What are you Listening To Right Now? - and more

[Dave59]

The Cruel Sea - This Is Not The Way Home

More Aussie rock from the early 90s. This band had Tex Perkins on vocals

 

[Dusty Ol'Man]

Woo Hooooooooooooooo!!!

Yay!

 

[Fuzzbuster]

The hits just keep on coming!
So freaking cool.

 

[Dusty Ol'Man]

Nice selections however look out if you ever need customer service from JRiver!

Hey stranger! Haven't seen you in awhile. Welcome back.

 

[needforspeed]

OK, time to see if I can find some vocal selections that will get the @Delmarva seal of approval.

No opera, right? OK, let's see what we can find:

First time I heard this it blew me away, literally. Wife is home tonight, so my volume level is considerably more restrained.

Introducing The Sensational Fischer Choir - The largest choir in the world

1500 voices,

Polydor vinyl - 2371 656

Here's a taste, and the band I'm listening to right now

How would you like to be the guy to mic that up properly?

 

[Imanoldee]

A continuation of the Los Lobos discovery.

 

[Fuzzbuster]

Generally yes, you just have to be careful with adaptors (and cables/connections), and summing to mono. If anyone's interested, there is a classic document that was put out by Rane that explains a lot (I could post a link)...



Did you get out of the Army in spring/summer of '82? I went to the "Police Picnic" in Toronto, and Joan Jett opened, with some local acts, Flock of Seagulls (ecch), and I think Talking Heads (?). Joan Jett and band were treated very badly by the crowd.



Is that a regular 12" record or does it seem larger?

GJ

12"..

 

[Delmarva]

He's one that looks like it might be OK.

Some guy called Ormandy is swinging the baton. Apparently, there is an orchestra in Philadelphia. Who knew? And there's a bit of singing in there too. Some gang from Utah! by the looks of things. Wonder if they know The Osmonds?

I think I'll give it a spin next and see if it's any good. Looks pretty old, but apparently it plays at 33.3.

Columbia ML6416 (mono vinyl)

OK, there's that! Ya got me, LOL. When I say I don't like vocals in my classical I'm clearly voicing my disdain for opera.
Interesting choice, Kevin, as my copy of Handel's Messiah that I played this morning featured the same lineup out of Philly and Salt Lake City.

 

[Sgt.Pepsi]

Gonna call it a night folks. Thanks to everyone for sharing their music tonight. All the talk about Yammies has got me wanting one now. I do believe it's time get one. Keep listening and rescue audio when you can.

Yes, I noticed.

Here's a tune to look out for. Apparently, it's a Russian folk song. No idea what it's called in Russian, but in German it's Schwarze Augen (Black Eyes). Wonder if it's on any of my Red Army Choir recordings.

 

[Fuzzbuster]

Speechless:

The gentleman who owned these records was Dr Morris Atwood. He is listed as choir personnel on this recording. Papers with his notes on them inside the fold:
Wow. Like history...wonder if he was there when Dave played?

 

[Delmarva]

Been meaning to pull this out of the crate for a while now. Early Swedish heavy metal from the days before Swedish metal turned completely black..

Oz ~ Turn The Cross Upside Down 12" Maxi Single
1984 Wave 12-8401
https://www.discogs.com/Oz-Turn-The-Cross-Upside-Down/master/586661
(as suspected, sells for a small fortune today)

 

[Dusty Ol'Man]

Nice haul, the Telarc stuff is almost a given for being a winner.

I actually was looking for the Telarc stuff because of posts here. Thanks to you and anyone else who recommended it.
