Cool album cover Bill!!! First time seeing it. Is Ronnie Lane on this one?

 

REM "Out of Time"

1991/Warner Bros/(DMM in dead wax)

I always liked this album. I remember reading REM purists not liking it. This copy sounds great!! Maybe tilted up slightly. Maybe a case where with the balance tilted upward and music overcomes this.

Red Rider "Neruda" 

1984/Capitol 

one of the best alternative albums from that era, and it really holds up.

The Mountain Goats "In League of Dragons"

2014/Merge 

These guys have really developed as a band. To say the least!

Alanis Morissette "Jagged Little Pill"

1995/Maverick/Reprise/Germany

I believe this to be the op in this county.

@j_husker,

Your healing must be miraculously to be able to mount a cartridge.😊

Brian, I finally put in another resistor, well actually I'm using a supplied jumper to give me 980 ohms which was your first suggestion and it finally made sense to me to try the highest value and listen for a while to hear (that) difference then make any other changes later. System was off since Sunday and just been on an hour but the soundstage is wide and the music is extended like I was hoping for. More to come hopefully. Got the Freya+ in and some vintage tubes, so excited for future listening.

@jek05 ,

Welcome to this thread. There are a few here who have remarked on "Live at Leeds " Abbey Road but don’t recall anyone mentioning Tommy. Check out youtube, 45RPMAudiophile’ channel. He recently talked about it.

Feeling nostalgic and feisty... 

Nazareth "Hair of the Dog"  

A&M Records/my safety copy

Hey Joel, 

I love The Baby's. I always pull out Broken Heart. I think they were a little edgier on that one.

 

The Byrd’s "Fifth Dimension"

Sundazed/mono/"cut from the original Columbia Records analog masters" 

Eight Miles High really has great bass, so it does on the Untitled album as well.

Hey @juanmanuelfangioii ,

Whew! It's exhausting writing out your username..

Saw them live, haven’t listened in a while.

Here's a rarely mentioned lp, 

Navasota ",Rootin'". 

1972/ABC Records/WLP

I use to think the same thing when I would watch their videos @6t5-gto and then there's Greg Hawkes. Foget a bout it.

 

 

Frank Black & The Catholics "Black Letter Days"

Nick, 

Are you to a point in speaker break-in that you can say the new speakers have enhanced your listening?

Gordon Lightfoot "Sundown"

MFSL/1974/before digital

Nothing sounds forced or in anyway unnatural. Really a reference lp.

Finishing up, 

Beth Hart "Live at Royal Albert Hall" lp 3 

This title sounds fantastic! Highly recommended!
