@Rugby had to leave just shy of the hour so I’ll summarize the musical selections for this week.

At the top of the list, and in response to a discussion around the history of Fripp & Eno Live In Paris, @andybob reminded us of this little bit of history at the first showing of Stravinsky’s Rite Of Spring.
The Riot At Stravinsky’s 'Rite Of Spring' Premiere |.

Other things @andybob is listening to include:

  • The Last Dinner Party - Prelude to Ecstacy
  • Proof - Not Drowning Waving

@Ernesto_Del_Aguila is listening to:

  • Faye Webster - Undressed at the Symphony
  • Nora Jones - Visions

@Peter_Bruderer is listening to:

  • Sonata Arctica - Clear Cold Beyond
  • Hans Zimmer - Dune: Part Two
  • and his 19 CDs of Judas Priest including their newest album Invincible Shield (a double mention this week)

@Sloop_John_B is listening to:

  • Roon’s own curated playlist AM Gold

@David_Mader is listening to:

  • a bit of bosa nova… flor do milênio
    YouTube Music

  • and also reminded us here in the states, PBS has some excellent documentaries behind the making of the music.

@Rugby is listening to:

  • Ben Webster Quintet “Soulville”
  • Judas Priest Invincible Shield, with a big thumbs up positive review

@ipeverywhere (hey! that’s me) is listening to:

Other topics of discussion, apologize I am not giving credit here on who brought this up…

  • Tidal’s new pricing and a reminder that the Tidal app on Apple TV can let you live like it’s the 1980’s as it’s focused on music videos. Remember… video did kill the radio star until reality tv killed the video star?
  • pinkfishmedia.net for honest discussion on vintage gear
  • Fink Meets The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra (I didn’t catch who mentioned this one)
  • Australian Carnage – Nick Cave & Warren Ellis Live at Sydney Opera House
  • Dirty Three
    ** and of those two should Warren Ellis give up the mic and stay behind the violin?
  • Roon’s new playlist function
  • When should you throw that security hole ridden bit of hifi streaming manufacturer abandoned tech in the trash? yes, we’re talking about you the 0.01% :slight_smile:

and a whole lot more… see you next week! where we might discuss…
Who would you rather see Roon Labs partner with? Apple Music or Bandcamp

If I missed anything I’m sure someone will put it below.
