What are you Listening To Right Now? - and more

The original post involved whisky, Frank - Lagavulin, of all things. My favourite.
Ahh, that explains it. My body rejects whiskey. Me being of Scottish ancestry and all, who'd figure? I'm also Russian/German on my Mothers side, Vodka's my drink of choice. It's water to me.

That Metallica record got me in the mood for Holocaust - Live: Hot Curry & Wine
(a scottish band mind you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocaust_(band))

I had some long, sappy, whisky fueled message typed out, but I deleted it. You know, machismo and all that. In short I enjoy y'all's company, and I've benefited a lot in a short amount of time from frequenting this thread, which is my new guilty pleasure. I'm going to sleep now, with my relatively decent earbuds in my ears and jamming this:

Sometimes (in audio) convenience and circumstance outweighs fidelity. Also, thanks to whoever (I can't recall) brought up Amazon Prime Music. I didn't realize this was part of my membership. I just enjoyed the incomparable shipping. Guten Nacht!
 
Dude, I got it all in one fortuitous stop at my thrift shop. My jaw hit the floor when I saw it all sitting there in near pristine condition. It was a red letter day for sure. Got the entire Ring cycle for $16.00 that day.

In all honesty, it's a difficult listen for me. I don't dig opera...but when the singers stop singing and the orchestra takes over this stuff is epic.

Actually, I meant (and read) R. Strauss. But, yeah, Wagner too.

Very nice find.
