what was the last cd you bought?
Posted by: AL4N on 13 March 2004
so to get things off and running
queen--the highlander sound track
Jeremy Pelt - Make Noise following a 5* review in this month's Jazzwise. Wonderful stuff....




Used, but disc, booklet and case all in mint condition for 99p +P&P.


Another used CD, again all mint for 99p. Sometimes the descriptions posted by sellers are true. I heard this many years ago sounding divine on a B&O system driving Sonus Faber stand mounted speakers. Finally got a copy to try on my Naim system.
Don Cherry, Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, Eddie Blackwell - Old and New Dreams



From La Botega Discantica in Milan

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes


After a "reminder" from Debs (the Naim Nymph) on the "What are you listening to..." thread, currently a penny + postage down at the river.
Strictly for a hard-core.
Kempff: Beethoven Piano Concertos: The 78-rpm Recordings (1925-1942)
I am most curious about his early Beethoven PC1. This one is from 1925 when Kempff was just 29.
Three CD set. At £11 from HMV, it was a steal:

I had only two Joe Henderson CD's. I needed to correct that situation.

I would be interested to know what you think of the SQ and reproduction on this one Edward, I was tempted but at the moment happy enough with an early '91 CD and an SHMCD.

Sorry for the late reply, not been well due to ongoing problems from my stroke that i had a year ago.
Sound Quality for an album from the early seventy's is outstanding for both cd's, base is strong vocals are clear, good instrument separation. Unfortunately i do not have any other version of this album available to compare the sound quality too so cannot say how this compares to other version of this album, all i can say with confidence is that i am very happy with the sound reproduction and wound not hesitate in recommending this version to anyone thinking of buying this album.

Hi Edward - Thanks for taking the time to reply and I do hope that you are feeling better and getting back on track now? I'm pleased you like this recent edition I had read some mixed reports about it which is why I wondered what you thought of it. I will probably sit pat as I'm happy enough with the two releases I have. On a side note I meant to drop a message to you here a month or so ago to say that you have been and are acquiring some really good 'classic' and contemporary CDs and Hi-Res downloads at the moment, nearly all of which I have but its good to see someone building up a nice collection. Have you managed to expand your Tangerine Dream collection? Get well, take care and enjoy all that lovely music.

Hi Edward,
I'm delighted that you're enjoying the discovery of Tangerine Dream albums. As previously mentioned they (musically) fall into different styles becoming more commercial, less avant garde and experimental as time went on, not to say that this made them bad. The Virgin years up to Exit (1981) is my favourite period for their studio albums, Logos was recorded live (at the Dominion Theatre in London) and released in '82 and also well worth a listen. Best wishes for your ongoing health issues, playing music is something that often helps when we are not feeling one hundred percent.

I saw this LP recommended in an email from Lloyd Walker of Walker Audio. He recommended the vinyl but I got the CD. It is a great album, the end of the early Joni and the beginning of the modern era.
