Brian Wilson: In the Key of Disney

Disney Pearl Series CD


Found this one at the library this afternoon

From Amazon:
"The album that marries the vision of two men who shaped the image of modern California - Brian Wilson & Walt Disney. In this release, Brian re-imagines classics from the span of the Disney Music catalogue, from "Heigh-Ho" and "Whistle While You Work" from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to "We Belong Together" from Toy Story 3."

Fun album, very nice SQ.
Remember, it's all about the music........

Minty Columbia 6 Eye pressing.  Amazing sonics.  Picked it up for 99 cents at the Salvation Army Thrift Store.

OMG I'm so tired, and so many Sinatra records to clean. Bill, jump in the van and come down and do this for me would you?

I've got a nice copy as well, though in mono.

If I live that long - so tired.

Got to bed at 1:30am. up at 5:25am. Then 6 hours on the phone, just shoot me.

And these friggen' geeks on ebay rate all their vinyl VG+, regardless of the actual condition. Sent the 2 Kentons back this afternoon, and Moonlight Sinatra is going back as well.

Automatic Writing is the debut studio album by American experimental rock band Ataxia, released on August 10, 2004 on Record Collection. Ataxia consisted of then-Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist John Frusciante, Joe Lally of Fugazi, and Josh Klinghoffer, Frusciante's subsequent successor in the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Minty RCA Victor shaded dog pressing.  Amazing music, but then again anything with Heifetz and Piatigorsky is guaranteed to be a winner.

Looks kinda scuffed, but I'm too tired, and just poured a big-ass glass of wine.

One of my favorite readings of "Pictures", second only to the Ansermet/OSR

And somehow, knowing that you found one for only 99 cents makes it sound just a little bit better, doesn't it (at least in my mind anyway  :D )
