Priaptor Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 At www.lessloss.com, Louis has made some amazing recordings available for free download. They are excellent. Enjoy. Link to comment
kumakuma Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Alison Krauss & Union Station - Live Then maybe some Ben Webster. This thread is great. It's fun to see what other folks are listening to and to be reminded or music you haven't listened to in awhile. Keep 'em coming!

Priaptor Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 since I bought the "high res" Apple Beatles series, I listen to Abbey Road. The remastering was done extremely well especially that wonderful, "second side" tracks 9-16. I was more than impressed. Link to comment
bdiament Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Jazz Composer's Orchestra playing Carla Bley and Paul Haine's "Escalator Over The Hill" A jazz opera? They call it a "chronotransduction". Vocal performances from Jack Bruce, Linda Ronstadt, Viva (if you are old enough). John McLaughlin on electric guitar. A host of jazz all-stars. The heat of summer always makes me listen to this one. I've loved it since '71. (Don't even know if it can still be found. I had it on vinyl and found the CD set years ago at Tower - remember Tower?). "It's again".

kumakuma Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Miles Davis Ascenseur pour l'échafaud A very underrated album, IMHO.

driven -- by sound Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 The Best of Astrud Gilberto: 20th Century Masters Her lush yet, feather light voice is pure pleasure. It teases, it trails, off in the distance with a decay that is downright delightful. The next smooth, sweet & creamy Honey-Vanilla offering from Haagen-Dazs ought to be named 'Astrud' without a doubt! If you do not have this disc in your music library, it's a must have for Summer 2011 - highly recommended!!! driven | by sound - \"bats & audiophiles\"[br] Link to comment
philwright Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 http://www.classicalbumsundays.com/ Same idea, with friends, on a Sunday morning, on decent gear. ps apologies if it's already been mentioned on this thread, I haven't read through it all yet (but will, good idea - have just suggested it to my 19 year old son as something to do together) pps yes I know they use analogue - it is all about the music isn't it?
