Rainmaker…is a top ten song for me…..and the entire West could use that..right about now….
nothing but live music this eve…. 3 pc band in our common area… Allman, Creedance, Stones, etc… |
he said “ desire is the last domino to fall”……
didn’t exactly say about…what….maybe nos tubes ?
ha.
i gotta stream it.. |
hi Steve….metal…hadn’t thought of it that way…in THEORY should be better…but….. this copy has some pops that almost skip…..argh…..and i love listening to Mountain Jam….late at night…. “ turn your lamp down low “…… |
Steve - Eat a Peach going back soon :-( should be easy as LRS sourced….
nice review of Tim’s work with Noteworthy cables - when my reference system settles down I have some needs. |
Rush sounded great on my Pioneer under dash and AFS Crickets….. |
|
James - gotta find my Springsteen cass with Racing in the Streets
70 Firebird w 400
” and I blew that Camaro off my back “…
|
|
Could be, heck…. For a brief period I thought it was Monday…. I have been using it for a year, except when the cleaning lady thought it was vinegar for the floors….. expensive vinegar |
your my record cleaning savant Steve - keep it coming !,,, |
Ha, I believe you referred to the disc I sent you cleaned w Brooks stuff as “ looks like you used lighter fluid “… I bought a gallon, I like it. The Monrovia store is about an hour fifteen North of me in California - but I hear they are moving to ????? Maybe @bdp24 has intel. |
Nitty Gritty DB, 8/13/2020….. I have to tape off the turntable w blue painters tape and the tube amp and speakers on spikes to keep the urge to dust at bay….
The things i do for domestic bliss…..
|
i am catching up on milage..
Lucinda - Live at the Fillmore… ( server )….. this is really, really fine… |
Stones - Some Girls ( OP w banned cover ) |
The Dan - Two Against Nature ( RSD )…….. ah, the smile grows…. |
The Dan - Everything Must Go ( RSD )….. just love it….. |
@bdp24 i heard about a month ago that locale was TBD and that Tom the wonder tech was on his last month of accepting repair work…..he rebuilt my RM-9 w wonderful results…i hope he sets up shop somewhere…. |
Gaucho..beater club edition, quite convinced thru planetary alignment it is a white hot …something…. How can the sax lie ? |
Crosby - Name ( German pressing ) |
Al Di Meola - Elegant Gypsy
my favorite high speed guitarist…… |
….well, i met her at work..different department but still “ fishing off the company pier “… caught my interest when her weekend plan was NW Folklife festival… asked her how that went and she handed me a Music of the Andes cassette…… I made her a LiL Feat mixtape, the rest is history….
mutual listening waxes and wanes….we do a thing w server, she will do a search of song titles with a word…like rain, heart, river, etc… The NAIm crunches thru 3k plus ripped CD’s and generates a playlist… i let her drive 2 For LP, i just let her have discogs collection view and she picks 4-6 to play…… |
we call it “ Music Nite “, she Trish is much more Video aligned, so she will often pull me in to Music documentary…Tom Petty ( The Greatest American band, ever ! ), Rush, Eagles, etc… We have decent TV both places w Sonos soundbar….. we don’t suffer much… |
almost forgot…we also in a very mutual way support musical arts by hosting a house concert most years and a recording studio / production company - great couple, great artists and they have a very high plowback ratio, Engineer sound guy has helped produce pro bono something like 6 - 10 albums during COVID. Patreon is a good thing….. |
Finally, some great shared music while driving experience…one very memorable..coming out of Canada after a long week of fishing together ( with no music ), the Indy College radio station in Bellingham was playing a Train album straight thru….. First time we had heard Train…..hooked us both….. |
@puffball08 yes that must be the one - I think that story dates from 1998, but that border and I have a love hate relationship- I normally keep my boat on W side Vancouver Island, so I have killed a lot of time near the Peace Arch…,
are you up here ??? Pac nw ? |
Yes… already laying pipe for stealthy record day |
we are newbie at 31. We don’t agree on everything, but why marry yourself ? Tim , there are days when i wish i could plug my ears, sounds like i need MORE time in Bellingham… ha
|
@tgilb my wife and i both adore Natalie, her birthday we caught her in San Fran at the Warfield….freaking awesome
hope they play Bleezers Ice Cream at my funeral…. from Leave Your Sleep….
ya man |
We are winters in Carsbad , I am going to have get together there… Turntable crowd…. Decent horse derbers |
Blue Rodeo - Tremelo fits that North Americana mold…. |
Emmylou Harris - Cimarron |
I keep a Loggins and Messina album for the great song - Same Old Wine ( and as I recall heard that for first time driving 5 late at night in N. Calif… headed South.
some good College radio in the N Calif stretch…
Same Old Wine - best played loud !!! |
Sarah Jarosz - Blue Heron Suite
There has been for many years a Great Blue Heron print in our listening room and most years a nesting Heron in the big Fir just outside - I always wonder IF my music bothers them…. |
|
Vinyl Archeologists we are…. |
|
Gillian Welch - Soul Journey
always impressed with Gillian and David… |
ah yes somebody selling something you don’t yet have….i got my Two Against Nature LP from a Discogs vendor named “ Giant Leech “…. for 2X RSD in store price…. above that, i don’t wanna play and ( for me ) having that particular disc bordered on obsession… |
since i spend time in recording studios, mastering, mobile recording….and i work with a great mentor and engineer…i am acutely aware of intentional distortion and downstream effects….great care need be taken in the SS ( if any ) parts of the chain…. Our belief is upper harmonics and IM, TIM are at work mucking things up….. I will listen to album you guys are citing and see, but its likely not the microphone itself, that overdrive and breakup is not clean, the mic amp likely…..fun… |
i was lucky, never had a Vinyl destroyer in family…Dad had Dual w Shure Type II, my first system at 17 was $75 ( gulp Grado Black ), Denon DP-790 W table, Onkyo A-5 Integrated ( Class A to 5 w )…and Infinity Qb…it was completely bad A…
Lucky bastard, I know… |
