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?

His Document recorded works 48-58 is also recommended. Think he made his first recordings sometime in the early 30's or late twenties.

I'm sorry I just don't have the vocabulary for writing reviews, that are likely to be helpful to anyone.

"American Beauty" Grateful Dead. The HDCD Rhino remaster. Very good indeed.

Started at the Credo in the B Minor Mass, which seems to be going quite well at louder than usual volumes. I'll tell you what, the little set is rather fine turned up a bit!

Suits the mood. Ferrier is incredibly sad in the Agnus Dei. Better turned up a bit ...

"Yard Style Christmas" by Jah Irest Artists.

Don't really do Christmas records usually but I'll always make an exception for this one.

Me neither, but I read somewhere that it was a bit disjointed due to taking parts of tracks.

Is the sound up to the remaster standard?

Al Green "White Christmas"

think there may be a theme developing today!

I suppose I should come out as being a big Morrissey and Smiths fan, recently dragging them all out again as, against all the odds my 16-year old son has become totally obsessed with them!
