Whats on your turntable tonight?

Late afternoon listening began with, and has moved on through:

Bruce Springsteen, some sides from "Live/1975-1985"

James Taylor, "Sweet Baby James" (Rhino reissue and original)

Nothing, the power has been off for two days. Withdrawl symptoms getting close to DT level.

WOW! Dexter Gordon's "Dexter Calling" 45 rpm reissue from the Blue Note reissue series by Hoffman and Gray produced by Analogue Productions and Music Matters. This piece of vinyl is simply phenomenol! Blue Note 4083-45.

Did you see that the first two records in the Music Matters series are now sold out? The mail order retailers who still have a few copies have already increased their prices. When these are gone, they will never be seen again.
