Hello chaps!!
Well, the old blog's been a bit quiet - I guess I ran out of steam to keep the vinyl rips happenning. However there are some exciting developments in store for 2008 - more about that later. M. Snookles is now the proud owner of a Rega P3, the turntable of my dreams - so I think a few more vinyl rips might be coming your way soon as I put the new TT through its paces.
In the meantime, here's a spot of virtuoso Balalaika twanging, courtesy of the Osipov State Russian Folk Orchestra...
01 - Fantasy On Two Folk Songs
02 - At Sunrise
03 - The Linden Tree
04 - Kamarinskaya
05 - Fantasy On Volga Melodies
06 - In The Moonlight
07 - Midnight In Moscow
08 - Under The Apple Tree
09 - Dance Of The Comedians
10 - The Living Room

Hi Mr Snookles,
Glad to see your back.

Hi VR;
Yes, I had so many comments from well-wishers I finally got up off my furry composite behind and started ripping some more vinyl.
More good stuff in 2008...
Mr Snookles
Missed you. Welcome back and congrats on the new TT. Mine is acting up and have had to revert to ripping cd's and digging into the archives in the meantime. Nice to see you are not gone for good as some have done as of late. LP
Was the selling point on this album that it was 1) recorded in Russia; 2) recorded by Americans, or; 3) released for the first time?
I'm confused over which of these to be MOST excited over!
Welcome back Mr. S - sometimes a break is just what the doctor ordered.
Looking forward to your 2008 offerings w/ great anticipation.

excellent mr snookles good to see you posting again and what a great start.. nice deck i have a rega planer 2 myself had it for years.. super decks, when this one finally throws off the mortal coil i'm going for another rega for sure :)
Thsi record is a classic. I still have my LP from the original pressing and do indeed play it. The jacket states in a banner across the top that it was recorded on 35mm movie film! State of the art back then...
thanks for all the swell stuff that would be dead, gone, kaput without your sterling efforts.
Mr. Snookles
beautiful album "balalaika"
