Good to know, thanks. Tell Kevin we all miss him on this forum, especially.

Second spin for this…

While I have the mono cart on….

Oscar Peterson Trio with Milt Jackson - Very Tall. Verve 1962 mono

Got unlazy and put my mono cart on. Re-start 🙂

Just arrived today…..

Cannonball Adderley - Something Else. With Miles Davis, Hank Jones, Sam Jones, & Art Blakey. Blue Note reissue 2014, originally 1958 mono.

Too lazy to but my mono cart on right now, but sounds pretty incredible regardless.

To me, as good as Kind of Blue

Mono cart still mounted….one of my favs:

Budapest String Quartet - Beethoven: The Six Quartets, Op. 18. Odyssey 3LP box reissue 1969 mono, originally 1959. Recorded 1951

Yep, I do Steve. I simply meant mounted to the arm….and VTF….and VTA adjustments necessary for critical listening. So not as simply as swapping, but easier than unmounting and mounting on a fixed headshell.

@mvrooman1526 

Good stuff. Although he was a bit older when he passed, I feel similarly about Eric Dolphy. 

Eduard van Beinum conducts Brahms - Symphony No. 2 In D Major, Op. 73. Concertgebouw Orchestra Amsterdam. Epic late 50’s

Mono

Edit: I really forgot how wonderful a recording this is. Mono recorded and engineered well (even 70 years old) really does have a stereophonic stage and depth to it. This is delightful.

Brian, i never inhaled…

@spiritofradio

I have many good memories associated with my records and tapes.

I as well James. I have quite a few LP’s that by my standards today, were simply mishandled way back in the 60’s & 70’s. I’ve considered replacing them with cleaner versions, but there is an odd sentimental memory of hearing the same clicks and pops today that I’ve been used to for years, and reminds me of my friends gathering in my room spinning records….and of course…getting stoned 😉

Branford Marsalis - Renaissance. Columbia 1987

Just arrived today…in really great condition
