What you say about G. Bensen is true,I just gave away all my LPs of his. But far be it for me to dismiss any artist. the lack of Classical music does however does strike me as a surprise at this site.

so many variables with classical...  different orchestras, different musicians, different venues... etc.  some recordings might have excellent sonics, but do not connect you in an emotional way to the piece.

also, much of the classical repetoire is not in print any more.  it makes it really hard to make a suggestion about a particular pressing that might be outrageously expensive, or just plain unobtainium.

look at the "chaconne' in bach's partita no. 2 for solo violin.  there are like 25 different versions of this same piece on youtube and they sound nothing like eachother.  my favorite is this one by itzhak perlman... enjoy.



he gets into the chaconne at 13:50 in the video

Bad Benson, by George Benson arrived today.  It has the cover of Take Five that Dan linked. 

I am going to settle down and give it a listen.

Thanks for the suggestion Dan!

This afternoon I pulled out some oldies.  They are from 1961 (Thundering Skies/Steam Trains), 1963(Mr. D's Machine, diesel locomotives) and 1978 (Power and the Majesty).  All three are Mobile Fidelity.  The first was #8 (very early), the second #11 (still pretty early) and who knows about the 1978, they had the logo they use today.

These are guilty pleasures.  But fun.

Not an Eros or Reduction but a tube repro.

I know those concerti, and I have never seen that record. And believe me I have looked at quite a few. Thanks for posting it. Jann O.

Will the circle be unbroken !  With the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Maybelle Carter, Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson, etc.  With 3 LP's that's a lot of play time!

Yeah, I've been listening to a lot of bluegrass lately. 

I've also been listening to most of the groups on the Daptone record label.  Seems like a lot of the backing band members are shared between groups.  Their recording studio is all analog tape.  Last one I listened to is the newest self titled album by Antibalas.  Their thing is afro-beat / funk - it's really good!

I'll bet you have already discovered Rounder Records.  They have a lot of good Bluegrass for some guys in Cambridge Mass.

I have never heard of Daptone records.  I'll look into it.

Today, I received a 3 LP set, 45 RPM, RTI pressing, limited edition of Bill Evans Selections from Live at Art D'Lugoff's Top of the Gate.  I think I screwed the seller, or she did by not saying which version it was. 

I bought it for $8 and $3.17 shipping.

It is incredibly well recorded.  I'm enjoying it very much.
