Found this "sealed" LP copy in 2011 for $5...

Forgot about it until tonight... Some great sax (Johnny Hodges), guitar (Kenny Burrell) & explosive, dynamic B-3 organ (Wild Bill Davis)... Phil Ramone was the recording engineer & Creed Taylor produced this 1963 recording... WoW!

That looks really cool Pete. Will check it out

This album of Mozart Violin Concertos is audiophile quality recording. Very dynamic, detailed, you can hear deep into the tone of the violin. Strong bass, excellent reverberation. Performance is sweet and inspired, great tempos.

Just ordered this one from the library. Should be in by the end of the week.

Looking forward to hearing it.

Thanks Rich.  :thumb:

This one is not listed in Tidal nor the Suffolk County Library system.  :(

Damn, I'm going to have to track this down the old fashioned way.   #-o

Yes, the whole album!!! Every couple years I put it on and remember that heady time in my life, 1989-92.
Another masterpiece from Nile Rodgers (and Don Was.)

Gorgeous choir music, modern composition, flawless singing, perfect balance, acoustic, articulation. Lyrics, tempi, just awesome. The Lamb is one of the best tracks, acapella without piano like the rest of the tracks.
