Listenin' to Classical Music and Conversation

My former neighbor owns a late 50s Aston Martin DB3, about as far away from the DB5 as inaginable. It blew my mind when he told me what it was. It was a huge coupe, not sporty at all. He said he learned to drive using it and the steering was so louse you had to anticipate and start turning the steering wheel before you wanted to turn.

 

Looks like many participants of this thread own this box, myself included ...

 

@coopmv
But Mr. coop! **I** am the Callas rabid fan, not DeepFloyd!

Only 2 women on this thread--that I know of--and you get them confused?

 

Does it look anything like the one 007 drive? It has been too long since I just saw a Bond movie ...

 

Not at all

 

Mandatory car images posting, I see. I'll happily comply:



My 1970 Gremlin.

 

CD 4. Symphony #7, "Leningrad".

 

Post your ride, huh? Okay, my 2016 Kia Sorento, easily the nicest car I've ever owned.

 

10-year warranty is not bad or is it only for Hyundai?

 

Sorry! I am no car buff ...

 

I'm going to play this right now. I love this piece. Thanks for the reminder, ibanez.

 

My warranty:

5 yr/60,000 miles basic, 10 yr/100,000 miles powertrain.

 

It is very beautiful, but I personally prefer the new car....the one I posted DB9...

 

Right? There is a Callas fan (me) and a Callas Super Fan (you). Easy- peasy stuff to remember.

 

Now on the turntable, "William Byrd - The Three Masses" performed by The Tallis Scholars on Gimell.

(web pic is of the CD)

 

CD 1 from Spotify Premium. Quartets 1, 3 and 4.

 

That's one very, uh, dramatic album cover, blue. Good grief.

 

Si Inspector?
I'd call this a cool car. I'd kit it out with a Q8 tape player for classical music on the go.

 

On my late day walk/jog, I listened to CD1 from the following Bach twofer ...

 

Yeah, somewhat more dramatic than the following box, which I need to resume listening to ...

 

Yes, I noticed.

Disc 1 of this set is perfect October music (weather is finally changing here in NY). It's also (by no means a slight) great accompaniment to the silent German Expressionist films I've been indulging in lately.

 

Anyone is familiar with this box, I have heard Badura-Skoda was an excellent Austrian pianist but do not have any of his recordings ...
