Steve Edwards Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Its release in October of 1982 was quite a departure from her previous work, setting some of her dedicated fans asking "what?" I'm a big fan of her, and I might go so far as to label this my favorite record. This is the ORG, double 45rpm version. I think it's out of print; maybe still available on some of the sites. For me, in the spirit of Fremer ............ MUSIC: 11 - SOUND: 11. It's just a terrifically transparent, dynamic recoding. And what a line up of musicians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWP Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I Love Joni, and all her music. Miles of Aisles is a wonderful live recording. Sooooo many great ones though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Edwards Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 There are so many. For a late night, lights-down-low meditative departure, I like Paprika Plains from her Don Juan's Reckless Daughter record ............ very dreamy yet engaging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Edwards Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 ct, did you get your DAC back with the modified volume control? My PSE mono amps have been in the shop for almost three weeks now; failed capacitors. It's really tough seeing my Quatros sit in silence for so long 😩 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctsooner Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Not yet. I'm hoping this week. They didn't realize they needed a motorized QUAD volume control as I run fully balanced. He thought he could do single ended and I said no. We hope it comes in sometime this week. Teh rest of the unit is ready to go. They just got a special tube for the DAC portion late last week and he's been burning it in for me since so only the volume control will need burning in, which shouldn't be that bad. Really missing my music though. It's great that they keep making major upgrades, including hardware, but I hate being without the unit for weeks. Teh next hardware upgrade will be in a few months. They are making it a two box unit that will be milled out of solid blocks. I can't wait to hear that upgrade as they are huge on cleaning up the power when it comes into the unit etc... They have many separate LPS's in to run the different parts of the unit as it's a three in one. Teh best part is that th DAC and server are hard wired and on top of each other with uber short runs of wire. Same with the volume. We also did Supercap upgrades and naked Vishay resistors which make a huge difference as you all know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkeske Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I'm 'late' to the Joni party. Grew up then, heard and listened to some of here works, but was always more interested in other music. I have now purchased almost all of here work through the 70's ('Don Juan's Reckless Daughter' being a real favorite). I just got her new release in the mail yesterday; 'Live and Canterbury House -1967', and it is fantastic. Highly recommended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctsooner Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I haven’t listen to her in a few years. Your son every now and then streaming but haven’t sat down to listen to a full album. Thanks for sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Edwards Posted March 26, 2021 Author Share Posted March 26, 2021 Ah bkeske, grown fond of her “jazzy” stage have ya? Paprika Plains is one of her compositions that I can get really lost in. play on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GdnrBob Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I still remember the controversy when Joni decided to sing/play the music SHE wanted. A very talented individual. B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkeske Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Finally snagged a very clean copy of Blue from a friend. These releases are crazy high prices vs her other LP’s. Now my Joni collection from the 60’s thru the 70’s is complete. Listening to this ‘as we speak’. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
