Recent vinyl returnee. I have vinyl from the 70s mostly (bought then) and some from the 80s.I dont get the whole 180g or 200g re-release thing. What is the point? If you are using a good turntable mat like a hexmat eclipse and a turntable clamp or weight what does it matter? What does a heavier record do? Is all my vinyl from the 70s crap? Doesnt seem like it?
|
Fremer recommended a new-ish release of Waltz For Debbie and man...it sounds so much better than any other version I've heard...no wobbly piano, you can actually hear the drums and cymbals, etc. Highly recommended.

@paqua123 ,
Heavy weight vinyl records supposedly provide a more damped product for hopefully increased listener received information. I have Dynaflex lps that sound great.
One title that was originally released on Dynaflex vinyl that is still highly regarded is Hot Tuna "Recorded Live at the New Orleans, Berkeley House.
|
I dont think ill be re-buying copies of my old vinyl then
|
Another Dynaflex that’s great...... Janis Ian "Between The Lines"
|
The Rosebuds "Sand+Silence"

@paqua123...I have thousands of records from the 70's & 80's. Some are really good and some are really awful. It depends on the mastering, who mastered it, where it was mastered, where it was pressed, the materials used, etc.
I am not from the camp that all original pressings are better, because I have just as many from both sides that are good and bad. YMMV.

Halfspeed masters! that's what they called them. Was that just a gimmick?

Hmm i read that article. The half speed masters I have are all played at 33 not faster. Weird.

@mofimadness - Do you know the Canadian Band - The Trews? Saw them open for dada a few years ago and they could really bring it live. Hit or miss on their studio recordings, but they were really good live.
How about Metric? There 2009 album - "Fantasies" is pretty good. I especially like the song - "Blindness".
Happy listening!

@reubent...never heard of The Trews or Metric. Qobuz has most of their stuff, I’ll need to listen to them. Thanks for the recommendation!
