fundraiser of the station, I picked up over 17 CDs @ $1. each, some sealed, some opened but all in darn good condition. Most of the Artists I have never heard of, but its a steal at the price. There are almost a hundred record dealers in there, I don't think I have ever seen that amount of vinyl in one place since the 80's. SOme of the LP's are pretty pricey too. I saw many out of print and rare albums. Its like heaven for a vinyl junky.
If you are in NYC, today is the last day of the Fair.
So far I have listenned to:
Greg Osby 'Channel Three', this is his latest I think, a trio format, sax, drums and bass. Jeff 'Tain' Watts has some pretty nice brush work on this disc. Matt Brewer on bass is very good, a young and upcoming bass player. The very first tune is Ornette Coleman's 'Mob Job', and the last tune on the CD is Miss Ann, an Eric Dolphy composition. A highly recommended disc, the recording is very crisp.
Eleanor Cory 'Of mere Being'. A classical composer's work for a variety of group formats, chamber ensemble, chorus and brass quintet, solo piano, duo of piano and viola.
Barbara Streisand 'Greatest Hits Vol.2' ...lol...her songs from the 70's...brings back memories...of the way we were...

Oh yeah, I support their effort thru the last decade. Since I moved to NYC from NJ 5years ago, I sometimes have trouble with picking up their signal, so my listenning has been sporadic lately. Its a great station, one of the very few with a freeform format.

Hello Music Lovers,

I just bought  "A Timeless Thing" - Classic Caberet/Jazz songs by Amanda McBroom and I am totally in love with it....

I got it here http://cdbaby.com/cd/mcbroom/

If this style of music is your cup of tea - You will be amazed at how the CD really sounds!!  :o
Title: Depeche Mode - Playing the Angel
Post by: jakepunk on 16 Nov 2005, 04:34 am
Depeche Mode - Playing the Angel

The first time I listened to this album, I thought I was going to chuck it into the Discard pile.  But after subsequent listenings, I really like it.

I thought DM's two previous releases, Exciter and Ultra, were lackluster.  They should have taken all the good songs from those two albums and released one album.  I had low expectations of Playing the Angel.  I have listened to DM since 1987 and had written them off in light of their last two albums.

This review (http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/d/depeche-mode/playing-the-angel.shtml) says it better than I can.  The best way I can describe this album is a cross between Violator and Songs of Faith and Devotion.  I could do without the acid/goth/scratchy noises, though.  My cat leaves the room whenever they come on.

Clifford Brown - The Difinitive Clifford Brown (very good CD).  Good score from the used CD store!
Morcheeba - Parts of the Process (best of) - kind of trippy laid back techno.  Took a chance on it at the used CD store.  I recently discovered Portishead, Zero 7, Massive Attack, etc., and this band is kind've similar.
Pulp - Different Class (while everyone in England seemed to be split over whether Oasis or Blur was the best band, Pulp (IMHO) was putting out the best mid-90's Britpop.  
Portishead - Dummy (I like this one a lot)
Massive Attack - Mezzanine (another sleeper)
Bass Outlaws - Illegal Bass - not really music, just bumpin' bass that makes the woofers jump and makes my house shake like an earthquake.  Fun CD!

Title: Recent Music Purchases
Post by: drewfidelity on 16 Nov 2005, 11:58 pm
As it so happens, I went to CD Warehouse this morning and purchased these three disks:

Beck Mutations-  I am a big fan of Sea Change.  A friend said that I would like this one as well.  I listened to it in the car and I did like it.  I will listen to it again tomorrow.

Genesis Duke-  I love this album.  My CD copy is scratched and they had this, newly digitally remastered, in their sale bin for $4.99.  On my way home I listened to this and was all smiles.  Brought me back to Freshman year college when I lived off campus and the 25 minute drive consisted of the first album side and the way back home was the other side.  Back from the day when I would tape my albums for car use.  

Coheed and Cambria IV-  I have heard great things about this band so I picked up this new release.  I will listen to it tomorrow in the car.

Vendetta Red - The Sisters of the Red
     I have to say I am really digging this album.  I am really not much of a fan of current "emo".  To me Emo happened a decade and a half ago in Portland, OR while Seattle was making the world aware of Grunge.  Bands like Sunny Day Real Estate & Jimmy Eat World had a pretty strong scene going in Oregon and northern California.  Nowadays, emo is another trend out of Long Island mostly with some similarities but quite a few differences.  Well Vendetta Red isn't all a bunch of whining like some of the new stuffs sounds to me, these guys can actually write melodies into their tunes.  Their is still the obvious modern day emo influences in their sound, but some kick backs to the original in my mind as well. The lead singer also has a decent voice, even if it is not super eccentric.  An interesting album to check out if you like emo at all.
Title: Latest music you've picked up...
Post by: JoshK on 22 Nov 2005, 01:12 am
Couple other recent acquisitions

The Wrens - Meadowlands
Neutral Milk Hotel -  In the Aeroplane Over the Sea  (NMH)

First, the Wrens.....bla!  Like lukewarm coffee, makes you want to spit it out.  Talk about boring music.  I don't even see this as the same genre as Radiohead let alone how it sounds anything like them.  A big bla by me.

Neutral Milk Hotel is not one that everyone will like, but gets a big thumbs up from me.  Really good writing (has all new music forgotten about melody?) coupled with some very intriguing acoustic work and some large doses of distortion from the electrical instruments.  Many big band instruments interject in the background adding a sense of color not all that often found in modern day indie.  Not particularly up tempo, but not as depressingly slow as Elliot Smith either.

P.S. didn't like Coheed & Cambria all that much, another "emo" band that is just so-so in my book.  Loved Beck's Sea Change and love his new Guero, will have to check out Mutations.

Funny thing, I was watching Death Cab for Cuties on SNL last night and saw the picture of the band that is standard for SNL to do.  I thought to myself that the bass player looked like a dude I went to high school with. I googled them this morning and sure enough, it was Nick Harmer who I sat next to in trig.  

I had emailed back and forth a couple times with Nick a few years back when I saw him on classmates.com.  He told me he was in a band and living in Seattle.  He had never mentioned which band.

Been on a cd buying binge lately, picked up the following within the last month:
Karen Ann 'Nolita', sweet soft vocals with a jazzy tingue.
Soweto Percussion Ensemble 'tales of the drum', drum talkers know this one.
Gerald Veasley 'live at the Jazz Base', I expected more, not enough variety for my taste.
Erik Truffaz 'Saloua', another take on the Milesian fusion slant of the early 70's.
Ahmad Jamal 'The Legendary OHEH & Epic Recordings', I like his touch on the piano and was hoping to recapture a listenning pleasure I had from the 70's of a live album I had that he did in a club somewhere in Chicago...
Keith Jarret ' Radiance', his latest live solo recording...could do without the polite obligatory applause, in fact could do without the pianist grunts and moans...good piano sound nevertheless.
Stereolab 'margerine eclipse', haven't opened this yet, hope its surprising.
Joshua Redman Elastic Band 'Momentum' ,still sealed, got some of his earlier efforts...read Stefon Harris on vibes, Meshell Ndegeocello on bass, Kurt Rosenwinkel on guitar and Nicholas Payton on trumpet...some great players backing up this cd, so should be good.

I also picked up about 18 cds in Los Angeles on my recent visit there a couple weeks ago mostly for less than $2. Most where used and a few were new, had them shipped. Should arrive within the next week.
Winter does make for lots of listenning time.

 Yes, I do listen to Marilyn Manson. There is something about this music that gets me going when working. I have a big place and usually alone most days. It has to be LOUD. You just have to be careful you don't head-bash into a glowing 805 tube on the work bench :guitar:  :rock:

Anoushka Shankar, 'Rise'...not yet listenned to...
Emiliana Torrini, 'Fisherman's Woman'. looks like folk-vocal, at least she has a cute face. nylt.
Ilona Knopfler, 'live the life'. Another pretty babe in the jazz vein. A few gems here, sings in French and English.

Finally recieved my shipment of bargain 'used' CD's purchased while I was in Los Angeles last month. Most of them were $1.99 or $2.99 and were further discounted 50%.

David Eastlee. 'Left COast Blues'. LA's resident bluesman.
Vince Watson. 'Moments in Time'. House/techno/electronica
Sonny Simmons. 'American Jungle'. A quartet with Simmons on alto sax, T. Shook on piano, Reggie WOrkman on bass, and Cindy Blackman on drums.
Patricia Barber. 'Verse'. This is the second cd I have of her music, and the recording is very good. I like her music too, more so than Khrall.
Art Ensemble of Chicago. 'Tribute to Lester'. this was $7.99, but I had to have it, great fan or AEC. There was once 5, now there are only 2...or maybe 3, not sure if Joseph Jarman has rejoined the group full time. Not every jazz lover cup of tea, I know, but they are/were something else live...every moment of their 'time' on stage was about the performance, music unknown known life. I remember seeing them live one time paired with David Murray all horn group(can't remember the name)...a music student next to me was writing down the notes(or something) during the Murray's group performance... the AEC came on next, one member came out ringing a bell, then was joined by another blowing a whistle, then picked up his upright bass and started a conversation with his bass strings, a couple minutes later Roscoe joined in on his sax, and the music continued uninterupted for the next 90 minutes...the the music student had long since put away the pen and folded up her note pad, and was lost in the experience. After the concert I overheard an older gentleman muttering to his spouse, '...they had no respect for the ...' , that just wasn't his daddy's bebop, I suppose.

Will list more as I listen to them.

Title: Todd Rindgren "Liars"
Post by: budyog on 20 Feb 2006, 08:51 pm
I got this cd a while back and it took about 6 listens to really start getting it. It is a parody on all the bullshit going on in the church, the goverments and the media. It is true Todd. There are bits that sound like old Todd and very new Todd. It is not for everyone, but that is Todd. His lyrics are great and the production is also great.
Then I got the DVD of the live show called "Liars". It kicks ass, A great band including Utopia fame Kasim Sultan on bass and the fabulous Prarrie Prince of The Tubes on drums. It is so good, that Todd deserves a star on the "Walk of Fame" and certanly in the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame for all the great stuff Todd has done in the music world. This DVD, I could see to be taken by some in this crazy world just like the cartoon that people are rioting over. They all wear different costumes representing institutions I have mentioned above. His voice is in top form and the list of song are a supereb chioce.
All instuments were direct into a computer and then to a PA and to DVD. The sound is very different for a live recording. Almost not live. If you are a Todd fan, buy it! This is just my opinion :|

Took a stroll around J&R complex today, checked out the Plamsa TVs, and the stereo section...and ended up in the music dept. and came upon a few cds in the used bins...even though the price was kinda steep @$8.each I had to have
Buddy Miles Express, hell and back. Produced by Bill Laswell, so I am hoping it rocks.

Steve Roach and Elmar Schulte,
Solitaire: Ritual ground.  My fav. ambiance electronica whatever artist.
The other three CDs were 'why not' @ $3ea...
Claude Chalhoub. a violinist from Lebanon... fusion of Arabian, Indian, classical and jazz music. A pleasant surprise.

Picked up volume 2 of the "Elizabethtown" soundtrack at amazon last week.  I wanted volume 1, but I refuse to buy the Sony hacker CD's.  I've never "pirated" songs before, but Sony's asseninity is making me want to do so...but only from THEIR label.   :nono:

Post by: mjosef on 9 Mar 2006, 12:21 am
Within the last week or so, I have picked up music from my coming of age period, the 70's...see if these ring any bells...
1. Joe Cocker, 'Mad dogs and Englishmen'. This is a newly reissued 35th anniversary 2-disc set. Man this brings back memories(mostly stoned out ones lol) like honky tonk women, cry me a river, the weight, lets go get stoned(uh huh), give peace a chance....wooohaaa.
2. Rainbow, catch the rainbow. I remember I had the 2LP set of their live recording, dunno where that is now...but I remember tripping out to that live concert. Richie Blackmore, wonder what ever became of him...
3. Robin Trower, bridge of sighs. Loved his guitar playing then, and he still sounds great hearing this cd today. The sound on this cd is very good, very clean and spacy.
Lastly I also picked up the Ultimate collection of Billie Holiday which consist of 2CDs+1DVD. The sound on the cds are pretty good, haven't seen the dvd yet.

For a live recording circa 1970, it sure sounds good, nice balance throughout, very clean, I love the rapport with the audience...Joe COcker's voice can emote so much emotion. There are several 'newly released' songs which did not appear on the original LP set, clocking in at 58 and 79 minutes, its a whole lotta classic rock to enjoy.

I can't stop listening to the 69 Filmore compilation. That has been my favorite year for some time now. Dirty,nasty and raw in contrast to the popular 1977 stuff.

Have to go along with you guys on the early Dead stuff.
In '69 the band had so much raw energy they'd loosed combining genres and busting out of California for some real touring...  So much promise of the future possibilities...I've got a 'boot' of my first show in february that year,
and it is still 'HOT'  :flame: , regardless of how primitive the recording technique.  Still clinging to 'Live Dead' as incredible live album for its time.
I'm real partial to that time in particular into the early 70's.  Pig's 'witnessing' with the blues seemed help keep the whole thing 'steered' in my mind.
Hey Zybar, are those download series you mentioned offa Dead.net?
I had not perused those before, though you got me thinking about DP33 and 35.  I quit buying the series in the late 'teens, as I wasn't fond of some of those selections and I felt like I was being 'bled'.

All that said, I just picked up Terrapin Station since I didn't have it on CD.
  :oops:
 :mrgreen:
It had been a while, so I figured I needed to get reaquainted.

Didn't mean to hijack the thread in a 'dead'ly direction, but ....
I don't care. Thanks for the ideas!

DeadFish

Picked up these four yesterday:

Derek Trucks Band - Songlines  - A great cd.  Trucks is simply a monster guitar player who has surrounded himself with great players and this is his best effort yet, IMO.  

Donald Fagan - Morph the Cat -  Like this one a lot too.  Sometimes hard to tell where Steely Dan leaves off and Fagan begins, the sound is very similiar.   Excellent musicanship as usual.  I like it almost as much as The Nightfly.

Dire Straits - On The Night - Early 90's live recording featuring good sound  quality and some great songs.  I only wish they would have included Sultans of Swing and Telegraph Road on the cd.  Then it would have been a perfect set.

David Gilmore - On An Island - This didn't grab me on first listen but maybe I just wasn't in the mood.  I gotta give it another listen or two because it seems to have some "grow on you" potential.

You can get them off Dead.net for the wopping price of 19.95 for FLAC. Which imho is highway robbery. Phish only charges 12.95 for most of thiers. On that note i highly recommend getting the "Island Tour" shows. Phish at their peak... :bowdown:

Post by: Terry Rossen on 30 Mar 2006, 06:50 pm
Hi,

I read a previous thread about Cure for Pain:

Morphine is great: A RykoDisc 15th Anniversary Sampler CD even has Morphine’s track #2 from Cure for Pain: Buena.

Music stuff from Terry:

Each year I am charge with setting up our demo rooms for DH Labs and also anyone that needs my help.  This job also allows me to sample a lot of new music and then bring the best to listen and turn folks onto at the Alexis Park suites...!

My 22 year old daughter is artistically/musically gifted and shares her latest listening picks with Dad. She does sound and lighting professionally.

I have also collected a lot of new music some that I'll list here:

Damien Rice: O
The one track give's chills; and the folks that visited our room loved it and wrote the info down each time it played.  It is: Volcano.

The 1998 Godsmack album is all good!  Each will rock you to your delight. Great drum sets and bass guitar.  Vocals are fantastic.

My friend Mark at Rogue Audio turned me onto Groove Armada's Lovebox...that's a head bangin', dancing and critical listening album.

An older Greg Brown CD has a cut that will take you away nicely from his 1994 album The Poet Game.  The track is #1; brand new '64 dodge.
His deep voice and guitar come through sweet and natural.  Nicely mellow.

I have been very happy with testing speakers such as the ACI Sapphire XLs we have used for the last couple CES: Yello's album Pocket Universe.
I am now another happy owner of a Rosewood pair of Sapphire XLs and the little Force XL Subwoofer combo.

Yes rock me!  I have the original 1970 Red Grand Funk Railroad album.  They were also known for their pop music, but they played psychedelically as Iron Butterfly back in the day. The old blues tune played by the 3 guys from Michigan (Grand Funk) is one of the finest moments of rock blues recorded in the '70s. It is their rendition of Inside Looking Out.  Seek out and rock on. Their bass, guitar, drums, vocals and harmonica are great. This one will take you on a trip down and up again.  It is a fine ride. The Japanese Toshiba release CD is great. The 24-bit re-mastered Columbia from 2002 is not bad. The original LP is best!  I’ll put that track on to stir my blood at our demo suite at CES, early in the morning just for me.

Here is a list put here for your consideration and comment.  I have not listened to these knowingly; my daughter suggested these as good enough to drive folks into my 2007 CES room:

Martina Topley-Bird
Kinnie Star
VNV Nation
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

Leave me messages if you have had the opportunity to listen to any of these 4 on the list!

Best to all,

Terry

PS
Now I have been in love with music all my life...over 55 now. I heard Leonard Bernstein live at the Young People’s Concerts at DAR Constitution Hall in DC each month when I attended elementary school.

BTW, my tastes are freakin’ all over the place.  I went to Woodstock and listened.  I had a great wet time.  I ate eggs and bacon with Wavy Gravy. I do remember most of the concerts.  We had a huge tent and campsite and big fire to dry out clothing, had a red barn to explore next door and a fresh water pump. I'm in Life magazine!

I saw the Allman Brothers at the Beacon just this past Sunday, and I gotta say that I came away quite impressed with Derek's guitar playing skills.  

The Allmans were a big favorite of mine back in their early'70s heyday when I was in high school, but that sort of high energy searing guitar virtuoso type playing is no longer my favorite.  I guess I'm mellowing out to more melodic type stuff as I age, as I don't really listen to it at home anymore.  But  I do enjoy the raw energy in a live setting, and he is certainly a master.  

When I listened to his solo stuff with the DT Band, I was quite surprised.....and impressed.  It is quite different from the raucous boogie of the Allmans, and very mature beyond his years.  Also surprising to me is that he plays without a pick....at least he didn't use one at the show.  Must be real tough (and rough) on the fingers!

Wonder how his wife feels about that. :lol:

The first time I saw the ABB was in 1971.  I think I've seen every incarnation since and this current lineup with Warren, Derek and Oteil on bass is eclipsed only by the original lineup.   I've had a long standing interest in Derek Trucks.  The first time I saw him was in '95, he was on a mini tour at the ripe old age of 15 (a reward for making good grades I was told by a friend that knows him).  He was touring as a trio with Allen Woody and, I think, Jeff Sipe on drums.  It was pretty clear even then that he was gifted.

Your right about the DTB being completely different from the work he does with the Allman Brothers.  I've had the pleasure of seeing them 4 or 5 times now (and I'm going again next Thursday  :D ) and it's almost a mystical experience the way the music flows form one song to the next. Once I saw them open with a 20 minute jam around the melody to Amazing Grace which morphed into Rastaman Chant, a reggae inspired tune and concluded with Coltrane's Naima.  And that was just the beginning of the show.  Later in the same show, Susan came out and sang a couple of songs with the band. This was before they were married.  I've never seen him use a pick (ala Hubert Sumlin) either.

Can't say I've mellowed in my old age.  I still love listening to a great guitar player tearing it up on the stereo and live (but live is best).

 ...


They are very good!  I've got tickets for their 9:30 Club show 4/8 in DC.

Yes, it is great guitar!

Well some day they will be finished, I just have not been able to find a wood worker.

Hey Philipp, this is my first cd with this artist so cannot compare with earlier releases. In fact I had never heard of Evan Parker until I came across this disc, and I am impressed with it... sounds like experimental music, right up my alley, I like music that challenges the mind. The sound is very good as are most ECMs...being on this label is what piked my curiousity. Now I have to check out his earlier works.

Well I'm glad you liked it! Evan is one of the giants of European free improv and has been recording since '68. You should check out this site http://www.efi.group.shef.ac.uk/ for more about him and others like him. Enjoy!

Thanks Philipp for the link, good reading. Maybe I did hear EP before with Derek Bailey but didn't know it.

During a recent search for indie music I came across indiejazz.com, needless to say I ended up spending some money.

1. Gregg Bendian's Interzone. A quartet with vibes, guitar, drums and bass, sounds fantastic, masterful playing by all involved.
2. Nels Cline/Gregg Bendian~Interstellar Space revisited; the music of John Coltrane.
3. Space~new music for woodwinds and voice+ an interesting Breakfast conversation. A trio of Roscoe Mitchell, Thomas Buckner and Gerald Oshita.
4. Other Dimensions in Music~NOW! A quartet, Roy Cambell Jr., Daniel Carter, William Parker and Rashid Bakr.
5. Roscoe Mitchell +Brus Trio~ after fallen leaves.
6. Daniel Humair~baby boom.

Highly recommended website for indie music.

On some truely rare occasions, I come across a bunch of LPs that someone 'threw' out, actually neatly stacked on the sidewalk...almost all classical, I took 21 and left about 3 or 4.
And visually the surface condition range from good to excellent, but a little dusty. There are about 5 RCA living stereo, plus labels like Angel, DG, Phillips, Capitol, Westminister, Decca...featuring the works of Dvorak, Brahms, Schubert, Rachmaninoff, Haydn and other well known composers.
THe one jazz LP: Sumi Tonooka 'with an open heart'. Sumi on piano, Rufus Reid on bass and Akira Tana on drums.

I left Wynton and T.T D'arby for another soul.

3. Total EUPHORIA mixed by Dave Pearce. 2Disc set.
4. Jazz records presents 'The Late Lounge'. 2Disc of sophisticated chill.

6. Grace Jones 'the collection'. Been a big fan of hers since way back in the last century. Nipple to the bottle, La vie en Rose, Feel up...classic GJ.
7. The story Of Vee-Jay, America's Premier Black Music Label. A 2disc collection of some of their greatest hits spanning the 50's, 60's and 70's.

Recently picked up the following on CD from Tower Records:

Pop/Rock:
Enya  Amarantine
Enya  Paint the Sky with Stars (Greatest Hits upto 1997)
Eagles  Hell Freezes Over (A well-recorded live album)
Mark Knopfler  Sailing to Philadelphia
Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris  All the Roadrunning
Pearl Jam  Pearl Jam (New Album - Okay, not great IMO)
Norah Jones  Feels like Home
No Doubt  The Singles 1992-2003

Classical:
Haydn  The Seasons (in English) with Sir Thomas Beecham conducting the Royal Philharmonic.  Beecham scored the work for a full orchestra.  Although the recording shows its age (recorded in 1956) it is still very lovely to listen to.  Excellent release on EMI and reasonable @ 2CD for <13$.


Cheers,

John

1. Moscheles~Complete Concert series /Pies Lane on piano. Stark clean piano recording by London native Pies Lane on the Hyperion label.
2. Vijay Iyer, Reimagining. THis has been way down in my que for the longest while, got bumped up to now when I heard him live with Rudesh Mahanthappa last month. He's got a nice touch on the piano.
3. THe John Scofield Band, Up all night. I like this version of John's music. I have always found his recordings somewhat...sterile, this one I really like, a balanced universal sound.
4. Mark Anthony Turnage/ John Scofield, Scorched. A meld of contempory classical composition with elements of big band jazz and small jazz trio. Initial listen(once) yielded mixed feelings, some things worked well, others felt...disjointed. Warrants further listenning.
5. Bela Fleck & the Fleckstones, Little Worlds. My very first exposure to B. Fleck, I have heard many recomendations/mention of him on this forum. This is a 3CD set, so far I have casually listenned to the 1st disc...mhnnn.
Title: Latest music you've picked up...
Post by: mjosef on 19 May 2006, 07:14 pm
Got these a couple days ago...

1. Prince, N.E.W.S. The Prince I would love to hear more of, jazz/funk instrumental
2. George Clinton & Parliament/Funkadelic. An Instant Live recording of their performance at the State Theater, Portland , ME on 3/19/04. I had heard of the technology of recording concerts live and having the discs hot off the burner available by the end of the concert for purchase, this is the first time I have actually seen/heard one of those disc. Sounds way better than what my own Sony walkman recorder could have ever done, typical (over)amplified 'live' sound with sometimes recessed vocals and other instruments and in your face bass/drums. Crank it up and close your eyes and ...its like you were there. Almost three hours, across 3 discs, of relentless live funk.
3. George CLinton & Parliament/Funkadelic, another Instant Live recording, this time at the Music Midtown Festival in Atlanta, Ga 5/1/04. 2-discs. Just in case one CD set is not enough.
4. Christian McBride, Live at Tonic. Recorded over two nights with both his regular band and some special guests dropping by like Jason Moran, Charlie Hunter, DJ Logic, etc. A 3-disc set.
5. Telarc Collection, Vol.1. Got this on recomendation posted by AC member(s). :D

I’ve been listening to Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris “ALL THE ROADRUNNING” when I first seen it I thought what a strange combo, Knopfler (ex-Dire Straits singer) with a country singer Harris (I’ve always liked Emmylou).

So after about the third time around with this new CD I’m so glad I picked it up, it does have a country sound to it though.

Have been avoiding work the last week or so...so been spending a lot of time rearranging the system...recently took delivery of a custom Jolida Signature 3205A( a Bill Baker creation), so have been racking up the hours on it...snucked out to J&R Music today and picked up the following discs.

1. E.S.T. ~somewhere else before. Read an article about this group some time ago, and recently ScottF posted spinning their latest in another thread. Jazz at the frontier.
1. Joe Henderson. A Milestone Profile series of musicians that recorded on the Milestone label in the 60's. All remastered in 24bit 'glory'.
3. Jeff Gauthier. ~one and the same. Got wind of this from a CryptoGramophone sampler. Gotta love the independant labels, they are the ones pushing the music outward and beyond. Jazz beyond bebop.
4. Bennie Maupin. ~Penumbra. Another fine album from the CrypoGramophone label.  Bennie and percussionish Daryl Munyungo Jackson were original members of Hancock's Headhunters. Very good sonics.
5. Cannonball Adderley Sextet. ~In New York. Recorded live at the Vanguard in 1962. Brother Nat on cornet, Yusef Lateef on sax, flute and oboe, Zawinul on piano, Sam Jones bass and Louis Hayes on drums. Top notch band.
6. Shirley Horn, ~You won't forget me. Lots of special guests, including Miles, Branford and his brother, Billy Hart, Buster Williams.
7. Eric Dolphy. Prestige Profile series.

Only one way to tell for sure, try it!  You can buy it used and sell it if doesn't meet your expectations...

Philosophically though, if my system were to prevent me from listening to the music I love, I would have to fix the problem or change some aspect within the system, but never avoid the music.  The music comes first!  Just one person's useless opinion....  :D

Just got these:

Joe Bonanamassa - You and Me - Latest from Joe. This guy just gets better and better
Walter Trout - Full Circle - Each song was co-written with a guest artist.  Great guitar playing here.
Joan Osborne - Righteous Love and Relish - I saw Joan with Phil Lesh and was very impressed so I had to try some of her solo stuff.  Me likey!
Paris Combo - Motifs - French band that combines swing jazz, latin rhythms, gypsy and probably some other genres as well.  It's all in French so I don't have clue as to what they're singing about but it sure is fun music.

Marvin Gaye's "Vulnerable"

Do yourself a favor, I mean really do yourself a favor.
Get this album, get the wine, dim the lights and by the time it's finished (30 mins)  you'll be headed for a special night, I promise, and she'll think you've still got some romance in those old bones.

I had owned this before but gave it too a friend in need.
I have NEVER met a woman who could resist some Marvin Gaye.
If yours can, divorce her while there's still time because there's a whole world you're missing out on  :thumb:

Ok, since you're an expert in Marvin Gaye,  I wonder if you (or anyone) can tell me the quality of recording of this "The Master 1961-1984 [BOX SET]"?
(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/B000001A8J.01._AA240_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg)

I saw plenty of "remastered" version of his previous album, e.g.
(http://ec3.images-amazon.com/images/P/B00007FOMP.01._AA240_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg)

Does the songs in the Box Set contains the same "remastered" versions?

Title: Re: Latest music you've picked up...
Post by: launche on 9 Jul 2006, 01:55 am
Well I'm no expert just a appreciative fan.  He sings my kinda music in a way that instantly connects with my soul.  I don't have that Box set but have many of the other remastered Cd's and enjoy them immensely and can vouch for their SQ.  They probably don't contain the same remastered versions, I don't know.  But that box set states they remastered from the original tapes and here is some press from that box set.  It seems to have a very nice selection covering his various periods and has many unreleased tracks, I may have to get it myself.

Editorial Reviews: 
 

Q (7/95, p.141) - 5 Stars - Indispensable - "...These are some of the most beautiful moments in the history of soul."

Q (p.130) - 4 stars out of 5 - "Marvin Gaye made some of the most life-affirming music ever recorded....Twenty years after his death, the full reach of Gaye's genius is revealed on THE MASTER."

Mojo (7/95, p.111) - "...Handsome 4-CD digest of the man's magnificent work....[Marvin Gaye] became...an inimitable voice capable of touching anybody, anywhere....There's a universe in every note."

Uncut (8/00, p.90) - 5 stars out of 5 - "...Songs of social comment, sexual desire and spiritual desperation so powerful that they left most of the competition stalled at the lights..."

NME (6/3/95, p.48) - 10 (out of 10) - "...A dream package...flush with myriad unreleased tracks, and enhanced with exemplary digital remastering from original sources...the most all-encompassing and astutely assessed compilation of his work currently available..."

Village Voice (2/20/96) - Tied for #3 on the Reissues list of Village Voice's 1995 Pazz & Jop Critics' Poll.

Sounds like a must have IMO.
You seem to be a man of good taste and you can't go wrong with Marvin.  This is music that is enduring and endearing and extends well outside your listening chair.  So play it around the house, with your wife, and I promise it will become apart of you.
The closer you listen the more you'll get drawn in, just play it whenever it just always sets a mood of warmth, togetherness and intimacy.  This is music for couples so don't just keep it in the listening room, that would be missing the point.  And once you go through it burn a copy of your fav slow songs on one CD and it will be just what the doctor ordered..."Sexual Healing"
I bought the "I Want You" Expanded edition disc and it's GREAT and it has about 7 different versions of "I Want You" in particular.  I put it on one night and I must have died and gone to heaven, lets just say my wife and I were in our own episodes of Red Shoes Diaries :oops: Much later that night my wife said to me "It was like the music was coddling us" I'm not trying to be to facetious here and don't mean to offend but just expressing how this artist's music has affected me, YMMV. I'm just trying to share the enjoyment is all. Remember I said I gavemy other CD to friend in need,elhe is currently amassing his own Marvin Gaye collection, as I believe every man should.
Let me know how the Box set turns out.

 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Interesting that you said so.. I do like Soul music, I also like Jazz, in general, I like music that're somewhat "simple" and "quiet". Hence I don't listen to a lot of heavy metal or hard hitting rap.

But I cannot say I have good taste.. because my friends who love rap music said I have a "wussy" taste.  :o

I will probably buy the box set from yourmusic.com, save me 50% from Amazon price! :green:

Man that Rap music today SUCKS, I mean back in the late 80's early 90's that was a good time for rap but today it's garbage for the most part.  It's all commercial and unauthentic and really is more producer driven than artist driven and is center around good beats, it's lyrical doo-doo.  That guys back inthe day had so, something to say but now everything is "In The Club" with the hoes yada yada yada, sell a million to the dumb kids trying to be cool.  There's a few decent rap artists out there but the rest is junk.

On a recent trip to Disney World I was listening to my stuff and my younger brother wanted to play some cd he made from Lil Jon?  I put it in and it was 30 secs of the worst garbage I've ever heard and was a rare time where I was sick to my ears about some music.  I mean he came on shouting and screaming "why you gotta act like a b$&ch" about 10 times in a row, I took it out and through it out the window onto the highway.  scolded my brother, it was a wake up call for me as I had little idea he was listening to this kinda garbage.  I knew he listened to rap but not this stuff, let alone have enough to make a CD etc... I had to restrain myself from saying too much and not alienate him and change our relationship etc...  But that trip I learned that at 14 he's not a kid anymore, he made some sexual references too casually over lunch etc... I mean I was taken aback. As a result he is spending the summer with me because I clearly need to get to know him better.

I hate even mention that rap in the same breath as Marvin, let it end here and not litter this thread any further.

There is a remaster/restored release (I dont know if thats the one) which is great.  And dont forget the follow up which is IMO better - "Jazz Samba Encore!"

I bought the jazz samba, and Getz/Gilberto CD separately, next I have to pick up Jazz Samba Enchore, and I have to look for the other album that's the same as the 4th CD on this boxset.

Picked up a few bargin discs, mostly electro.
1. V.I.P Lounge 2 ~paris~ Disc 1 is termed 'Electro'. Disc2 'world music'
2. This is Chill out. A 3disc set of DJ remixes.
3. Total EUPHORIA mixed by Dave Pearce. 2Disc set.
4. Jazz records presents 'The Late Lounge'. 2Disc of sophisticated chill.
5. Electric Stew The Album. THis is a wierd looking CD set, totally black cover and linear insert with black lettering, even the dics itself does not have a 'label' per se, it looks like a double sided blank disc.
6. Grace Jones 'the collection'. Been a big fan of hers since way back in the last century. Nipple to the bottle, La vie en Rose, Feel up...classic GJ.
7. The story Of Vee-Jay, America's Premier Black Music Label. A 2disc collection of some of their greatest hits spanning the 50's, 60's and 70's.

All of the above were priced under $10. each

Very Nice,
So of the artists what disc sounds the best soncially and or coolest compilation? I really like that genre

Three Way Mirror.. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00000157H/ref=m_art_li_8/103-1701392-1095069?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=5174)...an old fav of mine...excellent sounding cd as well.
A nice one from Flora Purim .. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000589U6/ref=pd_sim_m_3/103-1701392-1095069?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=5174)..the Queen of Brazilian Soul .
Another good collection from Astrud Gilberto... (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005A7WY/sr=1-2/qid=1153380177/ref=pd_bbs_2/103-1701392-1095069?ie=UTF8&s=music)...the Ipanema girl.
Want a sweet voice....Ana Caram... (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005Q46M/sr=1-1/qid=1153380506/ref=sr_1_1/103-1701392-1095069?ie=UTF8&s=music)... 8)

And....as the article mentions "the first Brazilian female singer to sell hundreds of thousands of albums on a consistent basis"...that would be the late Clara Nunes.. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000005H31/ref=pd_bxgy_text_b/103-1701392-1095069?ie=UTF8)...on EMI.

I'm thinking of picking up Patricia Barber's "Cafe Blue". I just listened to it at a dealer store, it's a SACD/CD Hybrid version, it sounded really good...

Unfortunately I don't have a SACD player, and I cannot buy the hybrid version because I have a squeezebox and I believe hybrid CD cannot be ripped (correct me if I'm wrong). So I search around and found several released of the same recording:

-2004 released by Koch Records
-1999 released by Blue Note Records
-1994 released by Premonition

Can anyone tell me which one of these has the best sound quality? Thanks for helping.

Recieved a bunch of cds over the past couple days.
1. Tom McCarthy~spark and luminance. some wicked ass guitar music or so the samples I heard led me to believe.
2. Wajdi Cherif~ Phrygian Istikhbar. Tunisian acoustic jazz
3. Bob Zander~ Shyline to the sea.
4. Ernesta Diaz-Infante & Chris Forsyth~March.
5. Pete Weisse Quartet~ Masch Branch
6. Incognito~ 11. My favorite funk-jazz group.
7. Time Travil.
8. Rick Wald~16/NYC, Castaneda's dreams. NY based big band ensemble.

Over the past month my stereo set up has been 'diassembled', due in part to the new plasma(42") displacing the wall mounted shelves where I had my sources, and my 'laziness' to rearrange the main rack to accomodate the said sources. And with the recent hot weather, I was not too keen on powering up my tube amp.  But I am sure starved for some music...

Just got this...some thoughtful electronic and very well recorded music. Might even qualify as great  demo material, oh yeah. Hey its even HDCD encoded.
THis is the second cd of a 3cd series set...they could have saved media resources and made a 2cd set... this cd runs only 33 minutes. Aside from that gripe, very worthwile addition to the music library.
I won't even comment on the album cover art.   :thumbdown:

Donald Fagen:Morph the Cat vinyl (http://store.acousticsounds.com/browse_detail.cfm?Title_ID=29222&section=vinyl)

I picked this LP up at Acoustic Sounds room at RMAF and listened to it in
Experience Music (http://www.audioxsell.com/community/events/2/41/Rocky-Mountain-Audio-Fest-2006/Experience-Music.htm) room with Steve Hoffman (who mastered it to vinyl). A great sounding
LP and music.

Pete

I'm sure sorry I missed hearing that, Pete!
I really liked the Experience room, both years I was there.

She has good vocals and I do like the self-titled CD but I wish she
would team up with a good jazz band.

Just saw her recommended in Readers Digest.  Kind of popish but I put her on the list anyway.  I agree about needing a good jazz band.

This is a good CD. My wife also loves it.
She can find a jazz band in 20 years but for now this sound is most enjoyable.
Absolutely wonderful sounding on a Sunday afternoon.

1. Ralph Towner, Time Lines. Solo acoustic guitar recording, beautiful.
2. Carrie Rodriguez, Seven Angels on a Bicycle. This gal covers a wide musical span, I hear country, folk, jazz, pop and world. Top notch musicians here too, including Bill Frisell. Sexy looking too.
3. Cheikh Lo, Lamp Fail
4. Willie Nelson, It will always be.
5. OS Mutantes (Remastered). A newly remastered(2006) cd of their 1968 self titled debut album...where rock-psychedelica fused with jazz mixed with Brazilian sounds for an experiment in music's unknown known sound. A true classic and a genuine 5-star album. Its crazy just how fearless one can be when you are young and you just don't know limitations, this was/is a product of that phase.

FWIW YourMusic (where these discs were purchased) just increased their per cd price by $1, effective January 2007.  :wink:

Got home today and found this at my mail box...3-cd set plus a dvd of a live concert in Germany 1978. Popped the dvd in as soon as I got in the door. Its not in DD 5.1 and the lighting is spotty...but the performance is out of this world. Zawinul, Shorter, Jaco and Peter Erksine ...what a band, THe older guys Zawinul and Shorter are like the earth and the mountain with the younger Jaco and Peter being the children running around...Jaco is bubbling all over the stage and Peter is rocking out while sitting in one spot, towards the end of the 2hours+ concert they are both shirtless...What a joy to hear Shorter doing 'thanks for the memories' and 'I got it bad and that ain't good', and Jaco solo run on #8 Delores/Portrait of Tracy/third stone from the sun.
And thats just the dvd...waw.

4. Dave Douglas~meaning and mystery.

There are a handful of artists that I have to buy every available original album they put out...Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Fela, and in the last year I added Dave Douglas and Jason Moran to that list.

John Butler Trio - Sunrise Over Sea

An aussie who sounds a bit like Jack Johnson if he had John Mayer's blues fixation with lots of great guitar and story songs.  He has flown under the radar for me but record store said he has new one out or soon coming that I will watch for.  Nice live sounding recorded sound as well - always a nice bonus!

Second one from my SecondSpin mostly acoustic-oriented purchase

Its been ten years, she's married (had some sense beaten into her?) and now its acoustic - never got the original one - an excellent recording (excellent guitars), and as they say, not as screechy.

One of my favorite Mousketeer-turned-recording-artist.

Mine would be over 40 in just the last month.  You guys know about lala.com?  I have been trading a ton of music on lala.com and also buying there as well.  Some of their prices are cheaper than amazon.  I buy a lot of $8-10 CD's, but it is primarily a CD trading site.   Its pretty good for checking out bands that you've wanted to check out but never have and trading out stuff you picked up on a whim and didn't care for. 

Tito was the one to point it out to me and then I found Gordy on there. 

Stuff that came in the mail today:
M83 - Before the Dawn Heals Us
The Nationals - Boxer
Dream Theater - Systematic Chaos
Peter Bjorn & John - Writer's Block
Queens of the Stone Age - Era Vulgaris

Exactly!  I traded 100-150 cd's in about 6 months before my want list got too... obscure maybe?  Haven't been there for a few months, maybe it's time to send out a few cd's and see what happens  :thumb:

I love record swap meets. This weekend's record show must have had over 20 collectors with crates and crates of excellent quality used records, so many albums that it would have taken all day to go through them all. Prices ranged from $2 - $8. After an hour and half I had 14 albums, though I could easily have bought 10 times that number, lacking only time and unlimited funds.

The latest additions to my collection are:

George Harrison - Living in the Material World
Erroll Garner - Erroll Garner
Dave Brubeck - Time In
David Gilmour - David Gilmour
David Gilmour - About Face
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Damn the Torpedoes
Faces - A nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse
Dave Alvin - Romeo's Escape
Neil Young - Neil Young
Dave Brubeck Quartet - Time Changes
Cannonball Adderley - The Best of Cannonball Adderley
Sarah Vaughn - Belt the Hits
Wes Montgomery - Vol. 2 the best of Wes Montgomery
Stereo Review's Stereo Test Record Model SR12 for Home and Laboratory Use

Hey!

    I was around Time Sq. NYC today. Had sometime so I walked in to the Virgin. The first thing I alway do is to walk to the vinyl section. Yes, with nothing particular in mind still I ended up walking out with two vinyl sets.  :icon_lol:

(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/516S4P78A0L._SS500_.jpg)

   Robbie Williams "Greatest Hits" UK Press 2 LPs set. Well, I do like couple of his songs and this is my chance to have them on vinyl LP. :D The sad part was this set cost me $34  :duh:

(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51P2MDPME6L._SS500_.jpg)

    Jay-Z "The Blueprint" Well, I'm not a really hardcore rap/hip-hop fan but I used to listen to this with my brother in his car. It was hard to find this on vinyl than but I think it is now in print again. :cool:

     Just cleaned them will have to listen to them another day. :roll:

Stuff I got right here on AC.  Greyboy*. Da funk!!  Can't get enough of tracks 3, 5 and 6.  Pity they didn't bring the tenor player up in the mix.  He bridges jazz and R&B note perfectly on these tracks.  Russell's new disc.  The tiny bit of D'Gary's singing and the way he is miked makes me recall that opera might oughtta be done with just two mikes above and in front of the stage (what would it sound like if the the singers and setting were defined by, well, themselves?).  I'm still waiting on Coltrane's Impulse collection and that Franz Bak disc recommended by someone (you know who you are).  A Satfrat recommendation by Gretchen Peters is in the cart along with a little thing by a fluegelhornist named Thomas Marriott.

* For you youngbloods (altho if your a real youngblood, or as hip as Wolfny, you probably know this already) "greyboy" is an expression to describe a whiteboy with a little soul.  That's from the day (with great affection).

Just added to my CD/SACD collection with some basics.

Michael Jackson - Number Ones
Seal - System
Gipsy Kings - Volare
Amy Winehouse - Back to Black
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue SACD
John Coltrane - Blue Train SACD
Rodrigo y Gabriela

The last CD was a recent discovery for me on Amazon and I tell all you fellow audiophiles...don't walk....RUN AND GO GET the Rodrigo y Gabriela CD!!!!!! It is the most energetic and incredible acoustic guitar I have ever heard - even better than Gipsy Kings acoustic works. If you have fast detailed speakers and tubes it sounds AMAZING. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!!

MJ-  I take it you live in the city.  I don't figure Anthony Braxton for the burbs.  Had the pleasure of seeing the Arkestra live in SF at a club called Both/And.  Had lifetime free admission there cause I traded some rare albums to the owner (two blocks from my apartment).  Freaky stuff like early Albert Ayler.  That place was a serious music venue.  Served only apple cider and coffee.  Or, maybe the owner just couldn't get a liquor license.  Never asked.  Enjoy yourself.

I have been a classical fan for decades and have thousands of CDs, but every once in a while I find something really special that I've had no idea was out there. The Rachmaninov cello sonata is one of those pieces. This is truly a symphony for cello and piano with a particularly ravishing final movement. Anyway, search it on Amazon and you'll find reviews written much better than I can write. Fanfare magazine says the best version is the Truls Mork recording. There's a link below where you can order copies, all used, I believe, since it is now out of print. It took me a few months to locate a copy, but there are several available at Amazon now. For other versions, many rated five stars by reviewers, just search at Amazon, "Rachmaninov, cello sonata."

I see that there is at least one source for a new copy of this in the states.

I have all of them.   Attack and Release is good, I like the last one prior and the Rubber Factory the best I think. 

I recent picked up:
Porcupine Tree - Nil Recurring
The Black Keys - Attack and Release
Sun Kil Moon - April
The Raconteurs - the new one

Bought 3 cds yesterday which don't fit my usual style of music. They have a Coffee House sound which I found quite relaxing and enjoyable. Good for times when the mood strikes.

Pagliaro- Hit Parade
I bought this for the song, Some Sing Some Dance, great song. The rest of the cd is good, but nothing outstanding. Disc II is mostly sung in french which is why I like it. Not understanding the words adds to the ambiance.
Although the recording is good there is something not quite right. When I try cranking which is already loud, it distorts. So I going to run it through my BCD-1 process to smooth out the harshness when cranked.

Diana Ross and the Supremes
Got this for the song Love Child. This song sends a shiver up my spine. Love the way Diana Ross sings it. Couple other hit songs we've all heard on the radio. Nice Coffee House feel.

Anita Baker- Rhythm of Love
Another Motown type music that I got by accident when the clerk at the store gave me the wrong disc for the Pagliaro album. Again fits the Coffee House ambiance.

I woke up today having zero intentions on adding to my music collection.  In fact, the thought hadn't even crossed my mind..........until I came to this place and happened across a few posts...  what began as a hunt for two discs turned into ten purchases! BASTAGES!!!

Bach: The Art of Fugue
Chet Atkins: Plays Back Home Hymns
Dave Brubeck Quartet: Jazz Impressions of Japan
Dead Can Dance: Serpents Egg [SACD]
Dead Can Dance: Spiritchaser [SACD]
Ella and Louis Again (Dig)
Joni Mitchell: Blue
Kate Walsh: Tim’s House
Melody Gardot: Worrisome Heart
Sonya Kitchell: Words Came Back to Me


The saddest part is, I actually set out to get some modern *nu metal?* rock and electronic....   Oh well...   :lol:

Dropped by the Virgin record store today...picked up 14 cds(some being 2-3disc sets) for 103$ tax. inc.

Virgin has a 35% off all Classical, jazz, world, and country music...until supplies last.

So not sure if that signals a downsizing of their music software or trouble pending in the store's existence. But there's some good deals to be had especially in the World, Jazz and classical dept.

Thanks to Border's 50% off sale I picked up these gems:

Cecilia Bartoli - Maria (Decca '07)
If you can get past the fact that Cecilia is (apparently) no Maria (I certainly can), this is a wonderful CD. Don't let the scathing critics steer you away from this fun recording.

Benjamin Britten / English Chamber Orchestra - J.S. Bach Brandenburg Concertos 1-6 (London '69),
also includes Neville Marriner / Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields - Concerto for Violin and Concerto for Flute and Strings.
Modern instruments? Yeah. So? These CDs are a real treat. Wonderful, full, satisfying sound.

Mikhail Pletnev - Domenico Scarlatti: Keyboard Sonatas (Virgin '01)
Superb! Sweet, melodic, and vibrant performances.

Mstislav Rostropovich / Carlo Maria Giulini / London Philharmonic Orchestra - Dvorak & Saint-Saens: Cello Concertos (EMI '08)
Slav - beautiful, as expected.

The Beatles - Let It Be (EMI '87)
This was one I've ruminated over for years ... do I get the original, Naked, or Anthology 3? I decided on the original based on the fact that this is what I had on vinyl and so fondly remember and have hungered for ever since I dumped my vinyl 15 years ago :duh: :duh: :duh:. I am glad I got the original. I didn't realize how much I've missed it!

Otis Redding - The Very Best of Otis Redding  // Hard to argue here.  Not all songs are great but there are some gems.
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs  // Excellent!
Mark Kozelek - What's Next to the Moon  // haven't listened yet
Niyaz - Nine Heavens  // excellent but then I've heard this prior.
Portis Head - Third  // wasn't impressed thus far.
Kings of Leon - Only by the Night  // really impressed.  I had written off KOL thinking the singer sucked, this doesn't get on my nerves and the music writing is excellent
Andrew Bird - Noble Beast  // Really liked it
Ryan Adam - Cardinology  // sounded pretty decent what I finished hearing.
Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion  // don't get this one on first listen, but then I didn't get into Strawberry Jam on first listen either
M. Ward - Hold Time //  a let down...sounds like a rip off of his other albums...to much of the same sound, bored me.

"Third" gets more interesting upon further listening.
Kings of Leon - There's something simple and nice there, I like it.  "Only by The Night" is real pleasing and just easy to sink into, likely the one to push these guys further into the spotlight.  I've played the New Kings of Leon disc about 10x more than the new U2 disc. Even Deathcab for Cutie's "Narrow Stairs" is outplaying U2.  "I Will Possess Your Heart" is just infectious.  I did give U2 a good listen last night with a better appreciation for it.

Tragically Hip - We Are The Same
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=19312)

I haven't been keeping up with The Hip and haven't picked up any albums since Phantom Power, so I don't know how this compares to the more recent releases. It's not as strong an album as Phantom Power, or most of their albums up to that point. It is a good and fairly solid album, no real misses. Yet only a few songs really make you sit up and notice, like 'Morning Moon', 'Coffee Girl' (which is reminiscent of 'Thompson Girl' from Phantom Power), and my personal favorite 'Love is a First'.

They are touring the States this summer, if you've never seen them live I highly recommend it. They are a stellar live band.

DeerHunter - MicroCastle/Weird Era Cont.
    I am not really sure about this one yet.  But, I will give it more time.

A.C. Newman - Get Guilty
    Not as good as "The Slow Wonder" or his work with the Pornos, but it's still decent.

Neil Young - Sugar Mountain Live '68
    I am not feeling the same way about this as I did with Massey Hall, but it is still a cool document of Young.

Antony & the Johnsons - The Crying Light
    Beautiful stuff and pretty well recorded.  I am enjoying it very much.  If you are a sucker for vocalists, check it out, or 2005's "I am a Bird Now".

The National - Boxer (LP)
    I am enjoying this one a lot.

I just ordered a ton of stuff from Amazon, so I will post more soon. :D

Interesting day went into the store to just put my money down for the new Steve Earle "Townes" album. Pre-ordering gets you a bracelet to a Steve Earle in store the Friday after the album comes out, seemed like a no-brainer :)

Anyway since like any of you I can't just walk into a record store and walk back out without browsing I headed to the bins. I picked up the Whiskeytown and Magnolia Electric Co record store day 7". Then I found two pretty interesting titles

1. A sealed copy of "A.P. Carter's Clinch Mountain Ballads" for much less than this ebay listing,
http://cgi.ebay.com/A.P.-Carter%27s-Clinch-Mountain-Ballads--the-Carter-Famil_W0QQitemZ260400469447QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090427?IMSfp=TL090427132001r38127

It's on Mountain Eagle Records which I think is a revival of sorts of an older label that was more contemporary to A.P. Carter.

As a bit of a nerd for old country and bluegrass music I thought this was a really cool find. I'm not even sure I own any other sealed records.

2. As a baseball fan and, most importantly, a Cardinals fan I had to get this ;D  (note: not a photo of my copy, mine is in much better condition)

It's in vg+ shape, even has a near mint copy of the poster that originally came with it. I found a little info on the interwebs about it today,
http://wayoutjunk.blogspot.com/2007/06/stan-mans-hit-record-to-help-you-be-big.html

Quote
This was a record from 1963 that you could get from your local Phillips 66 gas station, from a time when gas stations wanted your business so bad that they would give you free gifts if you patronized them! Learn through Stan "The Man" Musial (and co-host Joe Garagiola) techniques on how to improve your batting skills. This record also came with a booklet that further illustrated these techniques, and I have included that in a separate download if you're interested in it. It hasn't improved my batting in Wii Sports Baseball, but maybe it'll work for you in a more practical setting! Hope you like it!

I have a similar baseball related LP in my collection that I had to pick up because it seemed really odd and cool.

Went back home to Hawaii last month and got turned on to this:

SDIB (San Diego Island Boyz) - SDIB

Nothing inventive, revolutionary or thoughtful but if you've been to the islands before it will certainly bring back the positive vibes.  Reggae, hawaiian, pop and folk all mashed up.  If you like Iz you'll probably dig this too all this is more reggae and less hawaiian.

I posted this on the Vinyl Circle, but since the box set contains mostly CDs, I im posting it here as well.

Yesterday I received my deluxe box set of String Cheese Incident's Trick or Treat. It contains a 180 gram double album plus 11 CDs of some of the band's most classic Incidents from Halloween's past at Atlanta's Variety Playhouse (1998) Philadelphia's Electric Factory (1999), Portland, ME's State Theatre (2000), New York City (2001), Shrine Auditorium (2002) in Los Angeles, Sin City's Cox Pavillion (2003) and the Exhibition Center at Alliant Energy Center in Madison, WI (2004).
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=23328)

Since the band members are off doing solo projects this year, there won't be an SCI 2009 Halloween Incident  I've seen them twice at Red Rocks, once with Taj Mahal and Bob Weir & Rat Dog. Each concert lasted between 4 and 5 hours  Great jamin

Happy Halloween everyone.

These records just came in today.  The Anita O'Day album is a huge personal find for me. I have bought more scratched up copies on eBay than you can shake a stick at, and at high prices to boot.  This also came from an eBay seller, but for only $14 I was willing to take a small risk and it paid off.  This record is in lovely shape considering its age.  The sound quality is absolutely terrific and only two tracks have a
wee bit of surface noise.  Otherwise it plays NM.

The Fletcher Henderson Columbia boxed set was issued in 1961.  For 78 era material I generally prefer CDs or good quality 78s if I can find them.  The Fletcher Henderson Orchestra is pretty well documented by the Classics Label in France, but most of these CDs have been discontinued and are out of print.  I found this 4 LP 33 1/3 vinyl boxed set on eBay for $15.  I'm listening to the first record now and the sound quality is pretty darned good.  It was sourced from metal masters and NM 78s, and given that it was issued in the early 1960s there is some source noise and a few clicks here...but all of the music is here too.  So I consider this to be a very worthwhile set for anyone who likes jazz from the 1920s and 1930s.  This LP set probably sounds better than any of the CDs that are available of the same material.

There's a ton of great music here for the jazz fan, featuring vocalists Anita O'Day and June Christy.  Many great instrumentals
are on tap as well, such the outstanding Intermission Riff.  Stan Kenton was a musical innovator and ahead of his time.

three of them went up for auction on eBay.  Maybe it's the tough economy...

I assure you, you are not...the only one buying music ie.
In my case I buy music mostly in big chunks, my last purchase was about 14 cds, previous to that 320 (last Nov.), no way would I be listing that. I much rather just share what I bought on the 'what's playing now' thread.

You are to be commended though for your purchases(and posting), most seem to be collector's albums from a very collectible era.  :thumb:

I bought one of these from Mosaic right before it went out of print. I held onto it for about a year and then sold it. I never opened it or listened to the discs. They have gone for a lot when they show up.

That was once true, but not any more.  The economy is putting a lot of downward pricing pressure on this stuff.  I bought three OOP Mosaic box sets recently that were still sealed.  Over a year ago each of these were selling on eBay for more than $300.  Paid $90 for one, $140 for another, and $185 for the third.  I won't do Buy It Now on any Mosaic set on eBay because a lot of sellers still think they are going to fetch stratospheric prices in this down economy.  I have been able to bid on and win auctions on OOP Mosaic sets of interest without spending insane sums of money.

I just put in a sizable order with Amazon.

Here's some of it....

(http://www.indierockfan.net/pics/NewCDs4202010.jpg)

...and here is most of the rest.

(http://www.indierockfan.net/pics/NewCDs4212010.jpg)

I really labored over the decision to buy the Genesis remixes.  I own the 1970-1975 set on vinyl and am happy with it, but I had lingering concerns about the digital audio versions.  At first I was going to buy an individual disc and then see how I felt about it.  But after agonizing over which disc to get I said to hell with it and bought these...

Box Set 3 (1970-1975) on CD/DVD
Trick of the Tail (SACD/DVD)
Wind and Wuthering (SACD/DVD)
Duke (SACD/DVD)
Abacab (SACD/DVD)
Genesis (SACD/DVD)
Invisible Touch (SACD/DVD)

I bought the SACD titles individually because they were available and I wasn't interested in the later period boxed sets since I don't really care for all of the albums from the Phil Collins era.  I'm still undecided about the Live Boxed Set.  All I really want is Genesis Live and Seconds Out, but the former isn't available seperately as far as I can tell.

I also ordered a bunch of other titles:

Happy Mondays - Pills 'n' Thrills and Bellyaches
Happy Mondays - Bummed
Adam and the Ants - Kings of the Wild Frontier
New Order - Movement (2CD Collector's Edition)
New Order - Power, Corruption & Lies (2CD Collector's Edition)
New Order - Low-Life (2CD Collector's Edition)
New Order - Technique (2CD Collector's Edition)
ABC - The Lexicon of Love
ABC - How to Be a...Zillionaire!
Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Welcome to the Pleasuredome
Simple Minds - Sparkle in the Rain
Simple Minds - New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84)
Haircut 100 - Pelican West
Pet Shop Boys - Please
Yello - Stella
Yo La Tengo - Fakebook
Yo La Tengo - Painless
The Cranberries - Everybody Else is Doing It So Why Can't We?
Field Music - Tones of Town
Field Music - Measure
The Outfield - Play Deep
Yazoo - Upstairs at Eric's

(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41vaEFLAy2L._SL500_AA300_.jpg)
I've given this precisely one listen but I was thoroughly enjoying it.  Not a stretch for a fan of the Shins.

Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record

(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/613eEZ98QQL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)
Again, just one listen but thought it equal to their earlier stuff.  Thumbs up.

I have been on a music buying spree for the past week and some of my new acquisitions are starting to trickle in.

(http://www.indierockfan.net/pics/NewProperBoxedSets8192010.jpg)
Here are several 4 CD boxed sets from Proper Records UK.  I own too many of these things to keep count.  If you're into historical jazz recordings from, say, 1920 through the 1950s then these boxed sets are hard to beat at their price point.  Amazon sells them for $25.98 per set, but you can get them for less than half that from any number of reputable sellers in the Amazon.com marketplace.  I didn't pay more than $12.95 for any of the sets in the photo.  These are obviously budget sets and are not going to win any awards for best sound quality or insightful and deeply researched discographical notes.  But a Proper Box doesn't set you back $100 or more like a set from Mosaic does.  That said, the sound quality in many cases is very good, and on some tracks even exceptional.  But Proper Records will not go to the ends of the Earth like Mosaic will to find the best sounding source in existence.  This is a great way to get exposed to some brilliant music for not a lot of money.

I purchased the catalog of Andreas Vollenwieder.  This includes Midnight clear (holiday)  and magic harp (best of.)  His music is eclectic and great.  I also like the quality of the sonics.

Just had this delivered today.  Chris Botti Night Sessions in SACD.  Bought it in used, as new condition and it was indeed perfect when it got here.  Feel like I got a bargain considering what I have seen them go for.  I believe this is the best sounding SACD I have heard.... maybe because it was the most I have ever paid for a single CD!!  It really is excellent.

Paul, Radiohead In Rainbows was $6 all the rest were $2.50. I knew this load came in Thrusday while I was there.

Santa was very good to me.  I received from my wife and kids a number of CDs:

- Clapton
- Mojo by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
- Walking in Clarksdale by Page / Plant
- Mulennium by Gov't Mule
- Higdon & Tchaikovsy by Hilary Hahn

I also bought for myself:

- Elgar Complete Collection on EMI
- Oistrakh Complete Recordings on EMI
- Koln Concert by Keith Jarrett
- Live at Gdansk by David Gilmour
- Bible Belt by Diane Birch
- Little Dreamer by Beth Rowley
 
The last two are my annual gift to myself.  At the end of every year I try to make it a point to buy one or two CDs from artists I've never heard of. The samples on Amazon / Google of both Birch & Rowley sound promising.  (I'm a huge fan of female vocals.)

Happy listening!!!

I picked up a used cd 3-pack at my favorite music store (Newbury Comics). My wife works for an accountant and is working 6 day weeks now, so I find myself heading over to one of their locations every Saturday now.  :)

ITCOTCK - King Crimson box set, 5 cd's and 1 dvd.

The dvd seems interesting as it has 5.1 mlp 48/24 and 2.0 mlp 96/24, besides dts versions and a 2.0 pcm.  Probably same dvda I hear that's running around.
I already have a JP K2HD import, I'm curious how that will compare to the cd's, as that one sounds very, very good..

Two releases made for SET (at least mine) magic:

Nine Horses (David Sylvian) - Snow Borne Sorrow
Pop music? Oh, hell no! Wonderful ethereal, slightly avant-garde music. Very well recorded too.
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=43468)

Stacey Kent - Raconte-Moi
Another well recorded release. Nice to hear well recorded piano, so often it is not.
All songs in French, which I find ... ooo la laa :eyebrows:

Ahhh, this is gonna drive me nuts now.  Is there a name for that phenomenon?  The miscalculation of the amount of space required to handwrite a word or sentence?  The closest I could find was something about graphomotor problems.

Oh right, the thread topic...listening to and somewhat disgruntled over this One Hit Wonder of a record.  Maybe it's a grower, but I have my doubts.

I've picked up a bunch of music lately. But you all should know about this if you don't already....

Charles Bradley's "No Time For Dreaming".

Old School soulful R&B. from Charles who is in his 60s. This music recalls Otis and Curtis.

(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=44433)

This is my vinyl awaiting the return of my RWA 30.2 which is getting LFP-V'd.

This isn't the latest music I've picked up, it's the latest pickup given to me by music:  La Scala- Keith Jarrett (ECM).  I've only heard excerpts of his previous solo albums and the one I think I like the most is with him on organ.  This album, however, I've heard many times.  You gotta be in the mood, I suppose, but it sends.

This is in French mostly:  Acadian Lisa Leblanc's self titled debut album.  Excellent stuff if you have a smidgen of French.  One song, the title and subject of which is  Today my Life is Shit is a really fantastic anthem to those really bad days.  Funny too.  Here is a video for any one curious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIMA0wLSwW4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIMA0wLSwW4)

Life's Been Good is one of my favorite songs, not that it is on any of the albums I bought. The XTC album is one of the three remaining studio albums of theirs I was looking for.

It has been a while since I listened to that Pink Floyd album you just received.

Did you get those 300+ CDs from the local good will store?  I frequently check out my local good will places and am lucky to get 3 or 4 at a time.  Of course, a lot of other people are checking out the same places frequently.  At a buck or two for each CD, there are a lot of opportunists including me.

No, it would take me years to get all that from the local Goodwill stores. I usually can find 6 to 10 CDs a week to buy at Goodwill between the two nearest locations. I only check once a week. Of the CDs above 16 are from local pawnshops (cheapest pricing), 14 from Goodwill, 28 from Amazon (mostly the newer albums), and the rest in lots from eBay. Spent around $550 for all those albums. Prices varied between all the CDs.

How would you rate the disc quality of the lots you've been buying? I have REALLY bad OCD and freak-out when I order discs that are advertised as "like new" and they arrive with even minor/faint scratches or small problems with the cover art. Do you find the lots to be in generally good condition? By that I mean - when advertised as "like new" do they arrive (mostly) matching that description? Every disc in my collection looks like it was just removed from the shrink-wrap and I would end up having to replace anything that wasn't. These days I only order stuff from Amazon and eBay when it's from a trusted seller, or someone who guarantees the quality. That's a lot of questions, but generally just wanting to know how your luck has been buying them.

Thanks,

Slush

Well, I am not OCD about my CDs. :)

I am mainly burning them to my music server, so getting a CD that plays is paramount. The ones from the pawn shops were in the worst condition, but I was able to rip them with no problems. Two of the lots didn't have jewel cases (15 for $9, 48 for $26), which is fine with me. Another lot didn't have cover notes on the jewel cases, but I knew that going in (30 for $20). I just bought 78 individual auction CDs from the same seller to save on cost which the condition was individually indicated. Will let you know how that turns out. I should get them next week.

I never even considered they were going straight onto a hard drive. As long as they're playable it really doesn't matter what condition they're in, and it's a lot cheaper than buying digital downloads from Amazon or iTunes. Had I taken that route I would have saved a ton of money over the years. Let me know how that next lot turns out.

Thanks,

Dave

Used CDs can be cheaper and better quality than most downloads. It is kind of interesting to see the bidding patterns of different people. Pearl Jam and Radiohead often sell for more on eBay than you could get them for used on Amazon. Recent releases from unknown artists can go for next to nothing since the demand just isn't there. Currently I am not willing to go over $1 on bids, unless it is an album that I really want. A few of the auctions I won were 2012 releases for less than $1.

Lords of Acid "Lust" isn't for everybody, but I used to play the crap out of it back when it came out. My wife hated it  8)

I listened to it after you had posted it earlier this year. It was interesting.  :wink:

WC...........What is the Sign of 4 like,is it out there like Song X or Zero Tolerance for Silence. As it's one that i don't have but have been leary to pick up.        Thanks

Not sure what Song X or Zero Tolerance for Silence are like, but Sign of 4 is three CDs. I started playing the first one last night. Well it sort of sounds like all the muscians were playing their instruments irrespective of the others, so it sounds like just noise.

WC........Thanks for the reply. I thought it might be like that so that's why i didn't pick it up.Note that a guy i worked with picked up Song X as his first Metheny disc(big mistake) he wound up giving it to me. I just could not get into it at all and flogged it.Then i made the mistake of getting Zero Tolerance for Silence(another mistake)flogged that one too.Not to say you shouldn't pick up any of his stuff because most of it is very good. So if you don't like Sign of 4 don't bother getting those two.If you like i'll give you a list of some of his better one's that i like.        Thanks again.

I'm amazed at the huge quantities of music you get.

a) Do you ever listen to anything more than once?
b) Do you ever listen to all of it at all?

a) yes, I listen to many albums more than once. I am a cheapskate so I will listen to a new album 2 or 3 times before I shell out $10 or more for an album. I pick up most of the used CDs at $3 or less.

B) I haven't yet. Last year I bought a bunch of CDs and they got ripped to the computer with out listening to them. Big mistake. I will get to them at some point. Since the beginning of the year I have made an effort to listen to everything I buy. I currently have a stack of about 100 CDs waiting to be listened to, so I am a little behind, but will catch up at some point.

New CD:

Pain is Beauty - Chelsea Wolfe

Decided that this year I will look to get the albums I really want. I have a long list of albums that were released in 2013 that I will slowly purchase and I am anticipating a lot of 2014 album releases. I am almost through my purchases from last year. 1 to 4 albums per week is much more manageable.

The Ventures' Christmas Album (used flea market LP)

Wait 'til you hear the Ventures morph "Tequila" into "Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer."    :scratch:

The cuts start with a classic Ventures piece before switching, mid-bar, into a classic Christmas song.  Bizarre, but fun.   :thumb:

Some recent new-to-me finds.

Eden Brent - "Mississippi Number One" & "Ain't Got No Troubles" - superb piano blues & boogie woogie and a great voice to go with it.

Scott Miller - "Big Big World", "Upside Downside" & "Citation" - Americana. One of the best songwriters around.

Simone Dinnerstein - "Bach, A Strange Beauty" - excellent classical pianist. Has several other Bach albums out. All recommended.

Thanks r-a-d, nice looking set you picked up there too.  8)  It will take a bit, but I'll get there. If I get some work in it'll go faster as I run the CD changer nonstop when I'm working. The McDuff has a couple of dupes of what I have, so may just karma those out. Should make for an interesting comparo of remasters.  :thumb:

Three new discs that I'm really enjoying:

The Haden Triplets-  debut from Charlie Haden's daughters, produced by Ry and Joachim Cooder

Hurray for the Riff Raff - Small Town Heroes...The album features frontwoman Alynda Lee Segarra - who settled in New Orleans after leaving her native Bronx at age 17- with twelve new, original songs all written or co-written by Segarra, with support from a vivid cast of Crescent City musicians.

NPR has said that Hurray for the Riff Raff 'sweeps across eras and genres with grace and grit,' never more so than on 'Small Town Heroes.'

Catherine Russell - Bring it Back -  With Bring It Back, vocalist Catherine Russell digs deeper into a rich vein of musical treasures. Mining legendary collaborations between her father, Luis Russell and the great Louis Armstrong, Russell brings along her team from two previous chart-topping albums, the latest of which won the Prix du Jazz Vocal from L'academie du Jazz and Grand Prix du Hot Club de France. Gems from the jazz age and swing era, performed with new arrangements for ten-piece orchestra blend seamlessly with reinventions sourced from Blues icons Esther Phillips, Al Hibbler, Wynonie Harris and Little Willie John. Russell personifies the living heart and proud history of each song.

Josh Ritter: Hello Starling.

It's a studio album, but quite nice. Especially interesting is the track "Baby That's Not All."

All I can say is put it on, sit quietly and wait for it. Trust me... wait for it.

I picked up a couple of CDs by Vandaveer, a project featuring the vocal duo Mark Charles Heidinger and Rose Guerin, somewhat reminiscent of John Paul White and Joy Williams in the The Civil Wars.

The first, Oh, Willie, Please..., is a self described "brand new album of very old songs" with an excellent rendition of Pretty Polly:
(https://www.ptxstore.com/vandaveer/images/large/small.png?osCsid=c5298f220e1cd6f70d3e8bba0364e888)

The second is Dig Down Deep, an interesting collection of new folk-pop songs.
(https://www.ptxstore.com/vandaveer/images/large/CUV13C-A4.png)

Check them out.

To Drive The Cold Winter Away by Lorenna McKennitt

She's been off the playlist for awhile, but I stumbled on this CD today.  Spectacular SQ and depth, must have been recorded in an old stone church.  Delicate Olde English Christmas music that you can listen to year-round.  Cello, harp, not much else.  An Amazon review summed it up perfectly.  "McKennitt's vocals on this are beautiful, ethereal, haunting, absolutely perfect."

Though I live in Japan, it's rare that I find many recording artists that I truly feel deserve the title of "artist." Much of it seems to fall into absurd or comical. But I recently came across a great band called "The Fin." They are an indie rock band singing in english, and have toured briefly in the States (as well as parts of Asia). Very great band and sound.

Some examples below:

Stumbled on a new (?)

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhHhhhhh!!!
(ad nauseum).

I have to get this. Love that John Cipollina tremolo. There use to be a 2lp boot of the Filmore stuff, "maiden of the Cancer Moon" which was pretty good but the sq was poor and beggars can't be choosers. When QMS stuck to the raga/pysch rock they were great and Cipollina was great but the blues stuff, not so much. Thanks AD!

Gents - have only listened to it once so far, and in full disclosure there is a mic dropout on the vocals for maybe a minute or so on one of the cuts on the first disc. You can still hear the vocal in the background from the other mics, but it is mildly annoying. Hey, that's live recording. Can't remember which song at the moment. But on the whole I say it's worth adding to the library. I'll probably check out more of the concerts that have been released in the not too distant past. I picked up a 'Live in San Jose 1967' bootleg many years back (not realizing it was such), which was an atrocious recording, mostly unlistenable. Though I broke it out not long ago and it didn't sound as bad as I'd remembered, but can't recommend that.

Have a great Sunday !

Don't have the Box set, but do have the re-masters of the 1st & Shady Grove in that format. Will have to re-listen, it's been a bit, but as I recall they were well done. Will check next time I've got the system on & verify.
Title: Re: Latest music you've picked up...
Post by: ArthurDent on 15 Aug 2017, 05:15 am
Ok, just listened to the two debut releases. Note that the original CD releases are pretty good. The remaster is definitely more dynamic, cleaner, & more defined. Of course it's also 'hotter', ie pumped up. I clearly noted the volume change between the two, and I was getting a little fatigue with the remaster. For the occasional listen I'd think it would be worth the purchase, particularly if you only listen to one of these CDs at a time. My ears aren't what they once were, so better ears or more critical systems may find it too hot for enjoyment.

Listening to Shady Grove now. Like the 1st the original release is good, but the remaster is better. In this case more listenable than the debut, doesn't seem quite as hot, no fatigue.

To a degree it's also system dependent, though my office system is pretty smooth in general. SS amp, tube pre, hybrid DAC, Sony 300 disc changer, Dahlquist monitors. Listening extremely near field. You might have an issue listening to more than 1 or two of these CDs in a row at volume, I listen at pretty reasonable levels, but if I didn't already have most of the releases in one form or another, and I wanted the literature as well I'd go for it. I'm not particularly good on technical terminology, but the remasters have a presence/clarity missing in the original releases.

Hope that helps some, YMMV.

This isn't a recent purchase but I thouught I'd add to the above discussion. I have this 2disc retrospective and the selection and sq is very good. Anyone looking for a QMS refresher or introduction would be well served here. Cipollina's guitar sounds great on this set and perhaps deliberately mixed to sound 'upfront' at least more so than I remember from the original recordings.

After a few months of waiting, my local used record dealer called.  He had found a Mint copy of Sticky Fingers by the Rolling Stones for me.  It is absolutely pristine and sounds fabulous.  According to my dealer, it's a first pressing, but honestly I'm not that into collecting to really know what that means as far as this LP is concerned.  It sounds good and the jacket looks like new.  I'm a happy guy.

Picked up a new, unopened Japanese pressing of ABBA's ARRIVAL on LP!  Not sure if I should open it....or keep it as a collector's item..... :D

24 hours left of the promo price for the new'' One Mic '' recording series from Sound Liaison.
The Feenbrothers recording is especially outstanding. That one microphone can do this is unbelievable. Only problem is that everything else sounds a bit unnatural after this recording.
