I was at work from dusk 'till dawn. So I listened to an mp3 disc with various Motley Crue, AC/DC, Buckcherry, Poison, Metallica,and Godsmack on it. Turns out the disc is just a little over 3 hours long so I heard it twice.
If I had know it was going to be such a long trip I would have brought a longer disc.

Swan Lake
Pytor Il'yich Tchaikovsky

Label: Speakers Corner (Decca)
Genre: Classical



LP 180 Gram ADEC 2107


" Ernest Ansermet conducts the L'Orchestre De La Suisse Romande performing Pytor Il'yich Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.
Here is a true delight for all ballet fans and music lovers. This recording of what is probably Tchaikovsky's most popular ballet, Swan Lake, by Ernest Ansermet and his orchestra in a masterly performance is now available as a new pressing on vinyl. The Russian composer's first ballet is offered here on a double LP and although not a complete recording, this compilation (with a minimum of cuts) certainly comprises the most beautiful and expressive scenes, losing nothing in the process.

Ballet specialist Ansermet and his wonderfully balanced Orchestre de la Suisse Romande offer here a recording which you'll want to hear again and again, for it captures both the tragic moments of the fairy tale and the festive dance scenes. The precise winds in, for example No. 4, provide a marked contrast to the lively and exciting tutti No. 5, while the gentle woodwinds blend charmingly with the dreamlike cantilena of the strings No. 11. The various characteristics of the festive national dances (Polkas, Mazurkas, Hungarian Dance etc.) are performed with temperament, verve and rhythm, but it is the waltzes with their sweet dreaminess which invite the listener most of all to put on their dancing shoes and join in the dance. "

Delicious.....

I've had a couple of box-sets save me on these: the Allman Brothers box set (surprisingly good for an all-nighter -- ended up listening to the entire thing twice, ended up buying it (had checked it out of the library)), and Keith Jarrett's Sun Bear box (just simply astounding -- I just wish I had a carousel player at work).

I listened to Holst's Planet Cycle the whole way through last night. It was great...especially the Mad Max 2 section (Mars).
