#1 What Are You Listening To Right This Minute?
I don't recall seeing one of these types of thread on AT so what the hell, I'll start one.
So.... I'm listening right now to a rip of the first volume of " A Cellar Full of Motown"
This 2002 double CD contains 40 previously unreleased gems from the vaults of Hitsville USA.
If you are a Northern Soul lover, you'll have heard one or two of them as horrible sounding bootlegs, but here the tracks are pristine and taken straight from the original masters.
The Funk Brothers are on top form on these joyous historical documents.
The sound is top class too. It's what EL84s were made for

I've raved about her before...no excuses...I'm in love...
edit:
I know it's unashamed pop but I can't help selling her....it might be the timing, did I mention that I'm in love

There's a bit of Fat Freddy's Drop going on in that sound too IMO. Nice.SteveTheShadow wrote:

I'm having a live album fest this afternoon.
Right now I'm listening to Miles Davis, "Live Around The World"
The second track, "Intruder" has just started.
This album is one of the best sounding live albums I have.
The Hadouk Trio's bonus live CD companion to "Utopies" being another cracker. That's coming next.
I'm gone man

This afternoon I was listening to Classic FM via Squeezebox. Classic FM stopped transmitting, so I retuned to a classic radio station in Fort Worth, Texas.

"Human Nature" is in full swing now, Kenny Garrett's alto sax solo on this track is one of those all too rare moments that just leave you speechless.

Brand X : 'Unorthodox Behaviour' .... again .
Just testing the amp with 'Nuclear Burn' since I rebuild it from C3g/6B4G to C3m/300B .
There's a good chance I might listen to the whole album .
