    Binaural is for headphones. Recorded with a dummy head mike, the soundstage/imaging on headphones is incredibly accurate and convincing. There are way too few of these recordings since the early stereo era to satisfy we headphone listeners. In those days "Binaural" was often seen on LP covers.

    This album has been with me since it came out. A favorite of mine too.

    If you want to look for an unpopular and rare offering from the late Sixties, find Cro Magnon. Not sure about the spelling. Haven't seen it since 1970. A friend and I liked it, everyone else we knew hated it.

    GREAT SCORE! Classic Roxy, and that Petty album is a classic with some of his better songs IMHO--I have that one on vinyl too. Here are a couple of my favorites from that LP.....






    I really think Petty is underrated by many. Great American rock and roll, tight band, melodic songs with hooks--there's a reason George Harrison, Rick Rubin, Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan, etc. all worked with him...(couldn't find a good recording of "Finding Out" on Youtube--another classic from that Petty LP)....

    Various Artists - The Greater Antilles Sampler
    (1976, Antilles) KENDUN in the deadwax; mastered at Kendun studios



    An HPB pickup this week. Antilles was the US sister label for Island. includes tracks by nick drake, fripp & eno, steve winwood, tim hardin, grimms, white noise, june tabor, dave swarbrick, phil manzera. I get a kick out of the 25 cents printed on the record label - those samplers were basically give-aways. The Grimms include Neil Innes from Monty Python and members of the Bonzo Dog Band.

    The Pentangle - self titled
    (1968, Reprise) 1970 pressing without W7 on the label



    I picked this up today, an upgrade. The LP is in excellent shape, and plays great with HUGE space between the instruments.

    Edgar Winter's White Trash - Roadwork
    (1972, Epic)



    performances recorded at the Apollo Theater in NYC and the Whiskey A Go Go in LA. Listening to side 1/4. a fun production note from wiki:
    At the start of their appearance at the Apollo Theater, the unidentified host who introduced them chided their evident late arrival saying (slightly off mic):

    "Y'know, every time we used to go outta town for them jive jobs they give us, they always say 'black folks: late, can't be on time,' now look at the White Trash!" (chuckle)

    The comment was met with laughter from the audience. After the introduction, the audience again broke out into sporadic laughter, possibly not expecting much from the band as it consisted of all white musicians, but their doubts were quickly dispelled when the band launched into "Cool Fool", a funky R&B song.

    This snippet appears on the original vinyl release at the beginning of Side 4.

    Bob Brookmeyer - self titled
    (1963, Crown) Mono pressing; CLP 5318



    featured John Williams and Red Mitchell. A $1 yard sale pickup last month. In the past couple of months I have snapped up at least 3 Brookmeyer LPs, the first I've heard of Brookmeyer's stuff (but not of Jim Hall who accompanies on guitar on the other two LPs). He started out playing in Gerry Mulligan's Quartet in the early 50s. Great stuff.
