New arrivals..

Death Cab for Cutie "The Georgia E.P."

Mary Gauthier "Mercy Now"

Hey James. Still testing positive although feel okay. If "God's FC" is Tillman's latest, I really like it. I can't keep up with artist' output like I use to. He's a big talent! 

 

Set up my new to me phono stage and volume control this morning. Had to buy some cables/adapters to make it all work. Those will need some break-in I'd imagine.

Here’s my take @j_husker. I’d try to get some diffusers at the first reflection point. Then maybe pull your speakers in 6" (3" each,) and possibly your listening chair.

Good luck!
My two orders of inner sleeves from Vinyl StorageSolutions finally shipped.

Any of you feel you got cheated out of the Craft Recording, small batch, one step on Friday?

RE: "Blues From Laurel Canyon"
I seem to recall my pp has a surprisingly clean jacket but the vinyl is noisy. I need to check it out.


Just checked out my "Blues From Laurel Canyon" lp. It's an EU/Decca/ffss/stereo

Looks like it should clean up well. I should get to it soon.
Neko Case "Hell-On"

First song in and it's clear this lp is recorded much better than I thought when I first bought it. Chalk it up to my decoupling wall mount and other items
Death Cab For Cutie "The Georgia E.P."
12"/one sided/5 song
original was TAS recommended
I believe this is the first re-issue
Proceeds go to a great cause, IMO.
The Stable 33.33 spindle hole reamer has really come in handy since I bought it.
Ingenious/simple design. Those are the best.
I think you were fortunate to still be able to get those Eels lps at a great price Brian.

I ended up purchasing 5 lps while the sale was on.
Mary Gauthier "Mercy Now"
2005/ New West

..."fish swim
birds fly
Daddys yell
Mommas cry"...
Tim @boxer12, I assume and hope you have your B&Ws and Triton stack dialed in now?
I think the REM lp would be a great candidate for a re-master over 2 lps. Maybe @ 45rpm.
