What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XIII)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2017
2017 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.
Last year's thread can be found here;
Fans of the Jayhawks should listen to this one.
Just dug out a bunch of old albums that I haven't played in awhile.
A + 3 | WAV
(2007)
Sometimes I just have to play something by Simon Posford from one of his various incarnations, Younger Brother, Hallucinogen or Shpongle. This one was a follow up to a Flock of Bleeps.
He of the The Landreth Brothers solo album.

Thanks for posting this Quad33! I didn't know this one. I am going to check it out on Tidal.
Regards, Jeroen.
Think this will be the last for tonight.
Original UK vinyl from 1981. Received very, very mixed reviews when it first came out, but I think it has aged extremely well (although the cover is STILL pretty horrible):
Lenny/NYO: Brahms Symphony No.3
Emotionally charged like watching a Hollywood tear jerker. Quite urgent giving the music huge dynamic and *animated* effect. As usual, Lenny's reading, particularly, from his NYP era is more theatrical than usual.

I've been playing most of those albums today! Thanks for introducing me to this music, a while ago.
Favorite Snetberger album:

Just curious.
You'll love the Klyde successor Krystal w when it's time.
Testing out a new addition to the LP12...
