@bkeske Good to hear you are clamp free! Have you tried no mat?
Also glad you got the pink cable. The dark green one is crap. |
I prefer to play The Beatles when I’ve clothes on.
|
Uriah Heep - Demons And Wizards (Bronze 1972)
|
Uriah Heep - Very Eavy Very Umble (Vertigo 1970) |
@tomic601
try Norwegian Wood sans clothing...
I see what you did there. That's why I prefer low compliance. |
Vangelis – L'Apocalypse Des Animaux (Polydor 1973)
Excellent and beautiful composition. |
Tom Waits – Franks Wild Years (Island 1987)
Songwriting doesn't get much better than this. |
Various - Rural Blues Vol 3: Down Home Stomp (Imperial 1970)
|
Destroyer – City Of Daughters (Merge 2018)
Tomas Örnberg's Blue Five – Come Back, Sweet Papa (Stomp Off 1989)
Franz Lehár - Kölner Rundfunk Chor Und Orchester – Paganini (RCA Victrola 1978)
|
@spiritofradio Thanks for the recommendation of Petite Fleur. Streaming it now. Very tight arrangements. Sweet vocals.
|
Good luck with the Croft. Mine is on fire!! |
@tomic601 Glad to hear Croft is up. Bulk Foils! |
Ella Fitzgerald - Sings The Gershwin Song Book Vol. 1 (Verve 1959 mono)
|
Big Jay McNeely – Deacon Rides Again [1951] (Imperial 1983)
Historic! |
Brahms: Yehudi Menuhin With The Lucerne Festival Orchestra Conducted By Wilhelm Furtwängler – Violin Concerto in D op77 [1949] (Seraphim 1972 mono) |
@bdp24 Great post. I was thinking when I was listening to BJM that this was the precursor to rock and roll. The roots. Hence my "Historic" comment. |
@slaw There's reasons I don't play Steely D. Over-production is one. So yeah but it sounded good. The Ella 1959 mono blows it away.
|
Julia Lee & Her Boy Friends – A Porter's Love Song 1945-1947 (Jukebox Lil 1985 mono)
|
Aja - Steely Dan (ABC 1977)
Despite this being popular with everyone, I haven't played this in over 30 years. SQ solid. |
@tomic601 I don't even own DSOTM. Too many nights at parties back then when TGGITS seemed to last hours.
|
Ocean - Put Your Hand In The Hand
(Kama Sutra 1971)
I don't think I ever played this. Hmm... gospel in the free love era. Flowers in my beard.
|
@bkeske
Furtwängler's certainly an interesting character. Close to Hitler, undisciplined, brash and unpredictable. Yet magnificent.
|
Brenda Lee – Reflections In Blue (Decca 1967)
Like coming home. Especially after the not very good DG I abandoned. |
@tomic601 Good to hear you liked it. You have me wanting to give it another spin!
|
@jerryg123 +1 The The - Infected. What a cracking album. The bastard gave me tinnitus 20 years ago.
|
Kid Ory’s Creole Jazz Band – This Kid’s The Greatest! (Good Time Jazz 1962 mono)
One of my favs. Just great. |
The Good Life – Everybody's Coming Down (Saddle Creek 2015)
|
@cleeds I didn’t intend my comment to mean banned by government. Whether it was corporate censorship of some sort, the record sold in the US with a different cover. I looked into this a little more and it seems ATCO did release a version with the original cover. I stand partially corrected!
|
David Whitfield – Alone (London 1961)
|
Florian Zabach – 'Till The End Of Time (Mercury 1959)
They used a Macintosh 150watt power amp to drive the cutter from an Ampex 301. Sounds very good.
|
There were scores. Some were just marketing decisions. E.g. Roy Harper HQ - Hipnosis cover of RH walking on water was deemed inappropriate for the US.
And then there's Roger Waters Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking censored tush of a cartoon ass. |
Freddie Hubbard – Ride Like The Wind (Elektra Musician 1982)
|
Iron + Wine – Our Endless Numbered Days (Sub Pop 2005)
|
Five Guys Named Moe - S/T (RCA BMG 1990)
Scottish indie band that only lasted one album. Mixed bag. Better songs sung by the female band member. |
The Lennon Sisters – Our Favorite Songs (Pickwick 33 1965)
Sixties pop with great sound quality. In the room. Magic. |
Santo & Johnny – On The Road Again (Imperial 1968) side 1
|
Marty Robbins with The Jordanaires – Just A Little Sentimental (Columbia 6eye mono 1961)
Another in the room recording. Lovely. |
Not sold on 45 rpm or 2 LP versions. I've 70s almost flexi-thin vinyl that sound incredible and 180 gram LPs that are noisy and dull. Give me an analog 50s/60s disk most days.
|
I must dig out my The Doobie Bros albums. Haven’t been played in over 30 years.
|
+1 Pere Ubu.
David Thomas is an awesome performer. |
Roger Waters - In The Flesh (DVD) on the big screen rig. |
Ian & Sylvia – Early Morning Rain (Vanguard 1965)
|
Ian & Sylvia – Northern Journey (Vanguard 1964)
|
Ian & Sylvia – Lovin' Sound (MGM 1967)
|
@ctwith3 Looks like you're having fun. How's the Manley? Consider adding your system to your profile. |
@spiritofradio Make sure to listen with a cuppa tea.
|
John Cale – The Academy In Peril [1972] (Edsel 1986 RE)
Always a favorite. Not sure why. It's weird in an Andy Warhol way. Excellent recording will show off your rig. "The Philosopher" is stunning. |
Just streamed Van the Man in bed. You guys!!
|
Skeeter Davis – Blueberry Hill And Other Favorites (RCA Camden 1965)
|
Little Willie Littlefield – It’s Midnight [1949-57] (Route 66 1979 mono)
