I'm going through 2 boxes of LP's a friend dropped off last year. Now that I have a record cleaner I can clean and play them safely. I will post here only what I like, so don't worry that I will flood this thread with crap.

We all know Gaite Parisienne, and this version is OK (can;t listen to too much of this myself). The real gem on this record is Chopin's Les Sylphides on side 2.

Now this is one damn dynamic album. Holy cow!!!

Persuasive Percussion - vol 2

- a bit scratched and not in pristene condition, but still worth listening to. A bit bright but holy cow, if all records had this kind of sound ...
- I've also got vol 3, but it has no sleeve and looks really bad. We'll see.

This is Sinatra

cleaned up well but still sounds a bit closed in. I thought this album was a kind of Sinatra classic?

Herb Alpert - The Brass Are Comin'
- nothing special here, rather dry performances
