Beethoven: Violin Concerto in D Minor, Op. 61 - Tsintsadze: Miniatures by Lisa Batiashvili (2008) https://album.link/i/380160164 Example: So my friend in LA went and saw Lisa perform the Violin Concerto the other night and he thought it was wonderful. I took a look and saw that she recorded it back in 2008, one of her first recordings. While that was 17 years ago, it was still very good. I am sure hearing her live today would be even better.

Crime Of The Century [2014 - HD Remaster] by Supertramp (1974) https://album.link/i/1440646658 Example: I always think of Supertramp from 79 into the 80s, not 1974. Even this does not feel like 74 to me. Just a high quality album from the tramp.

^^ I happen to like them both, but DOMi is definitely really good. Red (Expanded & Remastered Original Album Mix) by King Crimson (1974) https://album.link/i/918614446 Example: More Jazz than I remember, but it has been a while since I put this on. Very good, and doing things different as always. Like this 12.5 minute track.

hmmm ^ that link is this v link for me. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/28/movies/jerry-lewis-day-the-clown-cried.html

Fire by Ohio Players (1974) https://album.link/i/1434907387 Example: The title track is the star of the show, but once I found 'What the Hell' (track 7), I was entranced. Not just by the album cover. And yup it was a gatefold.

Kimono My House by Sparks (1974) https://album.link/i/1443750483 Example: More fun than I was expecting, and really good.

Happy birthday Illuminator - cheers

This. (boring stereo version) Murry is one of my favs for Mozart. This whole combo works really well for me for the 2nd Concerto. I am not sure I am a real fan of the first just as a work, nothing against this version. Thanks rob.

Streetlights by Bonnie Raitt (1974) https://album.link/i/287366514 Example: Strong Album. I only knew her in the 80's once I found Nick Of Time and the rest. I should have, and still should, explore her 70s work. One of the quintessential voices in my life. Ed: of Note - Drums – Stephen Gadd... :}

Still have some 50yo's kicking around in my queue: In Too Much Too Soon by New York Dolls (1974) https://album.link/i/1443895609 Example: Fun rock with early punk vibes.

Cheers HC Team - HNY

50yo Phases And Stages by Willie Nelson (1974) https://album.link/i/885243424 Example: I really like this album. Tender and pretty. He was happy to be on Atlantic records.

Yup - long time Rick subscriber.

50yo -- Oh yeah ^^ one is 50yo as well. Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan (1974) https://album.link/i/1696215205 Example: More diverse than other albums, which I liked. But it is a good not great album for me. Of course a handful of killer tunes, but then a few that are a miss for me. It will be in rotation. Well until I listen to Aja again and this one may get lost in the queue.

Happy new year smoked pork belly x3 y'all..

Moontan by Golden Earring (1974) https://album.link/i/81668043 Example: Another band that I know by name and two songs. My bad, I would have had these on my playlists a long time ago. There is a lot for me here. Great jams, 9+minute songs. Classic guitar sound. Now that I know, I shan't forget.

^^ this. (I think I get it) -- 🤔

50yo pair Here Come The Warm Jets by Brian Eno (1974) https://album.link/i/723783174 Example: His first solo - and it is all over the place - in the best way. He tried most things, and most of them worked. And a good Album Title. A clear contrast to: Country Life by Roxy Music (1974) https://album.link/i/724178403 Example: YouTube wont let me post the original song for some age restriction reason or something. There is no bad lyrics in here.. yeesh Oh well. Overall a fun album.

^^ As much middle East as I expected. More Trump than I wanted.

50yo album time Autobahn by Kraftwerk (1974) https://album.link/i/726154713 (and yeah I don't know why they don't list QOBUZ as well) Example (THE track): This album is a lot more playful that I remember. I was very used to the later works where they seem more serious.

^^ impressive (listened to first half - added to queue)

Happy Merry everyone - (NSFW - or family gatherings)

Happy 108th Ric -- Cheers -

Cheers Ken - Happy Birthday -
