One of the all time classic live records.
For those into live records, I also reccomend Framptom comes Alive, Kiss Alive, Neil Diamond's Love at the Greek, Chicago (box set - live at Carnegie Hall), Woodstock - Music from the original Soundtrack and More, Simon & Garfunkel - The Concert in Central Park, Pink Floyd's P.U.L.S.E., Deep Purple's Made in Japan, Metallica's S&M, Led Zeppelin's Song Remains the Same and Dokken's Beast from the East. All great live performances (I found the quality of the woodstock recordings to be pretty ordinary when compared to the others). There are more but these are the ones that I regularly listen to from my collection.
 
Cannonball Adderley - Somethin' Else

Today was Abba's day. Their icon Greatest Hits Lp still sounds great after all these years! The later versions had ' Fernando' , a chartbuster in its time! Also listened to 'Arrival', another fine album. Used a Philips EG1400 cartridge with an aftermarket new .7 mil styli, mounted on a GA242. I find these old carts quite suitable for less than pristine records.

@acemachine26 that is a very nice and attractive looking LP storage. Is it custom done or you picked it up ready made?

Disraeli Cream. Classic. I own a much heard Gramaphone Co of India copy. Incidentally if you read the line Disraeli Gears on the LP, story goes that someone could not pronounce the word 'derailleur ' gears,as fitted on bicycles, as a sort of humour! Must read about this on internet, for those further interested.
 
Should have been Disraeli Gears : Cream, not Disraeli Cream ! Further to the above post, the story goes that Ginger Baker , their drummer, was accompanying Eric Clapton, to buy a bike with derailleur gears, when one of their roadies, driving their car said, " Oh yeah, Disraeli Gears." The Cream members are found this very humourous, and thus came about the title.
