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?

Richard great choice. One thing though try and get a copy of the Japanese issue of this as it is soooooo much smoother sounding than the US or UK ones and IMO just makes it an easier album to listen to. As I always found it a bit fatiguing to listen.


Thanks ewemon. I will try and get the Japanese pressing. Where would you recommend?


Try eBay you may find it pop up for about 8-10 squid but IMO well worth it.

Just trying out the SL2s! I would think that you will miss the Utopias once they have gone back. I certainly did.

Never ordered anything direct from Japan as postage has always been an issue. Have you?

In preparation for the Eurovision Song Contest I am listening to Deep Purple Made in Japan.

God help me.
