Listening to "Sweet Jane" on the Trinity Sessions Revisited, made me want to pull out Mott the Hoople "All the Young Dudes"....the Absolute Analogue numbered edition from over a decade ago. Up next. |
@uberwaltz,. It’s nice regarding how much more music one is willing to discover when one has the music (vinyl & the proper way to clean it) and a great system on which to enjoy. |
Up in a bit is the Ramones ""Live @ The Palladium" (New York, New York,12-31-79) that our friend @tomic601 so graciously offered up recently to anyone who wanted it. BTW, I received it as a sealed 2019 RSD numbered copy.
Thanks so much Jim! |
As much as we prize our records....in the end it's just a record. Relationships are so much more important! |
Well Jim, I listened to side one of the Ramones lp. While it's not audiophile quality, it is really about the performance and it's historical significance, well, for me anyway. Supposedly, this recording was sourced from a cassette tape on the mixing boards.
The quality of the vinyl and the pressing is top notch. There you go. Thanks again! |
Listening to JP had me wondering how much it sounded like BDylan. Who came first? More importantly..did one or the other have a significant impact? |
John Prine "S/T" 1971/SD 8296/period pressing/a gift! Actually, the original owner lives in my neighborhood, why more can one ask? |
Hello @boxer12,
......gettin’ your system warmed up?
Had any hic-cups with the new arm?
|
@boxer12,
I'd love to be there, experiencing it. |
LUNA "Lunafied" RunOutGroove
Wow! The now OOP lp from our vinyl friends @ ROG.
SQ + EX+ |
cleaning..... Bob Dylan "Modern Times"
Found a sealed copy and jumped on it. My first time hearing it. |
Silver Jews "Bright Flight":
|
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band "Will the Circle be Unbroken" Vol 2/OP |
Primal Scream "Give Out But Don’t Give Up" 2018/Sony-EU/45rpm/dbl lp |
Is that one a recent re-issue?
I’m currently bidding for a sealed John Prine "Oh Boy".... Will be paying out the a__ for it but I’m treating myself. |
Decided to compare the two Teskey Brothers lps, back to back today, so, here goes.....gonna put on "Run Home Slow" first. |
Just finished "Run Home Slow"
I’m using the same volume level on both lps...@10 o’clock, enough gain to be dynamic yet not so much as to be intrusive.
(BTW: this is the first time I’ve listened with two MyMats. Some may be saying that I’m just self-promoting, well I guess technically it’s true but the fact is, I’d be just as "high" on this product if it wasn’t my baby.)
With a critical ear, there seems to be some slight muddiness, without interfering with overall enjoyment, and yes, I found myself more involved that on past listens.
Up next "Half Mile Harvest"....just cued it up, immediately there was the highly noticeable leading edge of musical instruments struck with a greater transient response.....
Just noticed that "HMH" needs flattening as well. |
last lp until Friday...The Commitments (soundtrack) MOV
"may we all find a better frame of mind within the music we hear" |
The Teskey's lead singer sounds familiar, similar to the Commiment's singer. Both are great talents! |
The end result is fairly easy for me.... "HMH" is the superior recording in terms of SQ. I really enjoy both. Regarding content, I think there's a strong argument for the willingness of the band to try different things on "HMH" as well that make it their gold standard.
Peace! |
FWIW, My Funk Firm FXR, a highly modified Rega, is a solid arm.
If you have time, look up the Stereophile review of my exact set-up. Rock 7/Funk Firm FXR. The reviewer says, " sounds like no tonearm at all." |
Hey uber,
Both have many hours but one has a missing stylus the other has a missing cantilever. Nobody will be able to rebuild as new. Dynavector doesn't even do it. |
@elliotnewcombjr,
I checked out a few of the songs on the Fontella Bass lp. Very cool! Thanks for sharing. |
Jeremy Messersmith "Late Stage Capitalism"
2018/Glassnote

Jeremy Messersmith "Heart Murmurs"
2013/Glassnote

@spiritofradio,
That's good to hear about Caroline. From listening to her music, I would have expected that. |
Charly Bliss "Supermoon" EP/45rpm/Barsuk |
FYI...Gary Moore "Live From London" from 2009, is out now on vinyl from Mascot Label Group! |
As promised...lp 2 from John Prine "Live" is now flat! |
It's been a while since I heard "90125", I remembered it being bright. Not in my current system configuration. Very enjoyable. |
|
Tony Joe White "Bad Mouthin"" 45rpm |
I'm really liking "Modern Times".....for me, with Dylan, it's so hard to pin him down regarding his ever-changing vocal styles. To me, this is especially evident on this record. |
...but it sounds so gooood......!
............................
Jim Lauderdale "Time Flies" what a great record!
...............................
BTW, I have a sealed copy of Jim Lauderdale "From Another World" for the taking. If anyone would love to call it home?
|
|
Ran across a sealed Neil Young "Hawks & Doves" (promo), so I scooped it up. Up next.
I guess a promo is as close as one can get to an OP? |
sides 1 & 2 of "Modern Times" again....had to get an annoying slight warp out. |
boxer,
On a couple of tunes on this lp, he changes his styling within one or two lines!
................................................
Yes "90125" |
Grant Lee Buffalo "Mighty Joe Moon" |
@6t5-gto,
My brother, you are a hard one to pin down...
.................................
Montrose "S/T" Friday Music./ Wow, they did a great job here! |
Hopefully the analog police will be understanding? |
Lucinda Williams "World Without Tears" Lost Highway/ gold stamped promo/sounds fantastic!
Shhhhh! |
Marty Stuart "Way Out West" |
Damien Rice "Live, @ Fingerprints, Warts and All" |
Linda Ronstadt "Simple Dreams" MFSL |
Lucinda Williams "Blessed"

I never "received" the message of the (title) song until today. |
