Rachmaninov: 4 Piano Concertos, Paganini Rhapsody - Ashkenazy, Previn | Athenaeus - June 1, 2023

Indeed! In June they will also release Milstein's recording of Bach's Sonatas and Partitas. A great set! The thing is, though, that Tower Records released this one on SACD not ...

Shostakovich: Symphonies 8-10 - Petrenko | listening - May 29, 2023

A superb recording of Shostakovich's symphonies 8-10. Great virtuosity, full dynamics, a lot of details. Listened to in stunning stereo.

Aucoin: Orphic Moments - Rose | David Stanbury - May 27, 2023

This album has 2 discs of music. Oddly, the first disc is a SACD while the second disc is a conventional CD!

Eagles: Hotel California | George P - Today 09:09 am

Jethro Tull: Stand Up | Downunderman - April 24, 2023

Bit of a sow's ear sonically although the album itself is quite nice. The Tull would go on to do better albums but the kitchen sink character of this one has its charms. Ian ...

Roxy Music: Flesh and Blood | SACD-MAN (threerandot) - May 17, 2023

An album filled with wonderful grooves, but the standout here is "Over You" when the sax come in with the keyboard and there is this incredible outpouring of feelings of joy ...
