Ella Fitzgerald ‎– Mack The Knife - Ella In Berlin (His Master's Voice, 1960 First UK Mono Pressing)

A recent cheap find. This is a live recording which includes the famous moment when she forgets the words to Mack The Knife and scats her way through it. She won 2 Grammy Awards for this as well.

The agutierrezb 2019 record collection challenge

So I've decided to embark on my own personal challenge, which consists of listening every record in my collection before the end of the year. My record collection is not that big -only ~250-, but I still feel like there are a bunch of records I don't give enough attention to, while still adding more titles to my shelves.

For this reason I've set a couple of rules in order to play every record at least once before December 31st: I'll play at least one record a day, going from front to back in the way I have them sorted in my shelf. I can play a different record (i.e. Not the next one in alphabetical order) if I feel like listening to something else in any given moment, but at least one of the records I spin in the day has to be the LP in turn.

I didn't take pictures for the first two days, but I'll try to document the process from here on, so I'll be posting daily on this thread. Wish me luck!
#299: Shina Williams and his African Percussionists - African Dances

#300: Amy Winehouse - Back to Black

Just listened to this for the first time today. How does this sound? Did they split it well?

Yeah, it works pretty well on vinyl. Splits seem pretty natural (across 3 sides). Mastering and pressing are both good - Definitely above average for a new release
 
Got my #RSD releases from @Matt M today...this and the Planet Wax book. Thanks again @Matt M - the whole process was much easier than I thought it would be.
