Spandau Ballet: True



Kind of early 80s rock set to a mid 70s disco beat.

Not my cup of tea. Only a Crack House 53 cent special, so no great loss.

Puccini:Highlights From Turandot



Not a big opera fan, but I saw this at the Crack House and it is a mint condition London Blue Back, so I thought I would give is a shot.

As one would expect from a Blue Back it is nice sounding with a big wide soundstage. (But I am still not a big opera fan.)

Richard Strauss - Also Sprach Zarathustra Berliner Philharmoniker Dirigent: Karl Bohm, [vinyl]

Seeing your post of listening to Karajan's version reminded me I bought this version with Bohm conducting at DD for $1 and haven't listened to it yet, guess I'll have to correct that today.
