I saw them, I guess 20 years ago?> I was gifted the tickets. Upon listening at the show, there was a portion that introduced the players.... when Steve Ajerrie was introduced,I was dumbfounded. Up until then, I thought it was Steve Perry. 
You have a (WPP) white person problem when a device/app tells you what you should know.
loomisjohnson,

Have you compared it to "Let It Be" (Naked)?

I'd go for "Abbey Road" or "Rubber Soul" or even "Revolver" (if was recorded better). "A Hard Day's Night" is underrated, IMO.

Happy Listening!
@schubert,

"best thing we do"

If you call staying in debt, "best thing we do".
Both Journey lps I played sound Killer!. And to boot, they are re-issues.
Uber,

If I felt confident enough in decipherring your post, then and only then, could I answer.
@tomic601,

I beat you by 3 hours. First time working in 5 months!

Up now the latest "Goats Head Soup" re-mastered at Abbey Road, I got the 2 lp version. Vinyl looks great. Will report on it as I listen.
OK, I’m two/thirds through "GHS" lp 2
Interesting how these out-takes are more dynamic.? Love it!!!

Lp 2 is extremely enjoyable!
Brian,

One thing I finally worked out with my new wall decoupling system is I now have my two tt’s on the same platform for easy comparison.

Of course, my Trio allows for two phono inputs.

VTA on the fly is a nice item. In precise thinking, anytime you raise/lower your arm, it does affect VTF.

My Funk Firm arm has manual VTA and it really isn’t a big deal.
Hey fellows! I installed two new springs under the (heavy side, VPI) of my wall system today. They have a higher load rating of around 18 lbs each more than the other side. Initial impressions are very positive. The music seems to break free of the electronics/speakers even more, there is more depth, and increased transparency. Good stuff.
Pulled out my copy of "Tusk". It’s a period pressing (pp), back cover says printed & manufactured in England. This may just be the jacket, I don’t know. Put it in the cleaner for a fresh clean.
Putting "Tusk" on now. Upon closer inspection, "Mastered by Capitol" in the dead wax. I guess that answers any questions.
@tomic601 ,

Saw the slab...nice! If you weren’t aware, I’m a frustrated woodworker..Have the equipment...don't have the time...
@uberwaltz,

Will clean and re-listen soon...brother.

Out of the two Federale lp I’ve opened, both are warped. I’m confident "Music From ’La Rayar’" is playable.

Put it on and the Sussurro is a champ!
@tomic601,

I know you can't see it, but on my amp/stand/platform, I did that very thing. It all locks in nicely. A great feeling.
@tomic601 ,

BTW, if you end up using springs for your amp platform, the final solution is to recess them 1/8" into the platform. Access to a drill press helps as it has repeatable depth stop.
Always loved "Moonflower" for the music. I wore out the cassette. I own a pp and a WLP. It's been years since I listened but my memory is SQ isn't the best. Need to do a fresh clean/listen.
Uber,

That's the very reason I've invested in the equipment I own.

"One Stop Shop"

With this equipment and a daily dose of Duloxetine, I'm good bro.
@boxer12,

Glad you love it brother. I meant to check in to see if you had it yet.

You're reaction still has me smiling!
