What are you listening to right now #61

Sadly, mine is not an original but it’s a very good Japanese pressing from 2006. Think I paid £90 for it in 2014. It does sound great though. I’ve seen a reissue of this in recent years but not sure what the provenance is.

Very nice. As far as I can tell the recent reissue isn't entirely pukka.

Fascinating, Amber Audio! Many thanks.
I take it he liked the album, too.
I am not a vinyl afficianado any more, lucky enough to be enjoying my favourites on mostly Brennan FLAC, or otherwise on cassette tape or CD.
I enjoy reading how you folks indulge in your vinyl, too, though.

PS - I see you're nae far fae here. Never forget the lovely Council man (Water Services) I met through my trips on work in the region. He was born in Echt. Always started his phone calls to me with the words "Iain, ah'll tell ye fit it is." Nice.

Yesterday evening I went digging through my c.d. collection, most of which is in our spare room.

Eventually found what I was looking for, but also dragged a pile of c.d’s out that I haven’t played for years.

You beauty

Polydor – 113 981-1. 2 x LP, Deluxe Edition, Reissue, 2002. This was a digital remaster from 20 years ago but great sounding nonetheless. Beautiful packaging.

Vinyl, 1974 Impulse / ABC pressing.
Giving this a spin to see if I want to get the new AS Verve as a possible upgrade. Any comments or comparisons on the AS from those who have got it. I’ll pass on Crescent a I have a US Van Gelder stamped original.

Sticking with your policy of being more selective - that's good. It's still January

You need the complete sessions, the two albums as originally released only scratch the surface of so much amazing music

Sure ain’t no Salvation Army band

The Wife used to dislike this album, but because there is a tune from this album in the film ‘Chef’ she now likes it…

Mine is not to reason why, mine is to spin the discs

I certainly would have sprung for a complete LP Box Set. It’s a pity they didn’t have courage to go for that I’m sure it would have sold easily enough if priced around the Same as the recent Light House one. This “amazing” music does deserve it. The only ‘complete’ LP version I know of is the copyright avoidance Doxy one and that is really far from complete with only 14 tracks compared to the CD’s 22.

Son de la Frontera, to remind me of many times being in deepest Andalusia.
