Guy Clark "Workbench Songs" 

2016/Dualtone 

with a title like that, it's gotta be good

Not sure why he’s not mentioned more? 

The more I delve, the more I like!!

Mono

Finally listening to the BIG Joni Mitchell box from her archives. 

Lp 1 up now..

I've been trying to get their mono remasters from the original tapes by the great mastering engineers. Seems like the best and most economical way to get the mono stuff.

I got in another lp order from an unlikely place. Morrow Audio has a record shop now. What impressed me was several lps I had previously given up on for the time being were there. One stop shopping! No shipping/tax to N C.

In a quest to aquire additional components for another system, I ran across this, ( Audia Flight FL Phono and a SPL Volume 2) to test out in my current system. Have plans to try out a passive as well.

Currently auditioning a new phono cable for the VPI. Decided not to have that 3D arm rewired. It's a Zavfino  The Highlands MKII.

The Blasters "Live 1986" 

2011/Rock Beat Records 

Recorded 1986 The Coach House

Yeah Bill. I have and I was following the thread here regarding switching to that arm. Part of me has had issues with VPI and part of me because of this is leaning in another direction. The Moerch DP 8 that I already own. Why not?

Greg, if you haven’t already, go to their website. Interesting in how they’re made. 

I forgot to mention that I had been listening to a Bob's Devices mid line cable, which is good but not as refined at every level as the Zavfino.

Lyle Lovett "12th of June"

2022/Verve

That hair man! Don’t know who was first, Lyle or Kramer. It has worked well for both.

Joanne Shaw Taylor "The Blues Album"

2021/Keeping The Blues Alive Records

the Blues and tubes go well together. Sadly the SQ isn’t the best. An 8 out of ten is stretching it. 

Still enjoyable!

Colter Wall "S/T"

2020/La Handa Records

This is one I’ve been searching for. From Morrow Records.

I didn't have the heart to say it but since Eric did ......... I learned my lesson too late on the Four Men With Beards releases.
