Yep. It's a terrific record.

Now spinning this Elgar LP: Thanks!

Tidal Waves Music vinyl reissue

More Mose:

Mose Allison - I Don't Worry About a Thing (Atlantic, 1962) with the original version of "Your Mind Is on Vacation"

Abdullah Ibrahim - Fats, Duke & The Monk (Sackville, 1992) This CD compiles three LONG cuts, all recorded on February 18, 1973: - Track 1 previously unissued - Track 2 previously issued on Sangoma (Sackville 3006) - Track 3 previously issued on African Portraits (Sackville 3009)

Interesting & helpful. Vielen Dank!

NP: Joseph Bonner - Triangle (Whynot-Candid, rec. 1975) with Clint Houston and Billy Hart Terrific!!!

More Dvořák: IMO, Barbirolli's Dvořák 8th with the Hallé is one of the finest recordings of this work -- right up there with Kubelik, Kertesz, et al. soulpope -- I'm curious: Were these Vedernikov recordings originally issued on Melodiya? If so, did Denon have a Melodiya licensing & reissue program like Angel/EMI and Columbia did in the 1970s?

Disc 3 - Symphonic Poems

Disc 8 - String Quartets Nos. 15 & 16

Exactly!

Rush - Counterparts (Atlantic-Anthem, 1993) According to Geddy's autobiography, he and Alex had some conflict while making this record. Beforehand, they'd all agreed that it would be a stripped-down, guitar-centric, rock album. When Geddy showed up with his keyboards in tow, Alex got upset. But they worked through it -- and it's hard to argue with the final result. Geddy only uses keyboards sparingly, and the music is indeed as "guitar forward" as any of their albums since Moving Pictures. I especially dig this instrumental cut:

The former. Merriam-Webster sez: What does noice mean? Noice is a dialectal variant of nice. Where did noice come from? One of the many ways in which dialects of English differ around the world is in the pronunciation of vowels. In standard American and British English, the long i vowel in words like shine, tide, or size is a diphthong—linguistics jargon for two vowel sounds joined in one syllable to form one speech sound—that is pronounced with the lips unrounded. However, in some varieties of Australian English and New York English and in some dialects—such as Cockney English—the long i vowel begins with the lips rounded, in a position more similar to the vowel in words like short or lawn. Thus, the long i diphthong in these dialects sounds much like the diphthong in words like coin or joy. The slangy noice originated out of such dialectal pronunciation for nice.

I pre-ordered this album from Dusty Groove a few weeks ago, and it just arrived: Irakere - Grupo Irakere (Areito-EGREM, 1976) 2024 Mr. Bongo (UK) CD reissue Superb Latin Jazz/Afro-Cuban music, and -- since I'd previously only heard it as low-bitrate MP3s -- a GLORIOUS and MASSIVE improvement in AQ for this listener. ¡Sí! ¡Sí! ¡Sí! Noice!

Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 6 Pathetique - with the LSO

Now: Copland: Music for the Theatre; Music for Movies; Quiet City; Clarinet Concerto (William Blount, clarinet) / Dennis Russell Davies, Orchestra of St. Luke's (Musicmasters, 1988)

Next up: Another LP recently pulled from a shop's dollar bin. Lovely music.

Now spinning: Marilyn Horne & Leonard Bernstein perform Falla's El Amor Brujo [with the NYPO] and Ravel's Schéhérazade [with the ON de France] (Columbia Masterworks, 1978) First listen to a new-to-me LP that I picked up a few weeks ago. Initial impressions: I think the Ravel is a more persuasive than the Falla. When it comes to El Amor Brujo, Stokowki & Shirley Verrett with the Philadelphia O are still tops in my book.

Now spinning: Valerie Simpson - Exposed (Tamla, 1971) An AMAZING debut album.

Thank you for this, @mikeweil. I will investigate Skip Sempé, posthaste!
