ECM Records continues its long tradition of publishing solo albums with music performed on the double bass. I think the first was an album by Barre Phillips in the early '70s. Then albums by Dave Holland, Miroslav Vitouš, David Darling, etc. More recently there was an album by Larry Grenadier.

A rainy afternoon, perfect for some blues:

With a nice glass of a well aged Beaune 1er cru.

 Really enjoy Mindi's talent on the Sax!   This is an early album of hers where she does mostly instrumentals....I like her Sax talent better than her voice though...Recorded well!    Folks who enjoy Smooth Jazz will find the entire album enjoyable!

Just the other day I was listening to the 4th from this set, conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin. I liked it very much, the performance is magnificent and the recording is beautiful. It remains a mystery to me the anonymous external design of the current Berliner Philharmoniker downloads. Perhaps they are embarrassed to be the best and strive not to stand out in comparison to any other no-name orchestra in these politically correct times? 🙂

Melnikov uses Blüthner piano in the context of a historically informed performance.

Yes, I listened to the 4th too and liked it very much. Even if not all 10 symphonies are as well performed (I'm working my way through), the entire set at 24-bit (48 or 96 kHz, varies by piece) for $69 is a very nice price: https://www.berliner-philharmoniker-recordings.com/mahler-symphonies.html

I'd Like to share 6 play lists I did on Spotify- I do plan on turning them into playlists for Amazon HDMusic

six Play lists so far with 100 songs each range in variety - Headphone Ultimate Playlist Vol.1 - 6

they are collaborative so anyone could add songs after the 100th- feedback appreciated ;-)

Need to check that out. Is it any good?

This performance of the Concerto is unlikely to become definitive, but I like it, maybe because I'm often impressed by HIP versions of works from the Romantic era. The second part of the concerto is less convincing then first.

Forgive me, but I am new to Spotify.  I was able to see your #1 playlist, but unable to move to the other 5.  How do I accomplish that?

I think this one will be worth a purchase.
