I enjoy vinyl and digital (lately, with recent changes, vinyl actually sounds better than digital to me), BUT given what seems an overall preference for analog/vinyl on A'gon, I'm curious what the non-vinyl "1/2" is listening to. I tried to see if this was a previously posted question. Did not seem so.
This evening for me, it's Genesis (definitive edition remaster) "A Trick of the Tail".
Hey @mental Thanks for posting about RT’s "What Lies Beneath". New one for me and I’m really liking it...even his vocal. Listening to a FLAC version on Tidal but surprised that there’s a very noticeable break between tracks that are obviously supposed to seamlessly fade into one another...no "gapless playback". In a few spots the recording has more distortion than I’m used to hearing from Tidal.
Curious if you are noticing any of this on whatever version you have.
This is probably a "buy" for me. Thanks for the tip.
@reubent Okay...thanks for the tip. Seemed to work just now (your tip/fix, that is). By the way, you had posted in another thread about Relish which led me to re-listen to it and mention it here. That in turn led to mental getting a copy of it. Sharing music is one of the best things - it not theee best - about A’gon.
mitchagain - Nope...not familiar with Paco or the CD TIWWL but I will try to find it on Tidal or Spotify...worst case, You Tube. Thanks for the recommendation. Glad you enjoy Ivy.
Okay...found it. Playing on Tidal. Interesting that there are two albums listed but one is AAC and the other FLAC. Saved the FLAC version and that is what I'm listening to now.
Thanks for the tip on PSP "Live," I look forward to hearing that.
I saw Simon Phillips playing on Jeff Beck's "There and Back" tour in 1980. I'll never forget the crowd's reaction when they opened the curtain to reveal probably the biggest drum kit any of us had ever seen. The "oohs and aahs" that rippled thru the theater was both hilarious and prophetic, as we instantly knew that we were in for a real treat!
@mental - "Red Headed Stranger" is a classic and one of WIllie's best IMHO. Have you heard the "Red Headed Stranger Medley" on "Willie and Family Live"? It's fantastic, as is the whole album.
@mental If you don’t have it, definitely worth adding to your collection. It's older but good. Song writing is consistently strong. Many (all?) of the songs written by or with members of The Hooters, if you remember them (All You Zombies). Sound quality is very good throughout, too.
I think Reubent mentioned it recently on another thread.
