      RN listening to way to much Taylor Swift. Daughter #3 almost always commandeering the car stereo on our trips.

      I did help her purchase a nice entry level turntable and speakers though, which was kind of fun. And bought her Rumors and Revolver as Christmas presents for her growing collection of vinyl.

          @george-k I love the Sibelius symphonies. My favorite set is the one of all the symphonies played by the Boston Symphony conducted by Colin Davis. At the time of these recordings my cousin was playing in the viola section. He told me the orchestra members all liked and respected Colin Davis.

          On your recommendation, I listened to #1, #2 and #5 today.

          I found #1 just a bit too "contrast-ey" for my taste. Davis's pauses seemed to interrupt the flow of the music.

          I'll continue this week.

            My oldest is a huge Taylor Swift fan. Some would say a little to much but she is just like that when she is into something. Think me, only exponentially worse. lol

            Nobody, and I mean nobody commandeers the stereo, except for me, when I am in the car. And I have 3 daughters. lol

              @george-k I’m comparing Bernstein’s Sibelius cycle with the NY Phil and later with the Vienna Phil. Quite a difference in the tone quality between these orchestras. I’ll post my impressions later.

                Mrs. George went shopping.

                I'm alone in the house, and I've got Gardiner's recording of the Beethoven #7 playing.

                Really loud.

                      Listen to the use of the pedal in the repeats. Also, how heavy-handed...

                      Another one that's just too much.

                        I've always enjoyed Chris Isaak's music. I was unaware that, about 9 years ago, he released an album called "Beyond the Sun" in which he covers some of the classic songs from the Sun Studios - "Pretty Woman," "I Walk The Line," and a host of others.

                        I've not been able to find them on Spotify or Apple Music, but if you look around on Youtube, they're there.

                        There's a playlist to the right - give it a shot, you geezers.
