Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[fredblue]

Tale Spinnin' - Weather Report

 

[marpow]

Led Zeppelin How The West Was Won, Disc 2, 5.1, PCM 24/48Khz at 72db. Great disc to warm up the machine.

 

[skherbeck]

Opeth - Heritage 5.1 DVD mixed by Steven Wilson... after months of mixing stems, it feels good to finally take a break and listen to something professionally mixed! This is the beginning of what I hope will be a long stretch of listening to all my discs that I've never spun before... so far it's a great place to start! (And the cover is perfect for a spooky Halloween weekend):music

 

[skherbeck]

Barclay James Harvest "Gone To Earth" 5.1 DVD... first time ever listening to these guys (and I have 3 of their surround discs!)... I dig it so far!

 

[Lute]

Reger und seine Zeit (SACD) - Brahms, Bruckner, Reger, Schönberg
Opus Vocale
Volker Hedtfeld, conductor

Finally have some time to catch up on my listening. Just chillin to some classical.

Just put on the studded snow tires on the car - getting it ready for the winter season. Taking a break on the couch and listening to some great old Quad:

So much amazing music on that Ten Years After album.

Yes, it's great, feel very lucky finding it for a very nice price on Ebay incl. the vinyl.

Sweet surround mix

PATTO!!!!
I know I bring them up every chance I get ...it could be that I worked with the late great Ollie Halsall without even knowing about his musical genius...and I also met the great John Halsey last year (who played in LPs like Lou Reed's "Transformer" and both played in the Rutles)

This song, "Singin' the blues on Reds" was written after they opened for Ten Years After in a tour, especially in a show in Scandinavia where Patto played their asses off and nobody payed any attention to them ...and when TYA showed up, they were really rusty and under rehearsed and EVERYBODY WENT WILD!!!!
Listen to the lyrics...especially the spoken part....

(BTW, all three official Patto LPs are OOP but are definitely worth it, even their 4th unreleased one, Monkey's Bum is great just DO NOT BUY ANY ARKARNA Label ones, they are all ripoffs...more info here)

Just put on the studded snow tires on the car - getting it ready for the winter season. Taking a break on the couch and listening to some great old Quad:

:yikes NO! I hate winter....on another note, gonna be 80 here today.

Yes, not enjoying it to much, but a white christmas is always nice - and I get to use the snowblower - and that is fun

80 is what we have on the varmer summer days, now it's 50, sunny and the trees have all those amazing autumn colours. Makes you want to take the camera out for spin.

Well, I agree with everything you said....I finally bought a nice snow blower 2 years ago after we got a massive snow storm that pretty much paralyzed us...


Oh, and last night I listened to BREAD's Greatest Hits in QUAD. That was my surround event for the night.

LOL! As the saying goes: It takes one to know one.

A recent purchase, there are some great surround mixes in this set, and nice music
