Agree with Barry, 'At The Sands' is the best one, with the other two as runner-ups.Quote:

I have heard this before and listening to it again now . . . not sure why I don't have it :scratch:
But I will have soon.
EDIT:
I remember why it's not in my collection now . . . for me it's a one time listen or a very occasional one because of all the talking. Really captures the flavour of an evening with him, but not something I'd put on to relax to when I fancy some Sinatra. Top 3 though, but In the Wee Small Hours is still my favourite.
Agree with you about the chat. That is why I play my CD copy rather than the LP, so I can skip the talking bits with the remote.Quote:

Excellent choice Tim. I have over 35 of his recordings, and have heard him play on a few occasions, so it is sometimes difficult to choose what to play. :)
Ooo, you've beaten me there Barry, I only have 17 - I saw the film Köln 75 this afternoon, outstanding cinema and very, very different to a standard Hollywood music biopic. 5 stars from me.
Some EMT turntable porn in the film too . . . or certainly looked like EMT to my untrained eye.

There are no EMT turntables shown in the trailer, but the camera is a Leica M3, which is my favourite camera; having used mine on my travels all over the world.
Will have to see the film sometime. Thanks for the 'heads up'. :)
Is that not an EMT on the left?

Yes, both of them are EMT 930 decks. Not quite sure of the reel-to-reel machine but it looks like a Studer C37.
