The quality is excellent and better than the original lps.

You've been posting so many CDs lately I thought that maybe your TT was broken.

I understand. I have those days myself. I still haven't cleaned and played some of the vinyl I received and bought around Christmas.

Diamond Head - The best of...

Its one of those days. Getting in touch with hard rock/metal roots.

earlier I played:
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless (OK, I really dismiss this band...they sucked something big live and they suck on the album too)

Vampire Weekend - Contra (don't like this as much as the first...its sounds like they are trying too hard)

NIN - The Slip (Liked this, although I'll have to give it some more listens to really appreciate)

IMO, diamond head is underappreciated. All the influences for Metallica as obvious. Half of Kill them All is off this disk. Its early metal, but its all there. They didn't get the fame but they did get the influence.

Marcos Jimenez is likely a new name as the pianist has recorded exclusively for European and Japanese labels. A native of Spain who relocated to Switzerland at a young age, Jimenez is unaccompanied on I Thought About You, which mostly concentrates on standards. He has an Impressionist approach to slow ballads, using lush chords while allowing the music plenty of room to breathe, as in his pastoral arrangements of "My One and Only Love" and "Bess, You is My Woman Now." Jimenez takes a different path than expected through Thelonious Monk's "Monk's Dream," playing the bass line with a softer touch than most pianists while emphasizing the lyricism of its theme, adding a few glistening detours along the way. He slows the tempo of "I Thought About You" to a crawl, working in a bluesy flavor, while "Black Orpheus" emphasizes the melody in a very subdued setting. Jimenez delves into less familiar works like the bittersweet ballad "Alfonsina Y El Mar" and the hymn-like "Un Oranger," two songs that deserve to be better known in the New World. His one original, "Lisa's Land III," is reminiscent of Bill Evans.
