Good evening friends, and I am sorry for MY absence as well. Lots going on with work and all at this time of year (pipe organs demand our attention for church, Christmas performances everywhere....
.
Meanwhile, I wanted to certainly get a vinyl posting before or during the Christmas season. So, I dug out Vince G. and enjoying on the UTurn \ livingroom system. Here are some photos currently..

So let´s talk about " Riesling " 😂
Riesling is a white grape and wine variety, which is counted among the highest quality and culture-defining plants. The best Rieslings are produced in climatically cooler wine-growing regions. The variety is mainly grown in Germany, but also in numerous other wine-growing countries. Riesling wines enjoy a high reputation on international markets. Many top vineyards in Germany as well as in other wine-growing countries are planted with Riesling. Especially in northern growing countries like Germany, the variety is grown almost exclusively on steep slopes. Riesling has been cultivated in Germany for more than 600 years.
...and I have special glasses for Riesling! Hi everyone, just stopping by before heading into work for a couple days. I will try to get some vinyl listening in soon. Looks like all is under good control around here
🍷.

Today an addition to my vintage-system arrived:
A KT-7550. I couldn´t test it, power-switch is stuck in the off-position. Apart from that it´s very clean, both from the outside and inside. I´ll send it to a technician tomorrow. He´ll refurbish it and he will also modify it
to make it compatible with DAB+ standard.
Congrats on your 'new' Kenny gear ! 🍷

Good evening friends. As promised, just put Marillion - Clutching at Straws on the Rega here in the Hall, picking up where I left off last on the livingroom system.
But here now listening on the Parasound/Martin Logan gear. Here some photos.

Another sign of life from me , have brought part of my equipment to my good friend with whom I currently live. To his Mini Utopia and his Transrotor " FatBob " we have connected my external MI / MM / MC Trichord phono stage, my DYNACO PAS 4 tube preamplifier, my Cayin tube monos, my Marantz PM11-S3 SS , my Marantz SA11-S3 CDP and optionally my GoldNote M 9 Class D monos. We have also wired the entire system with my power- rca as well as speaker cables . The French Mini Utopia sound really great and have even for this size a fantastic bass foundation. We have what the music listening is really fun 😊 We´re playing with the gear and listen to music a lot .

This LP is a self released artist recording and truly beautiful
Artist - Chris Freeman and John Shaw
Title - Self titled
@GWSmith you will appreciate the simple sounding but complex artistry of this recording
Album ID - https://www.discogs.com/release/7404487-Chris-Freeman-10-John-Shaw-Chris-Freeman-John-Shaw
Good morning all ! Paul, thanks for the suggestion, however, I have no way to listen to a sample track. I have Spotify premium, and there are NO listings for either Chris or a John Shaw....

Well I have been busy with work
But my beautiful wife forgot to tell me I received a parcel but then she remembered at 8pm Saturday night
To late to clean and play it but plenty of time on Sunday 🤪🤪
Good morning/evening friends and CONGRATS Paul on picking adding that to you LP collection. I have that and 'Rattle that Lock'. I enjoy them both very much. Dreamy arrangements at times, and a tribute to the late Richard Wright. 🥲

Thanks Billy and friends... I hope to be here more often, now that there are two spaces with turntables and plenty of vinyl in the library to take out. I am going to head off for the evening. See you all tomorrow for more

This is really a very nice orchestral recording, and Paul as composer (with some help from the sidelines) came up with some beautiful themes here !
