Concert for George (Harrison)
Stumbled upon this a few weeks ago. It's great, and I'll have to get the recording. Just watching Ravi's daughter conduct the Indian orchestra alone is worth it.

The Beatles - s/t
(1968, Apple) 70's Capitol Purple label pressing; MASTERED BY CAPITOL in the deadwax, all sides; "Gene" on sides 2/4 deadwax [Gene Thompson, mastering engineer], "Jay" on side 3 deadwax [Jay Maynard, mastering engineer];
Another one of these wonderful impressive sounding Capitol purple label pressings, and what an incredible collection of songs. as Paul McCartney said in response to questions about whether it would have been better to release a single LP or two separate LPs: "It's the bloody Beatles' White Album. Shut up!"

Walked out for the morning paper and saw a box from Amazon on the front porch -
opened it and found Pink Floyd - The Endless River box set I had pre-ordered a while back -
CD and BluRay audio box set. It was due Nov 10. CD plays well ...
I'll listen and enjoy the bluray surround mix much later!

The Who - Quadrophenia
(1973, Track) TML in the deadwax
unfortunate sticker peel and writing on the label, but the LPs are in terrific shape. This album was astonishing first listen back in '73. I remember first hearing it at a friends house. The bass playing on The Real Me is incredible - and continues throughout, and thunderous drumming.

I like it quite a bit! I'm a fan of the older albums - grew up with Ummagumma and Meddle, DSOTM and WYWH.
It took me a while to make friends with The Division Bell - and, of course, this is built on out takes and tracks from that era -
but there is only 1 song with vocals, and the rest is instrumentals - and def a fine Floyd fest ...
I got the BluRay/CD version and have sampled both -
but I have mostly listened to the CD so far ... very fine sonics, fine tunes.

The Kinks - The Live Kinks
(1967, Reprise) -1B/-1C
I still remember how much we dug these guys when All Day And All Of The Night came screeching out of our transistor radio on the AM Top 40 station. a lot of energy that must have been their live show.
