OK, so I get home from a friends house this evening and sit in front of my stereo for 8 straight hours listening to albums. I'm a firm believer in listening all the way through an album and if I can't because the content isn't good enough, that CD/LP is immediately sold. My system is by far the most emotionally compelling I've owned and brings me back to the days when I used to listen to album after album on my very modest stereo back in college. I didn't really care about high end back then, though I've been raised with high end gear since I was born- my Dad is a longtime audiophile and former dealer.
Anyway, I digress. What I listened to this evening:
The Beatles Abbey Road LP
The Strokes- First Impressions on Earth LP
Grateful Dead American Beauty LP
Mozart Flute Concertos Zuckerman Flute LP
Brahms Piano Concerto #1 Brendel- CD
Miles Davis Milestones CD
Jay Z The Blueprint CD
Fiona Apple Extraordinary Machine LP
The Libertines LP
Daryl Hall & John Oates Rock & Soul Part I LP
Hi Fi Espanola LP
Blur Modern Life is Rubbish CD
Oasis Definitley Maybe LP
What a killer session. This, my friends, is what it's all about- at least to me.
PS- shouldn't a "What are you listening to" thread be a sticky on this circle?
We have VERY similar tastes in music and how we listen. I often don't get the chance to listen to so many straight through in one session.
Last night was Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited and Liz Storey's Solid Colors, both LP's
Happy Listening!
