BTW, both copies of "Then Play On" sound very good. Probably the exact same.? |
Up now, the aforementioned Fleetwood Mac box set.
Funny how things work out sometimes....I had ordered the earlier box set, (being shipped now) and then ran across this sealed box at a great price.
I bought "Then Play On" re-mastered by Chris Bellman a few years ago because I didn’t own it. The downside then was, no "Oh Well". It was only released on their UK lp. Also, my experience in trying to find a nice sounding op of "Future Games" didn't leave me much hope in continuing on that search. Made since to get a re-mastered by a respected guy with the master tapes.
Now on this set, it comes on a seperate 7" disc. I’ve seen "Then Play On" as a dbl lp, including "Oh Well for $50.00 since.
The joys of buying vinyl...... |
Kiln House / side one..(interesting record for FM) First song is heavily Elvis influenced, next two songs are The Band influenced, last song is Beatles influenced IMO. |
Side two, obviously "Buddy's Song" Buddy Holly influence.
@onhwy61,
Point taken, just describing my first thoughts. |
Up now:
"Kiln House" from the box.
@bdp24 recently said this was his favorite so I’m looking forward to it!
BTW, this will be my first time hearing the entire lp. Same for "Bare Trees" up later. |
It was readily apparent this version is vastly superior to my copies. Actually one of my personal top FM records.
@drrsutliff ,
You need this one, I believe it's available seperately. |
ELO "Out of the Blue" early US pressing |
@uberwaltz,
I'm ready to 'hug it out' if you are?
Steve |
Norman Greenbaum "Back Home Again" WLP
Such an enjoyable record! |
John Prine "In Spite of Ourselves" |
Fleetwood Mac "Oh Well" parts 1& 2 / from the 7"/45rpm in the aforementioned box set. SQ is first rate! |
@uberwaltz
Down the road, look at Tim’s website www.maze-audio.com he is working on Rega arms, trying to perfect them.
|
Cool!
When you get your spring situation worked out, I strongly suggest you pull out your two MyMats any use them without any clamp/weight.
I have a third party currently reviewing the MyMats. Will send a link when it’s done.

@tomic601 ,
Yeah, the John Prine box |
@uberwaltz,
IMO, this drop had mucho good releases! |
"Kiln House" from the box just came back from a 'spa day'. First a trip in the ORB, then a cooling period in the Vibrato. Ahhh! |
"Can’t Buy a Thrill" SC .... sounding so gooood!
Easily superior to the re-issue. |
|
My system has never sounded better, since I installed my wall decoupling system and then removed the Stillpoints LP1....using two MyMats with no weight/clamp
|
My friendly, neighborhood, postal worker just plopped down my latest find on my porch. A Minty copy of Lucinda Williams "S/T" /Rough Trade.
Will! be playing it later on. |
Rising Appalachia "Wider Circles" |
The Rubinoos "S/T". First press
Just US cleaned/perfectly flat. |
|
@boxer12,
What did they replace? |
Lucinda "Car Wheels...." MOV freshly cleaned............. |
You's guys, this Rubinoos "S/T" is a Big Sleeper! Absolutely love it! |
What I'm hearing now...the Marc Tunis phono cable w/ KLE Absolute Harmony RCAs are outperforming the Deulund |
@elliottbnewcombjr,
I bought all three Rising Appalachia records based upon your post. Have you tried their others? You need to.
|
This Lucinda lp is special. SQ is off the charts! |
Eels "Blinking Lights and Other Revelations" Sides 1 & 2 |
@mammothguy54,
What's up ?
|
Robert Cray Band "Nothin but Love"
2012/Provogue
|
Listening to the title song gives me chills! |
|
I had seen a Kuzma 9" arm for under $1500.00 in the past |
Haven't heard Jim @tomic601 talk about his SOTA set-up lately after all the upgrades??? |
Sarah Jarozs "Undercurrent" |
Didn't know of a price object but considered it in my recommendations |
Father John Misty "Fear Fun" |
I increased the price of a MyMat to $59.99 each. Get em while you can.
I'm sure this price will rise significantly soon.
|
Still have my tt project in the back of my mind. It will use the SOTA/Phoenix Engineering motor/psu/tach. I’ve had the outboard motor enclosure top plate, machined out of 6061 aluminum. Got a VPI Super Platter/ bearing in the wings, as well as my ET 2.5/set-up.....also a Moerch DP 8 |
Bonny Light Horseman "S/T"
I'm still grateful to James @spiritofradio , for turning me on to this great record! |
|
|
|
@uberwaltz,
Hope you and others seek it out. |
@bkeske,
I don't have any experience, but the Zeta arm recommended by @bdp24 , is very inexpensive for it's price/performance. |
@bkeske,
Again, no personal experience...
Audiomods Kuzma |
I'm already dreading my end of day, end of listening for several days
