First time I've spun a silver disc in a while, Eagles - The Long Run. Sounding really nice! |
Tonight. Dire Straits "Love Over Gold" I was transported listening to this, what a guitarist Mark Knopfler is, I'm only really now appreciating it fully with todays discrete R2R dac. My very first cd purchase, bought in 1883, 38 years ago!!!! sounds as good today as the very best recordings I have, great DR (dynamic range). http://dr.loudness-war.info/album/view/118968Cheers George

Big TTF fan here. "Seeds" is a wonderful follow up to "Songs- a true 80's Pop Masterpiece." Both are excellent system Test discs.
Happy Listening! |

Last night I listened to
Tears For Fears - "Everybody Loves a Happy Ending"
My son 1st turned me on to it. I was never a big fan of the group (duo) but this is very good for a last album from a duo who had been on a 10+ year hiatus. I guess for their devoted fans, the album lives up to its title.
On Vinyl, listened to :
An often overlooked talent.

Dead can dance, live in Chicago, 2005. Was at the show, also have the pressing on LP. Company called The Show did these productions and boy are they good. |
The sole album (s/t, CD only) by super-group The Notorious Cherry Bombs. Headed by Rodney Crowell and Vince Gill, with assistance from some of the best studio musicians in Nashville (including producer Tony Brown, Hank DeVito, Richard Bennett, and Eddie Bayers). |
The Bee Gees, 20th Anniversary Compilation-2 CD set A departure from my usual genre but these are great songs from a group that had been around from the late 1950’s. Give em' a listen. I think you'll like them. " Still Waters" and "This is where I came in" https://youtu.be/hXgpOIxDGTghttps://youtu.be/5a95WRSWvHAN |
Jewel - Pieces of You (now 25 years old) |
|
Iron Maiden - Killers (now 40 years old). |
Santana, Shaman - CD Great supporting cast in this one. Michelle Branch Seal Macy Gray Dido Many more...
Highly recommended track 7, "Victory is Won" - instrumental

Absolutely! Phil took great pride crafting his and Genesis releases. Good to read that you own a CDV 2185 copy as well.
Happy Listening! |

Free Life by Dan Wilson. Dan is a singer/songwriter, but not in the 1970's sense. He has had a number of his songs recorded by others (including The Dixie Chicks, from whom I learned of him), often becoming hit records. I understand he is also a member of Semisonic---whom I now have to check out, and earlier was in Trip Shakespeare. The album starts of meekly---a mid-tempo song sung by Dan, not a great singer. But by the end of the song, it has grown (via excellent production) into a majestic powerhouse! Great chord progressions---with an actual bridge, an endangered song element---vocal harmonies, guitar power chords, etc. Not a bad song on the album, all B's or better. I found a Mint- copy on Amazon for $2.79 plus 3.99 shipping. Sorry @slaw and @tomic601, the album has never been available on LP. ;-)
