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. |

@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? |

@uberwaltz,
I had read that the German lp of "Yoshimi....." is THE copy to have. I ran across a M copy last year and scooped it up. It does sound wonderful! |
