I attended four of those shows. The most intimate setting in which I ever saw the Dead. It’s a shame but most of the 24-track master tapes of those shows got erased.

I was going through my Blue Note cds and discovered I had two copies of this Connoisseur Edition cd and figured I might as well listen to one of them!
Frank Foster “Manhattan Fever”
Followed by
Jimmy Smith “At the Organ, Volume 1” Japanese RVG edition lp-facsimile cd. The way the system sounds today this one just leaps out of the speakers.

Herreweghe is really the master of Baroque. Will have to dive into this one.

I think I have purchased this White Album in 5 formats now. Vinyl, 8 track tape, cassette tape, CD, and digital file. It wasn’t really popular when it first came out but I always liked it for the simplicity and freshness (for lack of a better word) of the recordings.
Apart from 8 track, the same here.
Possibly my favourite album, certainly played the most, out of my Beatles collection.
8 track was a monster. Big brick hanging out of the car’s dashboard…!
Mine gets played the most too. I never really got the later albums as much as everybody else seemed to. A few cuts from this one or that one but the White Album is the only one that gets played start to finish and I know all of the words, music, and which track plays next.
Yes and his two “Leipzig Cantatas” releases on the Phi label are particularly special.
I agree.Same here… They had pretty much spit up by then and the later albums are more pasted together.
I quite like Rubber Soul.
Rubber Soul. Yes. Forgot about that one. I didn’t realize that they had been together as a band in one form or another since 1957 or so either until the other day. Now I know where they got so much of the late '50’s rock and roll / blues / jazz influence from.
I have a couple of albums from the early Hamburg period. Basic Rock’n’Roll music. Songs not longer than 2 mins…!

That’s cool. You should charge a fee for admission to the museum. 
When I cash in my chips I will get the family to have my vinyl used to build a coffin and I will take all the music with me…
