What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.IX)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2013
With 2013 upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

On aged vinyl that's so thin it feels like a flexidisc:
It's the only album of theirs I feel the need to own.

Days of Future Past is a good one

On vinyl from 1973. I did not listen to it much as a teen but now thoroughly enjoy it. I especially like the sounds of the electric guitars on this one due, I suspect, to engineer Alan Parsons.
Vinyl - atmospheric and sort of sultry (but in a not overtly sexual way)

Ha! I knew it BigH47. I saw a trend developing over the past three days. So how do you like it?
No Better Than This [VINYL] Label: Rounder
This album was discussed in the 'Identifying newer AAA vinyl' forum recently. Recorded in MONO, in Sun Studios and other locations, produced by T Bone Burnett into one mic. First impression is its like having a live band playing in your living-room and that's because it was actually recorded live.The songs are beautifully crafted about life death and growing older.

I have this - It's brilliant!
I'm listening to this on borrowed CD. I rather like it and think I might buy it myself (although on vinyl probably, I'm not that interested in all the extra gubbins)
One of my top 5 live albums, CD:-

A warm snap on the way, so in anticipation...
Hi Dave,
The tolling of the Church Bell on last track, “Forgotten Reprise” is very poignant. The father of Hans and René passed away while making the band a meal at the small church in the tiny village of Maurik, where they recorded the album. This was also Anneke's last recording with the band. I recommend seeing her 'live' with her own band or as an acoustic duo with Danny Cavanagh from Anathama. I'll post in my gig list if I find her next tour dates. BTW, The Gathering have just started 'live' dates again in Europe, so hopefully a UK visit is on the cards.

RSD double LP 45rpm..
LP2...
I was listening to this the other day after a long absence of listening to loads of other stuff! Forgot how good this was, and a forum favourite.
Good call apyel.
Thanks Dusty,
I prefer their later release, All Rights Removed, which will get a play on vinyl soon!
