Alec Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 I almost set for my China trip, I just need to load up my mp3 player. If I went with a theme I could include: Chico Hamilton -Far East Polo, Danny And His Swing Stars - China Boy Garland Wilson - China Boy Cal Tjader - China Nights (Shina No Yoru) Benny Goodman & His Orchestra - On a Slow Boat to China Freddie Hubbard - Asiatic Raes Or, just copy a Mosaic set (or two) and listen straight through. I have some favorites set, but am looking for suggestions from my far more knowledgable board mates! What would you pick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Д.Д. Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 (edited) GREAT opportunitiy to listen to Morton Feldman's String Quartet (II). 4.5 hours You can even listen to it twice - and still have some time for an in-flight movie.

sidewinder Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 At least one of the Commodore Mosaics (after vinyl-to-CD transfer) or maybe a Keynote box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 You could probably get through 'The Ring' in that time. Just ring ahead to ensure any stops coincide with changes of opera or act. You might even get the hostesses to do the safety bit as Rhinemaidens.

DTMX Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 Philip Glass: Einstein on the Beach. It's only two CDs worth of material, but it feels like 14 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about Mahler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 Well, the aircraft noise means you can't pick anything too quiet... I've even found it hard to hear an Alan Silva CD on a plane ride. Hope you got good stoney-phones! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son-of-a-Weizen Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 What if it cures and don't wanna come out? No way! Instructions for Taking Ear Impressions 1. We are manufacturing a FULL SHELL earpiece. We require the ear impressions to be a full impression including: Crus of Helix, Tragus, and Antitragus. 2. Impressions must be made from silicone impression material only. 3. It is very important to have an “Open Mouth Impression” taken to the second bend the ear canal. This is accomplished by doing the following: a. Open mouth wide when impression material is being injected into the ear. b. Do not close mouth until the impression material has completely cured Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can compare the Madge version with the Ogdon (Chuck, were you at the Madge Chicago performance?) Not a Madge fan - I admire his "pluck" but not the results. I'm sure Ogdon's (sometimes wayward) recording will be surpassed but don't think I will live to hear it (or afford it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How fast is your server? (If I can find it in this mess...) {sorry, I meant the Ogden is the one that gets a bit emotional. The Madge is more precise.} Edited June 28, 2005 by rostasi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
