What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.VIII)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011
With 2012 almost 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:

Hi Chief,
I found ths thread from a guy on gearslutz who is a fan of Peter Katis, who produced the first two Interpol albums, as well as The National & many others. Peter reply's to questions thrown at him about recording techniques etc, and does give some interesting insights to his Interpol involvement. I will check out some of the bands he mentions in his replys.
Small Town Story
Brahms' cello sonatas, given a warm, deep glow by Lynn Harrell and Stephen Kovacevich.

EJ, I'm intrigued by your comments and will try to source this seemingly hard disc to find. I wonder if "warm, deep glow" and Kovacevich can work in the same sentence? I guess I haven't heard him much in the context of chamber music so I look forward to this one. I see another Brahm's disc with du Pre as well...

This is a lot mellower rendition than his earlier 9th.
This set does not have his usual *insect* like precision.
This was his last recording before he passed away.
It's released on Mon 25 June, but here's some sounds and background...

Now some medal.
This can be had for 1p on CD at the mo.

Another good find Denis, mine's on order.
Nice to meet you yesterday.

Hi George,
Nice to meet you at last as well.
This was another prompt I received on Facebook today.
Another one I received last year was Jo Hamilton - Gown (a must for all 'Air Piano ' fans 
)
It's released on Mon 25 June, but here's some sounds and background...

The samples sound great. Good musicians with a known pedigree. Let's hope Tevor Horn still has his 'recording ears' in good working order.
As George says, another good recommendation from Denis - thanks.
John.
