Everything is sounding superb now with the now broken-in Sussurro, it's hard to quit listening. The Pumpkins lp was sounding really good but it is a 3 lp set, so on to other thing.

@reubent ,
It'd be an interesting comparison to the OP/Virgin. You don't happen to have both do you?

The J Geils Band "S/T" Speakers Corner/F---ing Fantastsic! |
Drive-By Truckers "Southern Rock Opera" OP/SQ = EX |
Hard Working Americans "We're All in This Together" |
Traffic "John Barleycorn Must Die"
Ordered the new box set from Amazon uk.
|
Eels "Soul Jacker"!!! .........…......……......…......…...... @uberwaltz,
Seriously speaking, I think it would be hard for any one to get too much Luna.

@millercarbon,
Is the EJ lp a DJM (Dick James Music) pressing? In the dead wax...is there a funny word like strawberry?
|
Yes "S/T" 50th Anniversary/AAA pressing./SQ = Amazing! |
|
+1
I saw AE in a small local club a couple years ago. He’s such a wonderful artist. (I’m getting chills writing this) Down to earth, no pretence,REAL!
FWIW, did you know Sheila E is a relative? |
Norman Greenbaum "Petaluma"
A couple years ago, I set out on a search for N G lps. I happily found his 3 lps on WLP.
|
@jamesclarke,
There’s a thread in the (analog category) someone started where I kind of went through what I was hearing throughout the break-in process...….something like "SoundsSmith Star - Sussurro".
I should be easy to find. If you don’t let me know.

Night Ranger "Dawn Patrol" |
@bdp24 ,
Wow brother! I may have some of the 45s by the groups you mentioned. The Chocolate Watch band....
|
Allman Brothers "Live @ Fillmore East" pink/Capricorn
aggravating that this was pressed for record changers....
|
John Hiatt "Same Old Man" |
Yes "The Yes Album" 45 rpm/Friday Music |
I like the description you made of your gear @sourpuss123. Very unique and effective. |
@drrsutliff ,
Did Kevin have you align his mower belts while you were there?
Wally-Tractor |
Redd Kross "Beyond the Door"
First time, so indulge me. |
@sammyshaps,
Welcome and glad you're here.
|
I'm pleasantly surprised at how good "The Search" is sounding. Nice punchy, clear bass, not bright or etched. |
I just ordered a proper record flattener after years of wanting one. I'll report on it after it arrives and have some useful info. |
Son Volt "The Search" re-mastered |
@reubent ,
I've had several posts directed at you...no response.
|
Ozark Mountain Daredevils "It'll Shine When it Shines"
Hell Yeah!
|
Time to quit f....ing around......I've wanted this lp for years. Tried to find it to no avail. Recently ran across the MOV re-issue at a deep discount and scooped it up...………………………..
Shuggie Otis "Here Comes Shuggie Otis"...….turn it up!!!!!
|
…...now. Where’s that "Greatest Guitar Player" thread?...…......
and that, my friends, is a guitar masterpiece!
|
Had a bright idea...going to play an lp I picked up last weekend.....Allman Brothers Band "Fillmore East (Feb 1970)" Bear's sonic journal. One year earlier than the lp above. Same venue. |
Well I'll say The Allman Brothers Band "Fillmore East Feb 1970" (Bear's Sonic Journal) is a sonic mess! Pass it bye. |
"This is Buddy Guy!" OP/Vanguard |
Regarding The Allman Brothers comparison.....
The 1970 version starts off with "In Memory of Elizabeth Reid".... it’s obvious that the band hasn’t found their groove yet. Thinking about it....it’s pretty amazing that they sounded sooo much better on the later lp, like a couple of years had gone by instead of several months.
The sonics aren’t as good. Let me rephrase that....there is a different microphone set-up, the soundstage is narrower. A completely different set-up for sure. It doesn’t sound awful, just not nearly as good. "Statesboro Blues"...bass is AWAL.

@reubent ,
I've used the Vinyl Flat for years, ever since it's inception. It works, it just requires a lot of attention. Also, it's latest iteration, with the latest heating element, is a step backwards IMO.
I ordered the ORB DP-01iA. It's similar to the Furutech/Air Tight machines.
|
Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit "Sirens of the Ditch" |
Above....One hell of a record! ……………………………...……..... The Jayhawks "Rainy Day Music"
|
|
Hiss Golden Messenger "Heart Like a Levee" …………………………….. @reubent ,
How one feels or one's mindset is an important part of one's enjoyment of music.
|
Patty Griffin "1000 Kisses" Wow wow wow! |
The SQ on the above EP is Ex! I will play the studio lp in a little while.
Bob Seger "Beautiful Loser" OP/orange label/Capitol, I pulled this out last night (this morning actually) and laid down, and succumbed to sleep.
|
Ronnie Montrose "The Speed of Sound" !!! |
@reubent
I’ll tell you, I ordered mine from the distributor for hundreds off. Still it is a chunk of change. For me, it’s worth it if it works as promised. ……...……...………………………...….........……. Courtney Barnett RSD/12" two song disc/from the "Tell Me How You Really Feel" sessions. "Small Talk" & "Everybody Here Hates You" 45rpm

"Beautiful Loser" is such an excellent record. It should be in everyone's collection. |
Modest Mouse "This is a Long Drive for Someone With Nothing to Think About" |
