  12. Some more vinyl questions!

    in Audio Talk

    Posted · Edited by Stefan Wood

    The audiophiles go for the RCA Victor Living Stereo "Shaded Dog' labels (late 50's - early 60's), Mercury Living Presence Stereo (same time frame), Westminster stereo "Blue back" (back of the jacket is in blue), British EMI's, and probably many others that I can't think of. Lyrita is a good example of a very fine sounding classical label that isn't as well known. But you can't go wrong with Deutche Grammophone, some Columbia Masterworks, and many others that are usually found in the dusty classical record bins.

  19. Celia Cruz RIP

    in Artists

    Posted

    Celia's work DEMANDS for a box set treatment. Her fabulous work with Sonora Poncena, to her 60's efforts with Tito Puente (if you are looking for more suggestions, buy ANY Tico reissue date with Puente and Cruz; they make music that smoked right from the beginning), and her work with the Fania All Stars (Live at Yankee Stadium -- -woosh!), her collaborations with Willie Colon, Johnny Pacheco, etc, right up to the present. I saw her play at George Washington University a year or so ago, and she is simply TIMELESS. What really worked for her was her vocal power and clarity, and what made her unique in the Latin world was her masculine voice. Sure, you can say that Celina Gonzalez (also from Cuba, and would have been as highly regarded at Celia but she stayed in Cuba), Albita and others also have masculine voices, but none had the total package that Celia had. Or the costumes, and wigs....... :o) She will be missed.

  20. NEW, NEVER HEARD, DIZZY & BIRD FROM UPTOWN

    in New Releases

    Posted

    I'll definitely buy it!

    I'll believe in miracles when those unissued Atlantic sessions get issued..... ;) Now THOSE have me drooling! Not that the Parker/Gillespie live date isn't something not to drool over...... which shows what kind of jazz gets my juices flowing. I love listening to 40's bebop, especially Parker and Gillespie, but they don't have the same impact on me as when I first heard Larry Young's Unity or Miles' Bitches Brew or even Matthew Shipp's Multiplication Table. I guess I'm funny that way....
