Just ripped the Greatest Hits album of Fleetwood Mac (1988), The Cars Greatest Hits (1985) and Eric Clapton's Slowhand.

So far my favorite has been Mac's "As Long As You Follow"

So far I've been listening to them in my car and they sound incredible, can't wait to pipe them to my Labs!

I love that album.

I'm listening to the Greatest Hits by Bjork.

It is pretty great! All spectacular tracks and every one an outstanding recording.

Beocord 6000 being used!

I just scored 10 various recording tapes today in a thrift store.

I'm now listning to a Sony HF90 with '80s Madonna on the A side and B is som Bruce Springsteen.

It sounds good but I'm not a fan of the music.

Smashing Pumpkins' "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" on a BC3300 in the dining room system.

Bought the BC3300 a couple weeks ago for a tenner on Ebay (advertised as non-working).  Took a chance on a belt kit from Martin.  Got it running this morning. 

I bought this fourth (!!!!) cassette deck so I could swap out my BC2400 in the dining room system and put her in the guest bedroom with my BM2400, BG3404, and BV S40s.

My initial impression of this deck is that it is the least of the four (BC4500, BC2400, BC1900, BC3300) I own.  However, I do dig the search function it has.

 

listening to cd's by the recently deceased Jackie Leven.

A real musician, and a real artist, sadly overlooked commercially.

I saw him live about 10 times, and also used his recordings a lot to sell B&O speakers when I did that for a living - very fine sounding recordings.

 

RIP

I'm currently test recording an old BASF chromdioxid 120 from the late 1970's.

The Beocord 6000/8000 were set to European tapes for ultimate recordings and though I was not really looking due to my Beocord 6000's limited recording options with no HXpro, calibration or dolby C to enhance a recording I located by chance some 40 odd tapes Phillips, BASF from mostly the '70s which were still well kept with what seems like recorded just once.

The original double LP Prince The love symbol album is going on tape. It's varied and FUNKY!

1. "My Name Is Prince" (Prince, Tony Mosley) – 6:39
2. "Sexy MF" (Prince, Levi Seacer, Jr., Tony Mosley) – 5:25
3. "Love 2 the 9s" – 5:45
4. "The Morning Papers" – 3:57
5. "The Max" – 4:30
6. "Segue" (spoken word with Prince and Kirstie Alley) – 0:21
7. "Blue Light" – 4:38
8. "I Wanna Melt with U" – 3:50
9. "Sweet Baby" – 4:01
10. "The Continental" – 5:31
11. "Damn U" – 4:25
12. "Arrogance" – 1:35
13. "The Flow" (Prince, Tony Mosley) – 2:26
14. "7" (Prince, Lowell Fulsom, Jimmy McCracklin) – 5:13
15. "And God Created Woman" – 3:18
16. "3 Chains o' Gold" – 6:03
17. "Segue" (spoken word with Prince and Kirstie Alley) – 1:30
18. "The Sacrifice of Victor" – 5:41

too much Corinne yesterday :-) so I have switched to Melody 

until I went searching for a picture of her I did not know her sad backstory :-(

we are blessed to have gained this singer and voice ... but the path she had to take to get here was a hard one

some extremes - two new (for me) artists

Lana Del Ray (already discussed elsewhere on Beoworld) and Stacey Kent

"Video Games" (look for the YouTube too)

 

Talking Heads "Little Creatures."

On vinyl.

In the garage.

In the garage.

I would listen to music in the garage except for the fact that it is 48 deg in there!

Yeah, I was barefoot wearing shorts.

On the other hand, it's too hot in the summer to hang out in the garage.

Lest anyone think I'm living in the garage, it was back into the proper listening chair in front of the best system this evening.

Started with some Jethro Tull on vinyl.

"Hope you don't mind if we sit this one out"

"And your wise men don't know how it feels..."

 

Writing a paper listening to my study playlist - aka classical. I'm alternating between my Form 2s and audio-technica ATH-3s.

Tonight -> Philip Glass, all | The Czech Philharmonic, Play

Vide Cor Meum. The beautiful opera music from that well know romance "Hannibal"

Lana Del Rey here too... again

Lana Del Rey here too... again  

yes, she is good ... and I have been listening to her daily, but yesterday I dived deep into:

 

Just started my venture into DVD-A with Fleetwood Mac - Say You Will. Playing through my BS4500 tour de force system

 

From the looks of it, I need to check out this Lana Del Rey chic! Quite the popular gal

During a study break, I went to my FLURS and bought this

Had to go listen in my car since I made myself leave the iPod at home (for the sake of productivity). Not a bad recording for mainstream rock btw, smooooth bass and no overly boosted highs - perfect. Not as mellow as the later albums, however.

Sitting in the library now jamming to On Call, in my head of course.

Edit - just simply had to praise this album again. Definitely the best guitar I've heard in a while!

We ain't even been to the ocean...

Wonder what new piece of Beo gear I need to buy myself?
