  1. Angelo Y Su Conjunto Modelo "Palo Cucuye" (Laslos Records) 1986 .... Junior Rivera (tres) + Junior Vega (tp) 🔥😍🔥 .... btw never released on CD ....
  2. Recorded @ Kingsway Hall London in March 1980 .... captivating program of "variations" ....
  3. These Beethoven Sonata recordings for DG are fabulous ....
  4. We seem to have a large segment of (active) board members in their 60's 🤓😇👍 ....
  5. I believe the shift away from the pure Southern Soul focus - to broaden the "customer base" - did the initial damage .... further missteps followed - and the industry changed ....
  6. True .... probably mirroring his importance as composer, arranger and soloist for the combo ....
  7. Bob Belden "Tapestry" (Blue Note Cover Series) 1997 ....
  8. Duke Pearson "Angel Eyes" (Polydor Records) 1968 ....
  9. The rainy weather is still lingering on, so some ☀️☀️☀️ is requiered ....
  10. The Emotions "I Don't Wanna Lose Your Love (M+M Mix)" (BBE Music) 2017 .... obviously teaming up with Earth, Wind & Fire was a jackpot for The Emotions .... this John Morales mix makes the Verdine White bassgrooves clearly audible .... and Wanda Hutchinson soars .... Disco/Funk borderliner ....
  11. Young Maxim Vengerov was brilliant ....
  12. No scepticism about the future (at least regarding the large picture), but I feel im my 60's the way to go is to enjoy things NOW .... btw just got an mail from my reliable wine dealer motivating me to subscribe Bordeaux 2023 and doing so by showing some strong price increases for past vintages .... this is true, but I'm not a "wine investor", really like to drink some good wine and when I'm gone my (still) extensive cellar will be with my son .... will he enjoy it ? Sell it ? It will no longer be my decision ....
  13. Angelo Y Su Conjunto Modelo "Aqui Esta El Son" (Laslos Records) 1986 .... rather late genre gem and a worthy mention regarding "Salsa Cover Art" 😎😇 ....
  14. Reminded by "HutchFan" .... wrote about this performance here before, highly recommended ....
  15. John Cale "Artificial Intelligence" (Beggar`s Banquet Records) 1985 .... Cover Art by Dennis Nechvatal ....
  16. Thereof Symphony 7 ..... recorded @ Herkulessaal München on May 25th, 1977 .... Rafael Kubelik`s Dvorak studio recordings (with the BPO on DG) are excellent, but the 70`s "live" recordings with the BRSO (consisting in parts of CPO musicians who fled from their home country in 1968) are more intense and they focus on the dark aspects of Dvorak`s later symphonies ....
  17. Admiration .... or addiction🧐🤔 ....
  18. As long as collecting was a "labour of love", selling it (in parts or as a whole) will be always at loss .... btw treat my collection nowadays as sort of "private museum" and returned to the listening practice of my youth aka spinning my faves more recurringly ....
  19. Thelonious Monk "Always Know" (Columbia Records) 1979 ....
  20. Tegernseerhof "Grüner Veltliner Ried Superin" 2020 .... the ripe fruit mirrors a great vintage @ Wachau ....
