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?

Mark,

That sounds like a lot of fun. Reminds me a lot of ten years with my daughter, playing the French Horn in a marching band, a symphonic band and a jazz ensemble, not counting all the hours of practice at home.

Regards,

Haim

Of course she's the most hated woman in America and that's why I love this album. Positively the only punk rock record to shock me with it's rage and rawness on the first listen. Great for those times when you feel like blowing up the world.

"Abraxas" Santana. The 30th anniversary remaster, released in in '98, which was actually the 28th anniversary but who's counting? Great stuff.

Surely one for The Great Albums list. I think that was the pinnacle for Santana - the album where they got everything so right.

Courtney Pine - Destiney's Song and the Image of Pursuance

Not too sure. Perhaps a bit too free style for me. However, the sound is awesome on the 555 Smile

The second disc of the Haitink/LSO Beethoven cycle finds things much improved with really stunning readings of 4 and 8. The sound is not perfect, but Barbican harshness is far preferable to the horrible woollyness that I am convinced is the result of some processing to make it less harsh on the Eroica.
