Ex SQ

@tgilb @slaw I too preordered Déjà Vu to replace my 1970 original and am hoping for the best. The last couple reissues I’ve received were not so great. I agree with @mammothguy54 on the digital sounding Thick As A Brick compared to my original and MFSL’s 45rpm of Brothers In Arms generally doesn’t surpass my original copy’s SQ and imaging.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. Any of you watch the video Chad released recently? He says he's booked for the next 10 years, then retire.
|
@slaw
Roger that. I'll be sure to post my thoughts when the album is received and given a serious listen. It is an Atlantic Records remaster sold through Acoustic Sounds so unfortunately not from Analog Productions.
I've got a long list of albums that I wish Analog Productions would consider and release.

@tgilb ,
I meant to play my Classic Records "Deja Vu" recently and it slipped my mind. Let us know how the AS pressing sounds. Seems like Chad would've done a UHQR with that title?
|
C,S,N&Y - Deja Vu
1970 Atlantic Records
The title track is a beautiful and complex David Crosby masterpiece.
My original early pressing with great Audiophile SQ but with just a bit more background noise from the years than I care for so I have placed a preorder for the soon to be released 2021 remaster from Acoustic Sounds. Says it is pressed at Optimal in Germany. Hope I'm not disappointed.

Everything sounded above average with Don Henley taking last place with a slight digital edge. 24 Carrots SQ is outstanding! SQ winner tonight, could be a demo disc need to spin again. TLC is one of Ms. Wilson's best. Words can't describe Poetry. Might be Stan's last great recording.

hey @bslon Terry Allen on Austin City Limits this week. Can probably find it online.
Thanks, I’ve seen it and it’s great! Recommended!
|
The two Dirty Knobs LPS, Wreckless Abandon & External Combustion. For those not familiar this is Mike Campbell’s group, formerly of Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. Mike purposely stays out of the Tom Petty lane with more of a hard rock quartet and no keyboards. Both great records and recommended.

@dayglow I was able to pick it up for 40 bucks and couldn't resist. I haven't gotten very far into it, the phone rang a couple of times, but the vinyl appears to be in close to pristine condition and sounds great.
