Interesting noromance.
I played Traffic S/T last night and excellent SQ but definitely sounded like it was originally mono and just remastered for stereo by the way the instruments were layered. |
Gimme Some Neck .... Ron Wood. |
|
New Gold Dream .... Simple Minds |
Sailor .... The Steve Miller Band |
Outside Inside ... The Tubes.
Gold promo stamped copy, eek! will the promo police find me! |
Change of Address .... Krokus.
Not listened to these guys in decades!
Pretty good for the age it was in and a ballsy cover of Alice Cooper's Schools Out.
That song was one of my hero anthems at 16......😁😁 |
Talking of "New Riders".....
Feeling Alright ... NROTPS |
The Flaming Lips "Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots" (German) Slaw I just picked that up on DVD-A Japanese copy. SQ is out of this world played back on the Esoteric DV-50S. |
|
|
Boxer.
The DV-50s seems to make the best out of even poor recordings.
For a digital player it is not cold or sterile.
Pity DVD-A lost out as a format. |
Slaw
The German record of Yoshi is likely the one as you say.
I have not found on vinyl yet just a comment that my Japanese DVD-A sounded wonderful.
Enjoy! |
Blood and Chocolate .... Elvis Costello.
Mofo edition. |
Great heartfelt post Geoff.
I found myself agreeing with at least 95% of it.
Land of Confusion and In too Deep are spectacular examples of classic 80,s pop rock at its best.
Truly memorable hooks and melodies with a pointed message to back them up.
Music that transcends just music. |
This is the Way .... Rossington Collins Band.
Checking out my new to me Koetsu Black Goldline that had one open channel.
Expertly repaired by Steven Leung of VAS at a fair price and very quick turnaround . |
Shock ... The Motels.
And a slight tweak of SRA made a big difference.
One thing I have heard about Koetsu, very small changes can make a big Sonic impact.
More top end with no loss of bass or mids.
Sweet! |
Say what GK?
Not very famous if I am not familiar with it!
😉😉 |
REALLY?
Pm me the details if you don't mind |
Tomic.
It's way different from any of my other carts.
A lot more bass and lower mids.
Not quite the top end sparkle the Scheu has or the Nagaoka for that matter.
Separation of details seems superior.
It's a warm cartridge IMHO.
Definitely not in your face type like a Lyra can be. |
Invisible Touch is possibly my favorite Genesis album.
Some sublime songs on it.
Unfortunately I can NEVER rid myself of the Spitting Image puppets to the video of Land of Confusion especially when Reagan in a nightmare hits the big red launch nukes button.
Exactly something I could imagine our present incumbent moron doing..... |
Wild Eyed Southern Boys .... 38 Special.
One of our hometown heroes. |
Home Plate .... Bonnie Rait |
Bent Out of Shape ..... Rainbow.
Even though my least favorite Rainbow vocalist in Turner my excuse is that it is NM+ for a $1....... |
Just been experimenting with speakers position as the Spatial have been in pretty much same place as every other speaker.
3" one way and 2" the other and quite a difference in presentation.
Used a tape to get then both properly lined up with my seated listening position.
For the better....
Free upgrade! |
The wife bought me a book for Christmas.
The greatest 100 albums to own on vinyl.
Just started to look at it.
Well obviously it is all subjective but I don't own many of their top 100 .... Lol. |
Greg.
That one is in my cleaned and ready to play pile!
Just got to get round to it!
So much great music, so little time! |
|
Appetite for Destruction ... Gun's,N,Rose's.
180g remaster from original analog tapes now spread out onto two records.
Not my favorite band but it was on sale in wallyworld at $19.97 so.... Well you know how that goes 😉😏 |
Reubent.
I think you are correct 😉😉
Elton John Greatest Hits |
Always been partial to Mr.Mister.
One of those bands that were oh so close to super stardom but could not repeat their early success and then fizzled.
Kyrie and Broken Wings are just fabulous. |
@reubent
I can send you my address and I will even pay for the shipping down to Florida...….
I freely admit I have no taste!
Lol
|
A Better Place .... Jackrabbit |
@reubent
I wish I had your fortitude in the culling process.
I KNOW I have a number of records that really do not deserve rack space simply because I will never play them again.
But......
CD I seem to have little problem disposing of.... Lol. |
|
Steppenwolf .. The Second |
What you sprung for Slaw?
Thought you was happy with your diy rig. |
Recall the Beginning: A Journey from Eden ..... The Steve Miller Band. |
Slaw
That looks like it is well made, keep me posted on how well it works.
Nice it is made here in the Carolina's.
Btw off to Weldon NC again next week.
Better than WV apart from absolutely ZERO record stores!
Boring! |
Tomic
I got lucky, this was in my LRS $2 box.
They now have $1 boxes, $2 boxes and the giveaway boxes.
Even I could not find anything in the giveaway boxes I remotely wanted!
😂😂😂 |
Thx Mapman... lol
My fingers too fast for this iPad! |
Still Alive and Well.... Johnny Winter |
So let's start the day with a bang!
Fly on the Wall .... AC/DC. |
Spirit.
it is fair bit different as it is distinct songs whereas Remember and Journey were conceptual albums that were basically one complete track.
However musicianship is top knotch as to be expected.
So yea I like it a lot.
|
There's One in Every Crowd .... Eric Clapton. |
Magic is the Child .... Nektar |
I have a pile just like that Greg.... Lol.
The MFSL of Emmylou Harris got thrown in that pile. It's just too country for me to handle even though the SQ is excellent. |
@reubent
your care package arrived today, mucho gracias.
Will get AirPlay later tonight. |
Turn of the Cards ... Renaissance.
Hope I have my diction correct this time.
😇😇 |
Memphis Rock and Soul .... Melissa Etheridge.
This was one of my B&N purchases.
Have to say the SQ is just ok, nothing special. |
