I'm glad you got your hands on Melos. One of my longest standing relationships in the world of RPI |
As I mentioned awhile back, I'm a big fan of Corrado Rustici's guitar work. Melos is way up on my list of recent purchases.

Fine list, Guldy. Heard half of these and like most of this half but that Alusa Fallax have un petit je-ne-sais-quoi...very special one. |
I know exactly what you mean. I think that's what I meant by that 'sound' too. Every instrument sounds so warm and welcoming....and then there's that mellotron. Oh boy.

Max o phone? You surprise me my furry friend. I wouldn't have guessed that. It is a popular record around here though, I know of a couple of members who swear by it. Sagi for instance.

I recently discovered Apoteosi's self-titled effort. A wonderful album.

I've only heard about half of these but I've been a long time fan of Maxophone. Cervello and Buon Vecchio Charlie are more recent favorites but when it came time to vote I had to go with Festa Mobile. The full album is great but what stands out for me is the excellent piano and guitar.

I picked Buon Vecchio Charlie-a great classically inspired album with some especially great keys work; the drummer went to join Libra! |
Love this album with all of it's raw unadulterated youth storming through it.....even if it does sound like it was recorded inside a small broom closet

You know what though, I had the exact same preservations going into the turntable world. Then I bought a hundred used LPs in one go, and I haven't looked back since. I love the 'reverence' of the media, and there is just something sexy about being able to see the music being sucked out of this vinyl groove by a needle. Way more intimate than the laserbeam they hide behind plastic and wood imo. Then again, I still collect cds...

No, I already eat, sleep and make love on a pillow of Cd's. I still hesitate to buy to myself a mattress of vinyles.
