Smashing Pumpkins' "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" on a BC3300 in the dining room system.

Bought the BC3300 a couple weeks ago for a tenner on Ebay (advertised as non-working).  Took a chance on a belt kit from Martin.  Got it running this morning. 

I bought this fourth (!!!!) cassette deck so I could swap out my BC2400 in the dining room system and put her in the guest bedroom with my BM2400, BG3404, and BV S40s.

My initial impression of this deck is that it is the least of the four (BC4500, BC2400, BC1900, BC3300) I own.  However, I do dig the search function it has.

listening to cd's by the recently deceased Jackie Leven.

A real musician, and a real artist, sadly overlooked commercially.

I saw him live about 10 times, and also used his recordings a lot to sell B&O speakers when I did that for a living - very fine sounding recordings.

RIP

I'm currently test recording an old BASF chromdioxid 120 from the late 1970's.

The Beocord 6000/8000 were set to European tapes for ultimate recordings and though I was not really looking due to my Beocord 6000's limited recording options with no HXpro, calibration or dolby C to enhance a recording I located by chance some 40 odd tapes Phillips, BASF from mostly the '70s which were still well kept with what seems like recorded just once.

The original double LP Prince The love symbol album is going on tape. It's varied and FUNKY!

2. "Sexy MF" (Prince, Levi Seacer, Jr., Tony Mosley) – 5:25
3. "Love 2 the 9s" – 5:45
4. "The Morning Papers" – 3:57
5. "The Max" – 4:30
6. "Segue" (spoken word with Prince and Kirstie Alley) – 0:21
7. "Blue Light" – 4:38
8. "I Wanna Melt with U" – 3:50
9. "Sweet Baby" – 4:01
10. "The Continental" – 5:31
11. "Damn U" – 4:25
12. "Arrogance" – 1:35
13. "The Flow" (Prince, Tony Mosley) – 2:26
14. "7" (Prince, Lowell Fulsom, Jimmy McCracklin) – 5:13
15. "And God Created Woman" – 3:18
16. "3 Chains o' Gold" – 6:03
17. "Segue" (spoken word with Prince and Kirstie Alley) – 1:30
18. "The Sacrifice of Victor" – 5:41

the picture says it all 

too much Corinne yesterday :-) so I have switched to Melody 

until I went searching for a picture of her I did not know her sad backstory :-(

we are blessed to have gained this singer and voice ... but the path she had to take to get here was a hard one

some extremes - two new (for me) artists

Lana Del Ray (already discussed elsewhere on Beoworld) and Stacey Kent

I would listen to music in the garage except for the fact that it is 48 deg in there!

Yeah, I was barefoot wearing shorts.

On the other hand, it's too hot in the summer to hang out in the garage.
