Primus and the Chocolate Factory with the Fungi Ensemble.
A great and very original take on the music from the film with Gene Wilder!

Recently put a mono cart (AT-Mono3/LP) on one of the armtubes of my SME III and playing thru a Rek-O-Kut "re-equaliizer." Here's a few:
* Art Pepper Quintet on Discovery (including his so-called "Spice Suite")
* Ralph Burns "Free Forms"
* Red Norvo Trio (Jimmy Raney, Red Mitechell) on Fantasy
* Terry Pollard (unsung Detroit pianist/vibist) on Bethlehem
* Just Jazz All Stars featuring Louis Bellson (and many from Ellington orch)
* Don Byrd & Gigi Gryce on Philips Jazz Olympus Series
Plus others from early 50s by Bird, Monk, Mulligan, etc, etc.
And a real oddity, "Jazz Themes from {Marlon Brando's} The Wild One". Music by Leith Stevens featuring "Roger Short" (Shorty Rogers), "Manny Shell" (Shelly Manne), Bud Shank, Bob Cooper, Jimmy Giuffre, Russ Freeman, Milt Bernhart, et al.
Amazing how these antiques sound, even today ... to an antique audiophile :-)
The heroine asks Brando, "What are you rebelling against?"
Brando says, "Whaddaya got?"
Love it every time.
and what's the point of being young if you can't misspend some of that youth?

O.K., you got me on The Wild One, one of my all time favs from my teen age years. Great stuff.
Wish I had that Free Forms album. I think my dad had that one.
Thanks.

ESPECIALLY "Don Juan's Reckless Daughter". That is my all-time fave!

I was supposed to be home by Sunday, and I was so looking forward to spinning some Traffic "Low Spark" and such (attitude properly adjusted, possibly), but due to travel complications I'm stuck in a rather crappy hotel just outside of the Beijing airport, and I get to have truly awful music on a truly awful sound system imposed upon me through my hotel room walls. (Sigh!)
I think I might miss work on Monday, and spin away then!

Frank Zappa "The Lost Episodes".
OK, it not on vinyl, but its sill great.
..."The Old Kit Bag" - one of his best later albums. It took me a while to get into it, but it is definitely up there.
Sweet Warrior is also a worthy later addition to his impressive catalog.

Always a blast for me
This started my Saturday spins and the others followed.
Bonnie Raitt, S/T
Joni Mitchell, Court and Spark
The Allman Brothers Band, Eat a Peach
...
Mercury Living Presence (reissue) recording. Dynamic and exciting! I love the first 2 movements, but boy does he rush through the third movement. I'm out of breath just listening to it. Can't imagine how it would be playing it!
Still feel Bruno Walter's version of the 2nd movement (soooo sloooow) is one of my favorite renditions. But this is an exciting recording. Recommended!
