Whats on your turntable tonight?


For me its the first or very early LP's of:
Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South"
Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue
Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer"
and,
Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
slipknot1

The Beatles "White Album"

UK/Blue Box/stereo

decided to compare side one of each

this is a problem because the song sequence isn’t the same 

Can say "Back In The U.S.S.R." is like two completely different listening experiences. The stereo version is shouty, the mono is more controlled but lacking dynamics/air.

Can also say the rest of side one of the stereo UK sounds very good! I actually sold my original MFSL after I compared the two a while back.

YES - “Fragile” 

Analogue Productions / Atlantic 75 Anniversary Series

2 x 45 rpm 180g 

@slaw...it's sold out already in almost every Beatles Store, so I'm sure the price will come down a little, but you never know.  More demand might increase the price...

CIGARETTES AFTER SEX - “X’s”

2024 - Partisan Records, Spanish Prayers RE

+1 Black Sabbath @slaw, I just got a Paranoid Rhino …
