Just one Example:

Very nice work - a little samey. But great playing and overall sound. With 5 studio albums, I will probably get around to them all.

Tell Mama

Tell Mama
by Etta James (1968)

https://album.link/i/1371791759

Example:

Just a few tracks that were not great for me. But the rest of the album kicks ass (like the example).

Was over so fast that I had to pull this.

At Last!

At Last!
by Etta James (1961)

https://album.link/i/1440838775

Example:

Everyone knows the title track... Much more the classical and strings versions, but man does it highlight her singing.

Eye In The Sky

Eye In The Sky
by The Alan Parsons Project (1982)

https://album.link/i/1205670750

Example:

I was going to post Mammagamma or Old and Wise. But the title track is just so good. Like most of Alan's albums, they are just so good to listen to. 

And for something different.

Spaces

Spaces
by Yosi Horikawa (2019)

https://album.link/i/1463826014

Example:

If you like a lot of looping of natural sounds. Tosi is the ticket. I am not sure how it got into my queue, but it really gave me an Art of Noise vibe - and that is a very good thing.

I listened to, At Last, today. Your fault, Steve.

Carl "Blue Suede Shoes" Perkins is in the studio to record "Matchbox," his other great hit. Arriving early to the studio to watch him record is the man in black, Johnny Cash. Also around is "the killer," Jerry Lee Lewis, Sun records' new piano player who hasn't had any of his hits released yet. Driving past, 21 year old Elvis sees the armada of Cadillacs parked at Sun records and stops in to see what is going on.

A lot of this is just noodling around and the recording isn't great, but this one of the most impressive collaborations of early rock superstars that we have. The "Million Dollar Quartet," indeed. "Don't be Cruel" and "Brown Eyed Handsome Man" are real highlights.

Sad that by the time they started to get back together Elvis had already passed on.

Beethoven for Three: Symphony No. 4 and Op. 97 "Archduke"

Beethoven for Three: Symphony No. 4 and Op. 97 "Archduke"
by Yo-Yo Ma (2024)

https://album.link/i/1725363052

Example:

I didn't even know these existed until today - this was released last weekish, and two others were released in 2022. Only 4 symphony's so far. I hope that they can complete the flight.  I thought they might have recorded in the space pictured. - But no - in an equally cool building - the EMPAC (Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center).
