although i am hoping for a T1 line and Qobuz on the beach…

It’s good to dream big, Brother!

I can listen to 2 songs (well, that come to mind) drone on and on, Terrapin Station and Neil Young’s Be The Rain (Greendale). I am a simple man. :-)

@mammothguy54 👍👍

I have Careful, but not the third. I’m surprised at the SQ, I hadn’t listened to this LP in a while. Brothers iin MD infatuation! 😂😂

Aerosmith / Get Your Wings
1974 CBS

Motels / S-T
1979 Capitol

i saw them in ‘79 in a small venue, close enough to Martha Davis to smell her perfume. Infatuation ever since. Me, probably not Martha. 😁

Hi Jim, 1974 Island Records ILPS9254 shows on the label. Nothing on the dead wax.

Dire Straits / Love Over Gold
1892 Warner Bros.

Like other DS LPs I have (all OP), fabulous sonics.

Grateful Dead / Terrapin Station
1977 Arista 
I remember a 70’s outdoor summer concert near Eugene when they played Terrapin Station. It seemed like it went for hours, I didn’t mind. It could’ve gone longer.

Jim Capaldi / Whale Meat Again
1974 Island
 Capaldi on his own during some down time with Traffic, great SQ here.

Hey James, we shoulda saved our $$ and gone with streaming this one. I like supporting a favorite artist but…
In the same package I got that Lady Blackbird LP which is very well done, no complaints there.

Van Morrison / Moondance
1970 Warner Bros.
More outstanding SQ, exceptional bass

@spiritofradio Picked mine up at MM yesterday(!), replaced my original that was getting noisy and the jacket was decomposing. Nice score James, enjoy!

Neil Young / Are You Passionate?
2002 Reprise
Double LP, outstanding SQ

Grateful Dead / From The Mars Hotel
1974 Grateful Dead Records

A favorite Dead record, ++ SQ and interesting back story on the album cover—was it Ugly Roomers, Ugly Rumors, or ??

+1 Michael Hedges, nice late night choice James.

The Flying Burrito Bros / The Gilded Palace Of Sin
2017 A&M Reissue, orig. 1969

The Rolling Stones / Their Satanic Majesties Request
1967 Decca

Especially good with headphones

Jefferson Starship / Red Octopus
1975 Grunt Records
I’d forgotten how good this is.
Also had the 8 track cassette way back when…😎

David Crosby / If I Could Only Remember My Name
2021 R-E, orig. 1971 Atlantic
Arrived today, you all were right about this record! Thanks…

Ace / Time For Another
1975 Anchor

I like this record, play it a lot. I was noticing it wasn’t sounding so great and there was more surface noise than usual. I realized I hadn’t de-magnetized the Delos in a while. This gadget is amazing, reduced the surface noise to almost nothing and restored bass and detail I didn’t realize I was missing. Only works on moving coils. Highly recommended!
