Eric Clapton / 461 Ocean Boulevard

Yes, it has the hit “I Shot The Sheriff” and then a great follow-up with side 2’s lineup and “Let It Grow”.

The Wonderful Sounds Of Female Vocals / Various Artists
2018 Analogue Productions

An outstanding compilation by AP


Dire Straits / Brothers In Arms
2014 Mobile Fidelity 45rpm RE, otig. 1985

i got my Claim Form for the MoFi settlement, this $60 LP qualifies for a $3 award. I prefer it’s sound over my 1985 OP. I have just a few MoFi’s, not all are sonic improvements over the originals. My claim would come to a whopping $12, I’m giving that up to MoFi and hope they weather the storm.

Eagles / One Of These Nights
1975 Asylum 

I need to play more Eagles, good stuff

Counting Crows / August And Everything After
2012 Analogue Productions 45rpm RE, orig. 1993

New Rhino reissue came today, fabulous improvement in SQ over my OP. I’m amazed at the quality of the LP, astonishing silence that allows the low level detail to shine. Overall, impressive effort by Rhino.
Showing the new gatefold, the front cover’s the same.

Motels / S-T

Great songs, especially the psychedelic pop of Donovan’s “Season Of The Witch”
