Neil Young - "After the Gold Rush" - Neil Young Archives Official Release Series
|
@slaw - That other thread is for losers..... ;~)
|
@slaw - Sad to say, but I do not own a single Tom Petty record. I like TP a lot, just never got on the bandwagon. Where should I start if I don't want to spend $200 for the box set? Or should I just put the box set on my Christmas list? |
@slaw - OK, early Christmas present it is..... |
Went to the LRS today and pickup up the following:
Brandi Carlise - "by the way, I forgive you" (new) Father John Misty - "God's Favorite Customer" (brand new, released yesterday) Electric Light Orchestra - "Ole' ELO" (used) Cheap Trick - "At Budokan" (used promo) Shelby Lynne - "Revelation Road" (used) Willie Nelson - "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" (used) Elvis Costello - "Trust" (used) The Who - "It's Hard" (used)
Starting the night with the Brandi Carlise.

While cleaning records at lunchtime today, I pulled an LP out of the Way Back bin and took a spin. Here it is......
The Edgar Winter Group - "They Only Come Out at Night"
This is a hand-me-down from my sister who bought it new when it came out in 1972. It's been through many, many house parties, moves, musty basements and has been generally mis-handled and neglected. Regardless, after 30 rotations in the Spin-Clean, it sounds OK, with some pops, clicks and background noise. Still I enjoyed it immensely, if for nothing else, the shear nostalgia.......
I thought "Frankenstein" was da bomb back in the day. And I still enjoy it......
|
Cheap Trick - Live "At Budokan"
|
Shelby Lynne - "Revelation Road" |
|
Andy Pratt - S/T
From the latest Plaid Room pile
The opener - "Avenging Annie" has been a long-time favorite. Love it. Certainly on my top 100 playlist....
|
Late lunch listening.........
Electric Light Orchestra - "Ole' ELO"
|
Brandi Carlile - "by the way. I forgive you"
|
@slaw - I really like it. It's her first LP that I've bought. I have always been vaguely familiar with her work, especially the more popular stuff. I was surprised at the diversity of styles of songs on the record. If you squint your ears just a bit, the first song sounds quite a bit like an EmmyLou Harris song IMHO.
Enjoy..... |
@slaw @uberwaltz - I had the US version of "Going for the One". I bought it back when it was released and I always liked the music. However, I never thought the SQ was that good. Kind of a jumbled mess for sound. Was reading a review and someone said the Japanese pressing was the best, so I plopped down $50 for a "M" Japanese pressing. Admittedly, it is a little better that the US version, but it still is not great SQ IMHO. I still love the music. Actually "Parallels" is one of my absolute all-time favorite songs from YES. |
@spiritofradio - One of my older sisters was a big Poco fan and she gave all her records to me like 30-40 years ago. Haven't listed to "From the Inside" in decades. Maybe I'll give it a spin this weekend..... |
The Moody Blues - "In Search of the Lost Chord" |
I had a Concord "front loading" deck in my tricked-out '73 Super Beetle. Not many "Cal Look" Beetles in KY back in the day, but that's what I drove.
I also later had a Nak RX-202 that flipped that had the turntable that flipped the tape around to reverse it. Crazy.......... |
@gliderman2m - Welcome to the "What's on your Turntable tonight?" thread. Keep 'em coming....... |
Pete Townshend - "The Iron Man"
From the latest Plaid Room Records haul...
Bought this on CD when it first came out. Happy to find a pristine copy on vinyl for $4.99.
Know who's on this recording? John Lee Hooker, The Who and Nia Simone.
|
Father John Misty - "God's Favorite Customer"
|
@intone - I really like the new Father John Misty album. It's my first LP from this artist and I think it is really good. I'll dig further into his other releases...... |
