Nick Drake "Pink Moon" (Island) 1972 - LP and CD Cover with different colorization..... -
(RIP) Is Jack Wilson (Atlantic & Blue Note 60s pianist) dead?
soulpope replied to monkboughtlunch's topic in Re-issues
Mike, thnx a lot for your indepth feedback....sounds like two "Friday acquisitions" to me ...... -
based on the excellent Pastoral Symphony i know, these seems to be a must buy....but not for the faint hearted for sure....
-
A gem, for sure. And what a nice selection of pieces. Only slight drawback IIRC is that John Heard's bass is picked up in a rather boomy manner. sounds like this being a consensus "must buy" !?!
-
another goodie featured in the "Select"..... This is not included in the Carmell Jones Mosaic Select. thnx for checking......obviously i was thinking about the CURTIS AMY Mosaic Select......

Female Duo from Spain, riding the "disco wave" in the late 70`s, having a lot of airplay and matching subject time`s aesthetics.......

Buy the LPs Actually, I suspect Universal Japan may have issued them on CD way back. MG Released in Japan - "Signifyin`" in 2002, "Possum Grease" in 2005

Speaking of Guido Balestracci, this fabulous original Symphonia release was reissued on Pan Classics recently : Highly recommended (also the recording itself is stunning....) !!
-
this looks interesting indeed - there are not too many Somis recordings, I believe the was a CD on the Symphonia label featuring some of the violin sonatas.....but again, out of memory..... Edit : the Symphonia CD as mentioned before features inter alias the following : Sonata for violin & continuo in A minor, Op 1/1 - Giovanni Lorenzo Somis Sonata for violin & continuo in C major, Op 6/4 - Giovanni Battista Somis
-
That`s a nice one - and, if not being mistaken (just out memory...), featuring the magnificent Guido Balestracci on bass viol....

Smallish Stereo Speakers with Decent Sound
soulpope replied to Teasing the Korean's topic in Audio Talk
Some of the Danish producers aren`t too shabby either.....would see a used Jamo 8 Concert (or Jamo C 803 being virtually the same speaker) in good condition as a must buy anyday...... Generally speaking build quality is (also) important with these "book shelf" speakers and most of them requiere additionally stands to unfold their potential.....this altogether (at least from my perspective) "drives" the price above a USD 500 range... Recently I`ve read a interesting review of an stylish UK (again !!!) bookshelf speaker http://www.whathifi.com/review/q-acoustics-concept-20 where the asking price is 500 pounds, but the obligatory requiered stands cost another 200 Pounds (just to make clear, this speaker for sure is not a target for "Teasing the Korean" neither price- nor basssoundwise !!!!) -
Smallish Stereo Speakers with Decent Sound
soulpope replied to Teasing the Korean's topic in Audio Talk
It's funny, I just re-read the original message and noticed the word "bass". (Forehead slap) soulpope is absolutely right. LS3/5A isn't (ahem) noted for its deep, resounding bass. My mistake. Thanks soulpope. no problem...was actually fun to check on some of the clones and probably unveiled additonal inspiration to unpack my old Rogers LS3/5A and give them a run......listen to some music and wait until Scott Dolan comes up with further good speaker ideas with a price tag of USD 500 ..... btw really like your "profile" photo -

Peachtree D4 USD 600-700 http://www.peachtreeaudio.com/d4-bookshelf-speakers.html Era D4 USD 600 http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/era/era.html Stirling LS3/5a V2 USD 1.700 http://www.guildfordaudio.co.uk/store/manufacturer.php?category=§ion=Manufacturers&cattitle=Browse%20By%20Manufacturer&page=manufacturer&manufacturer=Stirling%20Broadcast Harbeth P3ESR SE USD 2.500 http://www.harbeth.co.uk/uk/index.php?section=products&page=p3esr&model=p3esr BUT....as "Teasing The Korean" is looking for good bass sound, probably LS3/5A clones are not the way to go.... -
Music and The Great War (1914-18)
soulpope replied to A Lark Ascending's topic in Classical Discussion
The composer asserted that he was not conscious of the influence of World War I when composing the 5th symphony, but added that "not one of us is the same as we were before the war". Nevertheless it`s documented that Nielsn wrote about a "evil motif" intervening in course of the first movement...... Probably a good reason to play again the great interpretation by Michael Schonwandt and Dnso released on Dacapo...... -
