What's Spinning Tonight?

What is it that you are spinning tonight?

 

 

The Delfonics – The Delfonics - 1970 original pressing - bought in Compton in 1994 at a nice almost friendly black record store - well they were friendly when they realised I was buying about 10 albums.

 

I don't think there is a recording from TBM that is not excellent...

Just brilliant…

A Little Bit of Miles….

 

I wasn't familiar with Jeanette Harris until Audire posted one of her albums on here. I wasn't able to get that one via Amazon so I purchased the one below ; a good listen FMVP. I'll get her others via her website.

 

Now that we finally have power back since Hurricane Ian (50 hours in the dark), I can start listening to music again...

 

Elbow – Flying Dream 1 + Asleep In The Back. a double shot of Elbow. their latest album is just as good as their first album 20 years ago - one of those slow burn bands and if you haven't got into them b4, time to check them out.

 

 

 

Sad Lovers and Giants - Feeding The Flame

 

 

 

 

 

@Audire - thanks for turning me onto Jeanette Harris; lady can play the sax, and her music is very enjoyable . I now have 4 of her CDs - Chocolate Vibez, Saxathrone, Saxified, and the one below - Summer Rain

 

Brahms - Emil Gilels, Ballade Op.10 No 4 in B major - YouTube

The 4 Brahms Ballades Op. 10 are among the most relevant pieces of classical piano music, but this version of the 4th from Gilels is really something special.

Even watched on YouTube with the audio sent to a consumer-grade pair of headphones, this interpretation is nothing short of mesmerizing.

His CD recording on Deutsche Grammophon, also available on Qobuz is remarkable as well, try also Michelangeli for a totally different take on the piece, or Gould.
