Glad your back @jmolsberg.

I was getting ready to play Steely Dan "Can’t Buy a Thrill" and realized I have 3 copies. Well, I’m not going to do the dance tonight. I’ll just play the OP/w/ no bar code.

Peace, my brothers.

Re-listened to Jimmie D Lane "It's Time"  WOW!
Uncle Tupelo "No Depression"  Sony/Legacy
@boxer12,

In the end...I think you may have made the smarter trade.

If not for that trade, I could be trading emails with another person?
All of these lps sound great. With the 45rpm lp, the difference is more energy, greater dynamics, a improved sense of urgency. Great talent!
@jmolsberg,

I hope the Microzolter is breaking in nicely. Sorry if I misspelled it.
……………………………

Putting on the Cardas degaussing lp now. It really does help, I just keep forgetting to do it.
As usual, the sonics are great and the content has that intoxicating effect, as usual.
Drive-By-Truckers  "Southern Rock Opera"

@6t5-gto,

Well, It's about damn time you posted!
I think the Dynavector has warmed up know. Up next..

Land of Talk "Some Are Lakes"
@jmolsberg,

Thanks SO much for that compliment dude!

I'm sorry that I'm unaware of Leon Bridges. I'll try to search him out. Looking forward to more of your recommendations.
@boxer12,

I was wondering if you were still (here).
………………………….

Ric Ocasek "This Side of Paradise" An under-the-radar, great lp!

Hopefully/maybe...@boxer12...could this lp be THE ONE we connect with?

What is MRL?

……………………

At last, I'm finally putting on Son Kill Moon "Ghosts of the Great Highway"

See ya.....
Alan Parsons "Tales of Mystery and Imagination" MFSL/one of my "go to" cassettes during my youth.
Years ago, I went to an estate sale. The deceased was a professor at a local college. There were hundreds of lps. Back then, I was ignorant and uninformed. If I had it all to do over again??

Anyway, I now own a few 6-eye Miles lps. They cost me $1.00 each.
………………………………

Lucinda Williams  "West" 
BTW, even my repress of "Soft Bulletin" is very impressive sonically. I think Fremer said the OP was life changing or something like that.
Hey @boxer12,

Have you heard any of Ty Segall’s latest stuff? I think he’s released 2 lps this year that I’m interested in hearing about.
………………………….
The Royal Southern Brotherhood  "Don't Look Back"
@noromance ,

Kind of wondered, looking at your system,. How do you decide which quadrant of your space/systems to listen to? Is one system/space better for a certain mood/music??????
Richard Thompson "Still" 45rpm/dbl lp/produced by Jeff Tweedy

First listen after it's first US clean.
Actually @nkphoto,

It was @uberwaltz that first posted tonight about The Strawbs. I just like seeing the right people getting their due.

Glad to have posting here.
@spiritofradio,

You, at least moved farthest? away from your past as humanly possible?
Frankly, my system has never sounded better than since the introduction of the Hydra 8.
@tomic601 ,

It’ll be on after I finish the SE records. It is now flat. BTW, "Terraplane" rocks!!!
I decided to hook up the Hydra 8 initially straight to the wall then plug my (6) into the (8) driving all of my front end.

For the first hour, I could say things were slightly dulled yet still musical. After 4 hours now, the soundstage is becoming more full, natural and even more enjoyable.

This is my initial trial. So far so great!
Finished "Still". Not sure why Jeff and Richard chose to work together other than maybe mutual admiration, but it's the standard, great RT record.
........................................
Glen Hansard "Between Two Shores" again. My pressing has this irritating scratchy noise on the last track of side two that I never took the time to address. Decided to today. Deep steam clean then long US clean. My feeling is it's the vinyl and not something that can be cleaned. Well, it's up next. Great album though!
@spiritofradio,

I looked up the definition of paradiddle.

I learned something today! Thank you, now it’s up to me to retain it.

You were a Wall Streeter? Never would have known it brother.
@spiritofradio,

Was that you’re confession?

I'm giving you a hard time. You're still my brother.
BTW, I set the Hydra 8 on a Symposium Ultra just the right size I bought over a year ago in preparation.
