Morning Phase
Crosby, Stills & Nash. 2006 HDCD reissue of the 1969 album. Because I've had a hankering to hear Wooden Ships.
I'm actually listening to the Khatia Buniatishvili Franz Liszt album, but if you can't figure out why I posted this picture of her instead of the album cover, well then, I don't know what to say! 
Original Vinyl...
A very underrated album which I have on cd.
After much hesitation, I bought this album on recommendation of this guy at the record shop . With a name like that they'd better be bloody good or I'll take it back tomorrow and there's no amount of vaseline that will relieve the pain I'm gonna put him through. Original Vinyl...
The dude in the record shop was right - Hot Tuna were a spin off band from Jefferson Airplane; led by guitarist/singer Jorma Kaukonen. I have all their albums and my most favourite one is Phosphorescent Rat. Jorma is a great guitar man without descending into pyrotechnics. He plays songs - he writes pretty good ones too. America's Choice is the album that followed PR and contains pure, unadulterated sounds with amplified additives and the necessary polytonal ingredients to handle heavy loads. Invitation is a great track.
Thank you for the enlightment and recommendation Wat. Will explore their music further.
Suffice to say "dude" is safe!
Try their earlier albums first Tony and then go on from there.
This is your fault Tony as your listening to Hot Tuna put me on this direction for my listening today.
One of the greatest gigs of all time.
6 disc set.
On CD:-
Disc 2.
Nothing like a bit of Debussy on a Saturday morning, is there? On CD:
6 disc set.
Ewen, how does the SQ compare with the MOFI or recent SHM?
This is a fantastic album well worth checking out 
.
Vinyl
Agnes Obel "Aventine"
as played and recommended numerous times on
this thread, my second listen.
First two today both on vinyl.
A stone cold classic from 1990. Haven't heard it in years - still a great album (listening to original vinyl):
Guy Clark "Some Days The Song Writes You"
6 disc set.
Ewen, how does the SQ compare with the MOFI or recent SHM?
Haven't done a comparison yet but will do hopefully sometime this week. If memory serves me well you liked the SHM but I preferred the MOFI.
