What are you listening to right now? (VOL I)
Posted by: Tam on 06 June 2005
Anyway, to kick things off, I'm currently, and probably for most of the rest of this week, listening to Radio 3's Beethoven Experience. They're doing one of the piano concertos at the moment and (number 2 with Glenn Gould). Anyway, the experience thing probably needs its own thread, but, even on this cheapo radio it's proving fairly enjoyable.
So, what are you listening to right now?

Still trying to decide if I like this one. Quite a departure from her previous recordings.

...which was a reason for me to NOT get it. Me, the greatest CW fan on earth. Sniff...

I am here with your beautiful music that arrived this afternoon (thank you again).
Dear Haim!
A great record!
Hope it'll amuse you!

My father says he's going to buy some sheeps.
Our Deere is a great machine but after the first rounds you get as drunk!
The sun went down and I had to turn the tractor's lights on. I had no choice but finish the mowing tonight since tomorrow, after work, I am staying in town andgoing to an Irish Pub on the North side of Chicago to listen to Fred Simon play piano.
Hope evrything is fine with you.[/QUOTE]
Got home at 18.00.
My good friend and i are going to meet for some records and a couple of good red one.
Did you see my last post.
Got this record from Sweden and i can say it's very good!

More music to buy, more joy to share!

Cheers Haim!

I'm not a gun - We think as instruments
This is a record to have.
My humble suggestion is to get and listen to it.
Very good.

Excellent!
On a record?
Alas, no.
Unfortunately, most of my music collection is on cd.
Why "alas" and "unfortunately" ?
It's about music not the medium.

Very true indeed. Totally mis-worded on my part.

It is 10 P.M. and I am just back from the city. Tonight I had the pleasure to meet Fred Simon in person and hear him play at Mrs. Murphy's & Sons Irish Bistro.
It was two great hours of Fred's piano playing and company (when he took a break and we had a good talk).
Fred, thank you very much. I am looking forward to hear next time your musician wife as well.
Regards
Haim

After Simon in the car:

Posted on: 05 May 2006 by HR
Before Simon, on the 555/525/500:
At ProMusica, on Ken's machine, one of the only two 555 players that are currently in the US now. Sounded almost as good as on my NAIT/CD 3.5.
Ken gave a very interesting talk about his recording philosophy, his sound engineering master's class that he is teaching in the store and music in general. Ended up buying three NAIM Cds. They are much cheaper than any 555...
Good night,
Haim

Brian Matthew's Sounds Of The 60's on R2. This is really a little gem of a show tucked away early Saturday morning. Since the demise of Danny Baker, there is nowhere else to hear Motown, Stax and psychedelia at this time of the morning. Sure, there's a fair bit of Cliff, Lulu etc... but this morning he's played John Martyn, Cream and Love.
