Listening to a compilation of Mose Allison a friend burned for me a couple of years ago.

LOL - I remember my Dad telling me he saw that album when it first came out and he thought what a strange title for an album - he thought it was stating where The Who "lived", as opposed to them playing "live" there. :lol:

Wow, that memory was from way back!!

Jorge Bolet playing his 1953 Remington recording of Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No 2 in G Minor. This has just been transferred by Appian Publications & Recordings and appears for the first time ever on CD ("Jorge Bolet: His Earliest Recordings", APR 6009). I paid a small fortune to buy a scratchy old record of the Prokofiev from the US a couple of years ago, so, as ever, my timing is impeccable.

The set also includes Bolet's other 1953 Remington recording (Chopin's 4 Scherzi) and his two 1952 LPs for Boston ("Airs of Spain" and "Recital Favourites"). Saint-Saens, Moszkowski, Mendelssohn, Liszt, Beethoven, Lecuona, Granados, Falla, Albeniz, Prokofiev and Chopin, rendered beyond brilliantly by a man some (well, me, anyway) say was the greatest pianist ever recorded.

If you want to hear what actual genius sounds like when it's directed at a grand piano, you should listen to this.
