Dire Straits - Making Movies ( MoFi 45 rpm #2514, it looks like 2513 was the lucky white hot stamper.... oh well, maybe next time ??????! ) |
Streaming Grace and Lies.... |
nice. review on the cables....omg science crept in.... |
LiL Feat - Hoy Hoy ( gold stamp promo copy ... must be a hot stamper... ) |
the guitar reverb reeks of carmelized chocolate, echoes of flowery text to the drunken lyrics with a hint of jasmine in the hi hat... |
|
streaming Eva - Acoustic.....enjoying the pared down takes...she was a wonder |

@slaw ! Cool, it feels like I ordered Tapestry a year ago for Trish, one of her absolute favorites….. have to pick it up w RCM, same local shop….audio and record crack dealer…
|
@tgilb Thanks so much for detailed and well thought out evaluation of the Colvin / Earle collaboration. I like to think i have invested in decent analog LP, digital and high speed tape gear to discern relative strengths and weaknesses, but i appreciate the input..especially prior to investing in the LP. …many, many thanks

Steve - Yes night before last, got home late yesterday so i missed her live stream w Q and A, hopefully they archived it. I have it on again now and am impressed with it. I like the tone, rhythm and departure from pure Americana. First track has some impressive low end grunt. My white vinyl pressing is super quiet over 95% or better… Super enjoyable.
I see available also on Tidal.

Steve - Yes, the Crooked Still LP you sent me so generously is a sonic wonder ;-)

@#$&$#@........after warmup, the Ref system just destroys .... a real first world problem
on deck Romantic Warrior |
Warren Haynes featuring Railroad Earth - Ashes and Dust, which is sounding great......
and Steve is correct, Man in Motion has some grit and compression in the mids , evident on certain of the multi track bits, but not all. i was graced to catch this tour live in a super smal venue and he tore it up, youthful enthusiasm on my part, fond acoustic memory..... |
@slaw ha!,,,, what else did you expect from Ohio troublemaker? no scraps deployed North. i did bring a brick and scraps and all 3 South bricks now have mymat under. i got them installed hours before leaving...
will advise IF it’s enough to fix Warren Haynes.....stay tuned.... |

Renaissance- Turn of the Cards |
The Police - Ghosts in the Machine ( box set Abbey Road remasters, very much worth it IMO ) |
|
snow here North of Greg, maybe 5” down at sealevel, and we have power !!! tubes warming up, espresso maker humming along...
BTW, snow improves signal to noise, time to hunt down things that vibrate...... |
Brian - So appreciate the LP covers, especially the “ wild man “
@whatsaftumch Great contributions so far, please do ! Best tgread on audiogon made so by posters. Nice tribute to a friend. I have seen Rickie in her faded glory behind a concert grand, had she knocked on my door, i would’ve asked her to stay some count of decades…..

Steve, not a fair fight...I hooked the SOTA up in the vintage room to isolate an issue w MX-110 phono stages and then got sidetracked.."i will get it moved to Reference system over next several days...... |
i can say I am super impressed with the Hana ML.....great value.... |
David Lindley, small venue, acoustic solo, small amp electric, no PA.....just insanely good. |
Steve i have Rumors cranked up.....
wishing i had brought new Mazzy with me North... |
Brian - streaming Carolyn…i get the multi faceted…attraction…

The Peter Malick Group - Chance and Circumstance featuring: Norah Jones, Kirsten Proffit, Jess Klein, Mercy Malick and a fave of of few on this thread Antje Duvekot...
Wish this was available on LP, CD on the Marantz Pro will have to do, using the big gun DAC...hardly seems fair.
Malick can play |
….must…NOT…lust after…wait for it……….
A mono cartridge…..
