There's a glowing new object in the hi-fi galaxy – the Quasar turntable. Ken Kessler makes space for a deck with a sound as sweet as sugar

Gorgeous. That's the word I kept hearing, every time someone noticed the Quasar LE turntable while it was in for review. And one of the first to utter it was the owner of a Michell Orbe, itself no canine. What these individuals cooed over is one of the prettiest LP spinners to come along since the first Oracle. And that's one hell of an antecedent.

This month, we review: Michael Nesmith, Allman Brothers Band, Help Yourself and Gerry Rafferty.

This month we review: Jeff Beck, Nina Simone, Sonny Stitt & The Top Brass and Link Wray.
