The Beatles’ Get Back sessions have been written about to death, so we'll keep it brief. The Beatles gathered on January 2, 1969 at Twickenham Studios with the intention of rehearsing brand new songs for a concert that would be televised live throughout the world. They also agreed to have the entire process filmed for an accompanying documentary.

“Laurent Pelly's production of Donizetti's opéra comique was one of the highlights of the Royal Opera's 2006-7 season, and viewing this well-produced DVD of the show it's perfectly obvious why. Natalie Dessay's skinny tomboy of a Marie combines a 110 per cent commitment to the physicality of her acting with a coloratura facility that is beyond criticism.” BBC Music Magazine.

VA - Wobbly Sounds A Collection of British Flexi Discs (2019) Music

VA - Wobbly Sounds A Collection of British Flexi Discs (2019)
FLAC tracks / MP3 320 kbps | 1:19:35 | 180 Mb / 374 Mb
Genre: Rock, Pop / Label: Trunk Records

Cheap, disposable, often with poor audio quality but with great visuals, flexi discs were vinyl’s poorer cousin in the pre-digital age. Given away with magazines or sent out by advertisers, they were a splashy way of getting your message heard. Pressed onto laminated card or thin, wobbly plastic, these discs extolled the virtues of washing powders, beers, and banks. Specially commissioned tunes took as their unlikely subjects shoe shops, bakers, and even dentists. This book brings together over 150 images of the most remarkable British flexi discs from the 1950s to the early 1990s, chronicling the varied and sometimes bizarre uses of these flimsy records, and the result is a fascinating archive of post-war design and advertising ingenuity.

Ring of Bright Water: a Trilogy eBooks & eLearning

Posted by First1 at March 16, 2018

This volume weaves together the Scottish otter stories from Gavin Maxwell's three non-fiction books, Ring of Bright Water (1960), The Rocks Remain (1963), and Raven Meet Thy Brother (1969). Maxwell was both an extraordinarily evocative writer and a highly unusual man. While touring the Iraqi marshes, he was captivated by an otter and became a devoted advocate of and spokesman for the species. He moved to a remote house in the Scottish highlands, co-habiting there with three otters and living an idyllic and isolated life – at least for a while. Fate, fame, and fire conspired against this paradise, and it, too, came to an end, though the journey was filled with incident and wonder.

The Beatles - Sweet Apple Trax (Remastered) (2016)
FLAC (tracks) - 698 MB | MP3 CBR 320 kbps - 304 MB
2:11:20 | Pop Rock | Unofficial Release | Label: Misterclaudel

Speaking of Beatles collector's items, it would be the famous "Get Back" album, "Judo Arena", and this "Sweet Apple Tracks". I think people over 40 probably own at least one of these analog titles. This work is a reprint of that "SWEET APPLE TRAX" including the jacket.The content includes the sound source of the Get Back session in January 1969. As you know, this session has the impression that it is redundant and scattered, but the songs that can be enjoyed as songs have been compiled well over two discs. The Get Back Session is not only useful as a reference material, but even those who are not good at listening can extract and enjoy the essence of it, and it is an excellent content even when listened to with modern ears. In fact, I think there are many long-time fanatics who feel nostalgic about this song order and arrangement.

Andris Nelsons, Orchestra of the Royal Opera House - Puccini: La Bohème (2010) [Blu-ray] Music

Posted by Vilboa at June 2, 2022

John Copley’s enduring production of one of the most famously melodious and popular of all operas is a classic of the Royal Opera repertory. With historically accurate designs by Julia Trevelyan Oman and an excellent cast headed by Hibla Gerzmava and Teodor Ilincai, this 2009 revival, in which conductor Andris Nelsons makes a distinguished Royal Opera House debut, does full justice to Puccini’s masterpiece. Filmed in High Definition and recorded in true surround sound.
