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:

Probably the best by Arcade Fire IMHO
First listen. CD 1 of 3.
Any good Pat?
Hi Kevin,
I'm just now onto CD 2. I was not familiar with the Legion of Mary makeup until getting this album. Lead vocals are shared with Merl Saunders, whom I am not familiar with, but brings a neat change of pace. Nice bit of funk and R&B mixed in so far. I also like how some tunes, like "How Sweet It Is" have a bit of a rougher edge. Certainly different from the more polished sound of the Jerry Garcia Band in the '80's.
From reading the Amazon comments, apparently there is other Legion of Mary stuff out there, but I don't have any of those tapes. So for me, this has been worth the purchase.
Peter Kruder Pink Floyd Mix
A live DJ mix of all the tripped out Pink Floyd bits that i love.
I did this for the FM4 Liquid Radio Show sometime in the 90ties and just recently found the DAT of this.
Download and Enjoy...

I LOVE that mix Denis...
Was thinking about getting this, how is the SQ in the sacd?
I have only listened to the redbook layer and the SQ is great.
'Learning to Fly' always sounded a bit 'mashed' - compressed somehow - until the SN2:HCDR playback. The lower noise floor helps to open it out into its constituent parts.
Much more enjoyable.

Interesting comment G. I have the original vinyl and 1997 Capitol CD. I've always thought both sound thick and heavy, lacking air and clarity, taking away from the musical enjoyment. Missing the Alan Parson's sound signature.

Earlier. For a friend's daughter who plays a Viola.

That's pretty much how I'd define it too but improved somewhat through SN2:HCDR. Not one that gets much play here but I may have another 'critical' listen today to see if I'm not imagining it.

Thanks for getting back on that, one to put on the list, great album good to hear sq is up to it.
Still love Toscanini's blazing fast 9th. '52 Recording.
Carol Kidd - Dreamsville on Linn Records label
excellent Sunday morning vocal Jazz
Nick Cave - Push the Sky Away
to my opinion one of the better 2013 releases
Vinyl bought yesterday. Junior with Buddy and accompanied with horns on this one. Good Chicago Blues.
Michael Hedges - Aerial Boundaries
acoustic guitar folk !!
