There is a way to share discogs collections on discogs ... but technology at the level escapes me....
i do seem to have mastered the BUY function |
yes, I never buy anything below mint or near mint, I never relax that rule, and i read a lot of the feedback. in about 100 transactions , two were clearly fraudulent and i took them to task in the feedback and thru discogs help.
one idiot who runs an antique shop in Sedona sent me a trashed album. I told him it was two or three grades below how he rated it and filthy and I asked for a refund of the difference in value and that he donate that refund to a local food bank...he tried to whack me with negative feedback, he lost that war...

@slaw the Old Kit bag is an absolute gem... and like most RT has a dark side for sure
you guys are all such great music masters, this is without doubt my favorite Audiogon thread and micro community |
Ego is a learning block

fun
|
finally a MFSL GAIN 2 worthy of lavish praise and i am only 2 of 4 sides in...Alison Krauss & Union Station - So Long So Wrong |
Van the Man - Astral Weeks
|
@noromance Charles to Syd, now that is a LEAP....
spinning the 2012 remaster on Legacy of Graceland....
not trying to start a fight, Lord knows I fully invested in Digital and it’s related black arts, but the track Homeless is an analog tour de force for echo, delay, attack, sustain in the acoustic space....yum
fun, enjoy the music... |
@noromance well then thanks for the illumination of the bastard child, which frankly sounds great!!!! Fremer even references a conversation w Roy but obviously simplifies the A to D edit, back to A production thread...as a 30 ips stereo master dump to direct metal...ha. I certainly learned something.....
|
@noromance Fremer says otherwise and also talks about the OP being DMM direct metal master, but I agree with my faulty memory acounted for, that this reissue is way better than my OP ( long since sold ) and my digital server copy of the CD...
moved on to the fresh new and RELAXED Another Time, Another Place by Jennifer Warnes...nice song selection, lets her hair down a bit....well recorded, excellent pressing quality, so far... |
is anybody in the august group Erasure fan ? I have a minty copy of Wonderland on Intervention ( IR-009 ) that while I cannot seem to connect with, would be happy to send it along to someone who would APPRECIATE it and undertake some similar pay it forward notion to another soul.... |
finishing out the eve with Patricia Barber - Nightclub. Lovely sonics |
also The War Department here says no more Vinyl until we get a furniture grade record cabinet, thinking Prathermade from Ohio, but wanted to ask this august body... ???? help a brother out.... |

Linda Ronstadt - Living in the USA - OP
Dylan and The Band - The Basement Tapes- MOFI
Jesse Sykes & The Sweet Hereafter - Oh, My Girl

Blue Note |
Funny story in 1994 we bought a little rambler on a dead end street on old scenic hill in Kent, Washington. Walking down the street one of the first evenings I come to the end of the street and up against a tall wire fence, overgrown field inside and a peekaboo view of a Tudor style manor house and detached carriage house barn. Coming from the carriage house is the plaintive but absolutely shredded wail of the Heart Barracuda riffs... I remarked to my wife, whoever is playing is better than Heart... she said, oh that is Howard Leese, Hearts’ guitar player.... I walked a lot more after that...
|
@big_Greg. nice score on the table, hard as it might be I would encourage reservation of judgement till you get a familiar cartridge on it.... |
@slaw digging into Caroline Spence via Tidal and she is certainly a talent. I particularly like Hotel Amarillo so far....
thanks for the referral... |
@slaw if it makes ya feel better I had to look up adjective
|
@slaw adjective used before the noun: impressive, making you feel respect
Oxford |
Thanks all for recommendations on record racks, like the reclaimed wood since the analog LP system is “ beachy” per War Department instructions... the Etsy connections are awesome |
@spiritofradio thanks so much, the reference system is esconced in and surrounded by Stickley, etc...so that would fit in there for sure.
and yes, anything below my knees is in a foreign land I rarely visit, at my advancing age.. |
@big_greg love me some Feats ! Try the Nautilus Records Time Loves a Hero for grins |
Julie Miller - Broken Things
perfect album for watching the last vestiges of the sunset... |
because this made sense...
Buddy Miller - The Majestic Silver Strings..
@spiritofradio yes, fantastic sound out of a server is very possible, I use an Aesthetix tube output stage DAC....
Houses of the Holy is up next :-)
|
Ray Lamontagne - Till The Sun Turns Black |
the August body has tastes that range far and wide....you are amazing
back up North, so anything i mention will be from the server
Patty Griffin - 1,000 Kisses... |
My server rip of Houses of the Holy is 2008 el cheapo issue w cardboard sleeve and not the later remaster which I shall seek out in Vinyl IF the Octoberfest body of Zep scholars thinks this a worthy quest...
but the server rip is great, over the Hills rocks.... |

Son Volt - Notes of Blue after a nice revisit of Trace

@uber is the disc warped also ? Assuming you don’t have a subsonic filter, AND the high LF energy on that track and only 100 wpc might in combination push it into protect...???? |
|
Tom Petty - Hypnotic Eye ( man this dude is sure missed ) |
@noromance VTA on the fly gives me the willies... |
Uber, I understand...there are those pesky limits.... |
thanks all for record rack inputs, we decided to go w Prather 2 bin model in Cherry with galvanized rod. Holds about 300 so should hold me for another year, or so......
my next post may ask for decent divorce attorney.....NOT |
backhauled some vinyl to the Condo and am rediscovering Feat - Waiting for Columbus on MoFi.....what a gem....certainly a band at TOP of game...
|
Paul Barrere - On My Own Two Feat
