The New Black Eagle Jazz Band ‎– On The River (Dirty Shame 1974)

Love these guys. So much humor in their playing. 
Muggsy Spanier - S/T (Everest 1968)

One side sounds great. NM.
The other sounds fine except the cymbal work is distorted, staticy, bright and splashy as if the stylus was chipped. Anyone ever heard this type of damage?  
Dinah Shore ‎– Moments Like These (RCA Victor ‎1958)

"New Orthophonic" promising "You can buy today, without fear of obsolescence in the future."
Little did they know!
Nice record. 
Apparently, the orange album cover, when stared at, causes a green after-image. Green. 
Miles Davis ‎– Kind Of Blue
(Columbia/Legacy 2010 180)

I have a 1959 copy but it is barely in 'Good' condition. 
Shame.
@slaw It’s years since I played REM. Last time I remember was Green being a hot mess of echos and processing. 
Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen / Sam Jones ‎– Double Bass (Inner City 1977)
Ha, slaw, spinning it now. I only played it once as it didn't sound great on the rig back then. Now, it's mint and sounds freaking awesome. Thanks for the reminder!

Bought it when it came out. Recorded it to TDK CrO2 and played it on the Pioneer head in the car back in the day.
