Hi Tim, 

I have a few Califone lps. Was wondering if their latest efforts are as good?

Did a (deep clean) on the Rex Brown lp from earlier. Listening now. Never heard any Pantera, but when I purchased this lp on my gut instinct a couple years ago, just had a feeling. I really like it!
Was wondering if any of you have the Matthew Sweet/Susanna Hoffs lp? If so, your impressions please?
Van Morrison "A Period of Transition"...to get the cart warned up
The Teskey Brothers "Half Mile Harvest"
Big Star "3rd" OP
Ten Years After "Live at the Fillmore East" 1970/first time on vinyl

Welcome @16f4,

I liked what I read about that Pro-Ject VCS. Hope you enjoy it.
I read somewhere a while back that lps actually go to 40,000 khz. Beyond human hearing but I’m positive we can sense it.
Welcome @krelldog , @ mukiwa,

Regarding the L' Art du Son, it has to be refrigerated doesn't it? I seem to remember it's shelf life isn't very long either? With a Spin Clean, using their fluid is recommended because it has additives that allow the dirt particles to float to the bottom. Important when one is reusing the same water to clean additional lps.
@reubent ,

If you are referring to "I Get Up", I ordered mine the same day as "HMH" off of Amazon. Suppose to be here by the end of this month.
Jim,

I was keen on doing a shootout several weeks ago. Listened to the pp Capricorn/pink label first then when I went to pull out my Classic Records copy, realized it hadn't had my latest cleaning, so another time I guess.
@reubent ,

Finished listening to The Teskey Brothers. Very enjoyable! There seems to be a resurgent of like bands in the last few years.... St/ Paul & the Broken Bones, The Marcus King Band, Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats to name a few, and I ain't complaining.
@boxer12,

After your recent posts, I looked through my Talking Heads lps and found "More Songs About Buildings and Food"...a gift from my older brother's stash. It's a pp, will give it the treatment.
Iron Butterfly "Metamorphosis" WLP/one of my all time great lps...........
I think, it's going to be time to rock...hard after the EC lp..

Thin Lizzy "Johnny The Fox"
@boxer12,

Has there been any other band that has lasted as long as FM, through several generations, while making great music, having great lp sales, and are still going in some respect????
@boxer12,

Great! I’ve got to get "Drums & Guns", it is one of their 5 lps I have in one of my carts.
………………………..
Weinland "Breaks in the Sun"
Love Bob ( I still pull out ’French Kiss" every once in a while) as well as Danny.
………………………………..
M Ward "Transfiguration"
Donovan  "Storyteller"  MsMusic/Audio Fidelity
Decided to listen to Ten Years After later on...

Prince "Black Album" OP/Erotic City Records
The White Stripes  "Elephant"
Jenny Lewis w/ The Watson Twins "Rabbit Fur Coat" SQ = 10
…………………………
@6t5-gt0,

I forget, was Tony Levin, Peter’s bass player at that time?
Regarding "Rocks". I don't think Aerosmith will ever be associated with killer SQ, this pressing is very enjoyable. Glad I own it.Better than what I had.
The Black Angels "Death Song":

I'll work my way through "TYA". It IS sounding very, very good!
@boxer12,

It isn’t the product it once was. Please contact me if you are a potential customer.
………………..

I finally put on LP1 of Ten Years After...so far, so good.....
@6t5-gto,

May I ask what TT you had previously? Do you have a device to check speed?
………………………………………..

BTW, I have the Police box/ re-mastered/half speed @ Abbey Road on order.
Last week, I think, I played Eric Clapton "Behind The Sun". Well, my copy was warped. I’ve since put it through, 2, flattening processes. I think I’m ready to try again. It really has some nice songs.

After listening again, the sonics improved. I'm feeling good about buying the BG re-master, on dbl vinyl @ 45rpm
Uber,

Noticed you and big_greg were remarking on Jeff Healy. I have that lp.

Have you seen the movie Roadhouse?
Jeff is featured. What a great talent!
What I love about "SFJ" most is hearing Neil becoming more willing to share and his morphing into an artist that becomes one with his audience.
@reubent ,

Man, I'm so glad to hear another become so involved with one of my all time favorite lps!!!!!
The Third Mind "S/T"

Any of you ever check this out?

I know @boxer12 & @tomic601 are Jessie Sykes fans. Check out her song "Morning Dew".
