Sibelius, Violin Concerto, Heifetz with the Chicago Symphony. JVC XRCD.
A bit bright in the upper registers on my system (never heard it on another) - I’d love to hear the original Living Stereo LP.

The one released as a single in '94.

First heard it as I strolled into a pub and it was belting out on the video jukebox … … remember those?

Totally transfixed was I.

A live recording, so the SQ here isn’t stunning, but the music is always interesting and adventurous.

One of my favourite albums of the last few years . :sob:

Ayo - Royal

Ayo (Vocals), Freddy Koella (Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Mandolin, Resonator Guitar), Denis Benarrosh (Drums), Laurent Vernerey (Electric Upright Bass), Gaël Rakotondrabe (Piano), Julia-Sarr (Vocals, Choir), Onane Zamati Vocals, Choir), Philippe Hammel (Harmonica), and Alexandre Leauthaud (Accordion, Bandoneon)

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… continuing on into the noon hour with Ayo’s ‘Royal’ album. Ayo has such a beautiful voice supported by some very talented musicians and they are sounding sublime! I do love this album…

Settling in for Citeh Atleti with some classic British reggae from Misty In Roots. I usually put on Live at Counter Euro or Wise and Foolish so for a change Earth. Great rhythms harmonies and a bit of brass with a political/eco message that belies its age. On lovely People Unite vinyl.

Carl and Passions/“So Tough” - The Beach Boys (1972).

Enjoyable enough, if rather a hotch potch of a BB album, yet utterly redeemed by Dennis’ tender addict’s balladry on side two and the sublime All This Is That.
